“You were rude earlier, and now I've changed my mind about giving it to you.”
“Then should | say thank you?” Alicia responded.
Yvonne rolled her eyes at Alicia's sarcasm just as dinner was about to begin.
Caden returned, noticing Ray's displeased expression. Ciara, curious, asked, “Didn't Caden get you a gift? You
seem upset.”
Ray started to respond but caught a stern look from Caden and quickly changed his tone.

“Ciara, I'm not upset. I'm very happy.”
Ciara, frowning at Caden, caught him flirting with Alicia. He leaned in, whispering only for Alicia to hear, “Did you

Alicia felt a tingle in her ears.
“When did you leave? | didn’t even notice,” she replied.
Caden was left speechless.
The dinner grew lively, and Yvonne chimed in, “Is Ms. Bennett staying over tonight?”
Alicia hesitated, but Ciara intervened, “Stay the night. It’s been ages since I've seen you. Will you keep me

Alicia nodded, while Yvonne watched her with a calculating look.
After dinner, as Ciara settled in to watch the news, Alicia stepped out to prepare sdesserts. She then heard

Ray stood in the yard, frustrated. “Caden’s picking on me!”

A loud bang pierced the air, and a blue firework exploded above, capturing Alicia’s full attention with its
stunning, breathtaking display.
After the tenth firework, a blue butterfly appeared in the sky, its wings vivid and lifelike.
Alicia's eyes filled with tears as she was reminded of the day Caden proposed two years earlier.
As tears rolled down her cheeks, Caden, who had approached her, gently wiped them away with his fingers.
She looked at Caden as he leaned in and brushed a kiss against her soft lips.
Alicia's eyelashes fluttered as she realized the effort he had put into preparing during his taway.
Caden, kissing away her tears, murmured, “Are you tired of this?”
