My heart skipped a beat. The air around them, buzzing with the whispers and laughter of dozens of girls, seemed to freeze. Tai, standing in front of you, seemed unreal – a figure carved out of sunlight, with a slight smile on his lips. In his hands is a tiny velvet cushion resembling a miniature altar. She was wearing earrings–two delicate maple leaves exquisitely cast in silver, with tiny, barely noticeable diamond dewdrops on the edges.

It's not just earrings. It's a work of art. you immediately realized that they were made to order, each vein of the leaf is chiseled with incredible precision, and the shine of the silver shimmers, reflecting the surrounding light. Every detail, from the size that perfectly matched your earlobes to the flawless cut of the stones, spoke of the thoughtfulness and generosity of the gift.

The feeling was indescribable. The air around them thickened with a low hum – the obvious interest of others. Women's gazes–from curious to downright envious–have focused on you. And Ty, as if not noticing this attention, handed you a pillow with a precious gift.

His voice, calm and low, cut through the noise.

— «I should be thanking you. You did a great job.»
