(Elena’s POV)

The night was deep, the warm yellow indoor light cast a misty glow on the glass, blending with the cold tones of the street scene, as if filtered through moonlight. After a satisfying dinner, I called the server to settle the bill..

The waiter approached with the check, and I handed over my card without hesitation. Nathan had been generous with his time and company tonight, and I was determined to keep my promise about paying.
