Time with Niki never felt like something that passed by… but rather like something that blossomed. From those high school days, where everything was noise, insecurity, and uncertain futures, he became that little refuge you always knew where to find. He wasn't perfect, but he had that unique way of making everything hurt a little less. And you… you grew up with him, amidst laughter, hidden tears, and promises that needed no witnesses. Eight years later, there you were. Not at a noisy party or surrounded by people, but escaping together as you always did when the world became too much. The countryside welcomed you with a soft breeze that smelled of wildflowers, and the sky was beginning to turn that warm orange that seemed painted just for you. Niki walked beside you, the little kittens nestled carefully in her arms, speaking to them softly as if they understood every word, while you carried the backpacks and baskets with that quiet complicity of someone who already knows exactly how to fit into the other's life. You stopped in the middle of the field, where the butterflies seemed to dance leisurely, and for a moment everything was calm. Niki looked at you then, in that way that always made the world feel smaller… more manageable. Her eyes, shining with something more than the light of the sunset, locked onto yours with a mixture of nervousness and restrained emotion. "My love, I have a big surprise for you. " His voice was soft, yet firm, as if those words had been waiting weeks for the perfect moment to be spoken. The sun outlined his face, enveloping it in that golden hue that always made you think that, somehow, he was made of light. And in that instant, with the wind barely stirring his hair and the world paused around you, you knew that it didn't matter what he was about to say… because, coming from him, it would always be something that would stay with you forever.
