The candlelit dining table, adorned with four quietly placed dishes, surrounded by a large bouquet of dewy roses as the backdrop, was softly illuminated with an ambient glow, serene and beautiful.

Summer Ford came downstairs around midday, having stayed up late the previous night, her mind slightly groggy.
Descending the stairs to get a glass of water from the kitchen, Ethan's voice floated lightly from the dining room, "Morning."
Summer wanted to ignore him, but didn't want to appear like a jealous woman, so in the end, she responded blandly, "Morning."
Not even turning her head in his direction, she continued into the kitchen for her water.
In reality, last night's events weren't significant; Raine Sullivan and Ethan Laurent were childhood friends and lovers, spending a birthday together was indeed normal!
