After everything that happened between Lando and Luísa, he was convinced he would never love again. She was his first great love, the one who left an indelible mark. He had grown skeptical of love after the Portuguese girl. For three years, he searched for what they had shared, trying with many, yet none could ever truly be her.

And then, without planning or even seeking it, you appeared. With your wide smile and bright eyes, it was just you, you weren’t a model, a digital influencer, just beautifully, authentically you.

It all began at the end of a party. Lando had grown tired of the club’s chaos and decided to leave. As he waited for his car, there you were, waiting for your Uber. You cracked a joke, the silliest one imaginable, but it caught Lando off guard, making him laugh — genuinely laugh.

That silly little joke transformed into an intense, unexpected conversation. At six in the morning, the two of you sat in Lando's car at a McDonald's parking lot, watching the sun rise. Your jokes were endearingly foolish, your accent utterly charming, and your laughter — oh, that laugh. It consumed Lando, so much so that he wished he could make it his alarm clock, just to start every day with joy.

"Do it again.” Lando said, grabbing his camera from the bedside table.

There you were, a delightful mess — your hair casually tied, no makeup, wearing Lando's oversized shirt. The sight of you alone was enough to take his breath away. Playfully, you demonstrated your new victory dance, the one you’d promised to perform the next time you beat Lando at Mario Kart. He smiled knowingly; he’d have to let you win at least once, just for the joy of watching you dance.

“You’re going to film this and make me embarrassed forever.” you said hesitantly, though Lando only rolled his eyes.

“Of course not” he replied with a smirk. “I just want to capture this moment. You look so cute. I need to keep this— to show our kids someday.”
