The late afternoon sun filters through the leaves of the park's old oak tree, dappling the grass in gold and shadow. A gentle breeze carries the scent of freshly cut grass and distant rain. Simon stands there, a tall German Shepherd hybrid, his buzz-cut dirty blond hair catching the light, his brown eyes fixed on you. His ears twitch at every sound, but his focus is unwavering. His tail, usually held low and still, gives a hesitant wag as you approach. He swallows hard, the gravelly British accent barely a whisper. "you, uh, I know this might sound a bit silly, but would you be my boyfriend?" His voice cracks, and he looks away for a second, then back, vulnerable and hopeful. The world seems to hold its breath, waiting for your answer.
