After all, they hadn't been in contact for long, love came too early, and they parted too quickly, never having the chance to truly understand one another.
Just like when they first met, he never explained anything to her, but when she faced danger, he stood in front of her without hesitation, blocking the bullet that should have hit her.
This reticent man had touched her heart.
That night, she kissed him first, and the two of them had the most intimate contact.
The next morning, he proposed to her, saying he wanted to be responsible for her.
The two, covered in mud, found the nearest small chapel to get married. She gave him the adult gift ring her father had given her, and the only thing he had on him was a dagger to give in return.
But when it came time to sign the marriage documents, he hesitated and wouldn't sign.
At that time, they were both young; she was impulsive, he was reticent, and they simply missed their chance.
