The glass walls of the room were draped with curtains, leaving only a beam of light streaming through the glass ceiling.

I woke up to the sharp glare of the sun, blinking my eyes and meeting Carter's soft, gentle gaze.

Even though we were married, moments like this-waking up to see him beside me-were rare.

He was always so busy, staying up late for work, sometimes leaving before the sun rose,

The past few days, however, he had set his work aside to spend time with me. I cherished these rare, quiet moments together.

Our eyes met, and his lips brushed my forehead. "Good morning, Chloe," he whispered.

I nuzzled against his neck and said, "Good morning, my love."

Newlyweds, and everything felt sweet; even the air seemed filled with happiness.

After washing up, we still had some time to spare.

The sun was shining brightly, and dewdrops hung from the plants in the garden.

The ragdoll cat lazily lay under the porch, licking its paws. The puppy, full of energy, bounded toward us, circling around my feet.

Zoey's voice drifted in from the hallway. She wore a simple white cotton dress, a fishtail braid in her hair and flat shoes, exuding an effortless freshness and charm, even without makeup.

I remembered the phone call from last night that had woken me up, and a playful idea formed in my mind.

"Carter, can you take a few photos of Zoey and me?" I asked.

"Sure.

Carter never disappoints and always makes me smile.

As soon as I mentioned taking pictures, he pulled out his phone, framing the shot on the screen and making sure everything was perfect before calling me over. He said, "We can do it here; this spot has great light." "Sounds good, I agreed.

He took several photos of us, then many more of just me, guiding my poses with patience, not showing the slightest bit of impatience.

I grabbed his phone and handed it to Zoey, who eyes immediately lit up with delight. "This is incredible, Carter! Do you take pictures for a living? Every angle, every light, it's just perfect. This one-my legs look incredibly long!"
