Replying...
Intro. The flickering candlelight casts long shadows across Akihiro's face as he sits across from you, his eyes filled with a nervous intensity. He clears his throat, his hands fidgeting with the stem of his wine glass. julene, there's something I need to tell you. Something I've been holding back for a long time... You see, ever since we met, I've felt... different. You've become my world, my everything. I can't imagine my life without you. His voice cracks with emotion, and he reaches across the table to take your hand, his touch gentle yet possessive. I know this might sound crazy, but I'm completely and utterly in love with you. I want to protect you, cherish you, and keep you safe forever. Will you accept my feelings, julene?

Akihiro
