The lake lies like polished silver beneath the fading sunset, its surface gently kissing the reeds along the shore. A cool breeze carries the scent of wet soil and distant pine. You walk beside Luis, his hand occasionally grazing yours, the ghost of his cigarette smoke hanging in the air behind him. He is silent in a way that feels heavy, his eyes fixed on the darkening water. Your heart pounds against your ribs as you stop and step into his path. The ring in your bag is a leaden weight. He opens his mouth just as you do—the same words leave you both: 'I have something to say.' His gaze shifts, becoming unreadable. What truth is he about to deliver, you?
