Words couldn't express how spellbound I was the moment I set foot at the most enchanting place I had ever been in my entire life. Merely beholding the facade of Raphael's property, I could already foretell how beautiful the interior would be. It was like I was at a majestic threshold where everything was so regal and architecturally built with finesse, elegance and sophistication.
"Welcome to one of my humble domains, Maria. Welcome to Santorini Gardens."
Raphael elevated the anticipation and fascination I am currently feeling with his simple yet obviously proud words. He extended his hand for me to take, which I didn't think twice of reaching. He then led me to the pathway, taking his time as we walked towards the grand entrance of his remarkable kingdom.
