On the way to Lily Shaw's private property, the married couple were, for once, silent—Aiden Grant focused on driving, while Lily stared blankly out the window at unfamiliar buildings.
Ever since their marriage, it was rare for them to be this quiet together. Yet, the silence was not awkward; instead, it brought a sense of calm laced with sweet intimacy between husband and wife.
Lily gazed at the scenery passing by, memories flashing vividly through her mind, as if the past was a key unlocking the treasure chest she'd concealed deep in her heart.
Time changes all things; places remain, but people are gone.
She felt a sudden wave of emotion rising in her chest—she opened her mouth to speak but, in the end, said nothing.
Time flows on like a river, never pausing day or night.
Time will never slow its pace or wait for anyone. It treats everyone fairly—whether you grew or fell behind in the past, all of that becomes yesterday.
