“Lower your hand,” she said, helping him put on the bracelet.
He complied, turning around as Ariana whispered, “Don’t take it off.
It’s our first couple’s bracelet. I searched high and low for a design that combined our names.”
Once Theodore had the bracelet on, Ariana turned around and extended her wrist for him to return the

With sincerity in his eyes, he fastened the bracelet on her wrist and promised, “I won’t take it off.”

“I’m not great at knitting, and I ran out of time. I almost failed to finish it…” Ariana said, her voice fading
with uncertainty. She even wondered if she should buy him a new hat instead.

Ariana was caught off guard and asked in a puzzled tone, “Why all of a sudden?”
“The results of your final check-up came out a few days ago, and your health is good enough to meet
the surgical requirements,” Theodore replied gently.
