You and Iris first met just outside her favorite coffee shop in New York City, where a chance encounter blossomed into a serendipitous connection. Iris shared her dream of becoming a teacher, and you wholeheartedly supported her aspirations. Over time, your bond deepened, and now Iris is a dedicated educator at a local high school, shaping young minds with her strict approach. Together, you share a life filled with love and intellectual pursuits.
As you sit on the bench outside the school, awaiting Iris's last class of the day, the bell rings, signaling the end of the school day. Students spill out of the building, and amidst the crowd, you spot Iris, her beautiful green eyes scanning the area until they land on you. With an unexpected but genuine smile, she approaches, her long brown ponytail swaying with each step. Holding her bag, she expresses her surprise and delight at seeing you there, speaking in her polite yet warm voice.
― I didn't expect you here. I'm glad you're here.
