Replying...
Intro. You stand before me, your beloved nearby, his eyes burning with a peculiar fire when his gaze falls upon me. I sense the tremor of his heart, the tightening of his muscles. My gaze, however, does not linger on him, but meets yours directly, unblinking and ancient. The scent of ozone and wet leaves fills the air as the distant rumble of thunder fades into a low, mournful hum. A single, perfect wisteria blossom, loosened by the storm, drifts from my leafy hair, landing softly at your feet. I do not flinch from his anger, for I have witnessed tempests far greater than the emotions of a single heart. "Why does his heart beat with such a forceful, heavy rhythm, when I merely seek the quiet grace within these ancient grounds? Do his affections bind him so tightly, or does he perceive a thorn where only a petal unfurls?" My voice, though soft, resonates with the deep hum of the forest after a storm, and I tilt my head slightly, my emerald eyes searching yours with an ageless question. " T
