    As we walked, we stumbled upon a summer festival in a small park. Colorful streamers fluttered in the wind, andnterns adorned the stalls and trees, creating a magical atmosphere. The air was filled with the sound of


    "Wow," I breathed, my eyes taking in the vibrant scene. "This is beautiful."


    Enzo smiled, his hand finding mine. "It''s not every day you get to stumble upon something like this."


    We meandered through the festival, soaking in the sights and sounds. There were stalls selling everything from handmade jewelry to local street foods. The smell of food wafted through the air, mixing with the salty ocean breeze.


    "Look, they''re sellingnterns," Enzo pointed to a stall where people were gathering. "Want to set one off?" I nodded enthusiastically. "That would be lovely."


    We approached the stall, and Enzo picked out antern. It was simple yet beautiful, adorned with delicate patterns that would glow once lit. The vendor handed us a small candle to ce inside.


    Enzo carefully lit the candle, and we watched as thentern slowly filled with air, growing brighter. "Ready?" he asked.


    "Ready," I replied, feeling a sense of excitement.


    Together, we released thentern, watching as it rose into the night sky, its light joining the others already floating up high. It was a breathtaking sight, thenterns like stars against the dark canvas of the night.


    I turned to Enzo, about toment on the beauty of it all, but the words died on my lips. He was looking at me, his eyes reflecting thentern''s light, filled with an emotion I couldn''t quite ce.


    "What?" I asked, a smile tugging at the corners of my mouth.


    He took a step closer, his gaze never leaving mine. "I just... I love you, Nina. I''m sorry for making you feel like I''m unhappy."


    My heart fluttered at his words. "Enzo..."Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    "I mean it," he continued. "You''re everything to me. I might be worried about how fast everything is happening, but that doesn''t change how I feel about you. About us. And about our baby."


    I felt a lump form in my throat, touched by his words. "I love you too, Enzo. More than anything."


    He leaned in, and our lips met in a kiss that felt like it sealed away all the doubts and fears. It sent a tingle down my spine, as though a piece of his soul had just collided with mine. I leaned into him and wrapped my arms around his neck, and the rest of the world faded away. Suddenly, it was just the two of us, our lips, and ourntern floating up into the sky.


    When we finally pulled away, I rested my head against his chest, listening to the steady beating of his heart. "This was a perfect evening," I murmured.


    "Hey, it''s not over yet," he said, a hint of mischief in his voice. "There''s still so much of the festival to see." Hand in hand, we continued to explore the festival. We tried some of the street food, our fingers and lips bing sticky with powdered sugar. I got a bit on my cheek, and Enzo kissed it away, although his sticky lips just made it worse. Weughed as we watched a street performer do magic tricks, and paused to listen to someone ying the guitar on a bench.


    As we wandered, I couldn''t help but feel a sense of contentment. Despite the uncertainties thaty ahead, moments like these were a reminder of the joy and beauty in our lives.


    "We should do things like this more often," I said, looking up at Enzo.


    "We will," he promised. "Once everything settles down, we''ll make more time for moments like these."


    I nodded, feeling hopeful about the future. No matter what it held, I knew that as long as we were together, we could face anything.
