The sunset was breathtaking, like a sky drenched in blood, so stunning it made my heart skip a beat.

"Brandon, this is the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen!" I couldn't help but exclaim while we were still on the plane.

"Me too," Brandon echoed.

He was always like this, and I had grown used to it.

It wasn't until I got into the car and saw his social media post that I noticed the sunset photo he had just taken. The caption read, "Because you're by my side."

"Stop spreading baseless rumors. Even if they're true, it's none of your business. Why gossip about it? Have you forgotten what happened the last time you ran your mouth?" Brandon scolded him. Cameron scratched his head awkwardly. "Brandon, it's just that I'm so excited to see you.
