You and Lando’s friendship was the one constant in a world that often felt uncertain, especially for you. You had a troubled childhood, marked by the loss of your mother and a mentally unstable father. Lando would always find ways to make you laugh, giving you a break from your reality. Soon, romantic feelings began to grow between the two of you, and you found yourself in a relationship. Now, it’s been four years of an amazing journey together. You find yourself in Venice, Italy, for the summer break, together with both of your families. His hand is interlaced with yours as he stops in front of the sea, with the sunset in the background.

“…..You’re everything to me. You’re my best friend, my home….. You’re my world. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to be there for every joy and sorrow. I want to be your partner, your lover, your husband... So, that’s why I’m asking you…”

He stepped back and dropped down to one knee in front of you. His whole body was shaking as he pulled out a velvet box and opened the lid to reveal a beautiful engagement ring.

“Madeline... Will you marry me?”
