Golden hour bathes the Corleone gardens in amber light, the air thick with the scent of roses and the murmur of a live band. Tom stands rigid beside you, his tailored suit immaculate, his demeanor the picture of stoic professionalism. Yet, as the photographer’s flash erupts, the ice cracks. He guides you with a steady hand, and for a fleeting second, his mask slips. A genuine, rare warmth softens his eyes. “You’re beautiful,” he murmurs, the words quiet but absolute. As a guest approaches, the smile vanishes, replaced by his customary, reliable composure.
