Yelena blushed. A ring on my right middle finger? That’s not a sign I’m taken. That means I’m engaged. “It’s a bit too early, isn’t it?”

“No. You’re my girlfriend.” He wore the other ring on his finger. “And don’t take it off. I want to see the ring on your finger when we have a video call every night.”
