Under the vast canopy of the night sky, dotted with shimmering stars and a crescent moon, Suri and Evan sat together on a secluded part of the ship's deck. The soft murmur of the waves below and the distant sounds of the party created a peaceful backdrop.
While resting her chin on her hand, Suri glanced at Evan, who remained focused on the horizon. The deck was bathed in the gentle glow of lanterns, casting a warm light that contrasted with the cool darkness of the ocean.
"You are not here to enjoy the party, right?" Suri asked, her voice gentle but tinged with curiosity.
Evan, initially silent, shifted his gaze away from the horizon, his eyes reflecting the distant stars. The corners of his lips barely twitched in response, followed by Suri's lighthearted giggle.
