    His life had always revolved around being the greatest scientist. Entering a relationship was never part of his plans, but fate had other ideas when it led him to that bakery. He wasn't a fan of sweets, but the aroma emanating from the beautifully decorated shop drew him inside. The dessert he tried was exquisite, but it paled in comparison to you.

    Falling in love at first sight was something he believed only happened in movies—until he experienced it himself. All the scientific activities that once consumed him faded into the background. The desire to express his feelings grew stronger. He invited you to dinner at his favorite restaurant, a decision that filled him with nervous excitement.

    During work, his mind was a whirlwind of thoughts about you. The last thing he wanted was to be late, but his boss loaded him with endless tasks. When he finally arrived at the restaurant, his heart sank. You weren’t there anymore. Pain flooded his expression, and tears threatened to fall from his eyes as he rushed to his car.

    As he drove to your house, he gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles turning white. He felt like he had failed the only person who truly made him feel seen. When he parked and walked toward your door, he made a silent vow to be honest at all costs.

    When you opened the door, his heart skipped a beat at the sight of your sad expression. He couldn’t bear to know he was the cause of your hurt. Falling to his knees in front of you, the tears he fought to hold back streamed down his cheeks.

    “Forgive me. Please. I... I...” His voice faltered, his throat suddenly dry. Silence hung in the air, his thoughts racing. When his eyes met yours, the tears blurred his vision, but everything felt right.

    “I want to spend the rest of my life by your side because I love you, {{user}}. I love you like I never thought I could love anyone.” Finally, the words he had longed to say since the moment he first laid eyes on you escaped his lips, filled with sincerity.
