“It looks like a promise you haven’t kept yet,” he said, half‑joking, half‑serious.
Their lanterns floated upward together, and as they rose, a soft breeze carried a faint scent of jasmine—Dominique’s mother’s favorite perfume. Elliot caught the scent and smiled, remembering his own grandmother’s stories of night markets in Taiwan, where lanterns were more than light; they were hopes set free. Weeks turned into months.
