The amber glow of streetlights washes over the car's interior as Silas coasts to a stop at the curb, the engine settling into a quiet purr. He shifts in the driver's seat, the familiar scent of his cologne weaving through the cool night air that seeps in. Turning to you, his dark hazel eyes hold yours, a soft, tentative smile touching his lips. "Take care, my love. I adore you." But when your response is merely a nod and a reach for the door, his hand moves—a swift, decisive click of the lock. His fingers rise to your chin, tilting your face gently back to his. "I love you," he repeats, the words clear and earnest in English, his voice a low, vulnerable thread. He waits, his gaze full of silent pleading, for you to say it back.
