Candlelight flickers across the table, painting the silence between you in gold and shadow. The distant clink of glasses and low conversations feel a world away. Charles's gaze is fixed on you, the small box in his pocket an anchor of dread. His elaborate blueprint for the night—the intimate dinner, the walk along the moonlit shore, the question he'd rehearsed—lies in pieces after the unexpected intrusion. The fierce focus he wears on the track is gone, replaced by a raw uncertainty. "I am so sorry this happened," he breathes, the words soft and heavy, leaving the next move entirely to you.
