She looked up at Zachary, who sat in front holding her hand. After all this time, they were holding hands again.
She couldn't tell if the feeling in her heart was more bitter or sweet. Usually, Sarah would have pulled away
without hesitation, but this time, for reasons she couldn't explain, she remained silent.
For the first time, she wanted to follow her heart's true desires, just this once. She couldn't deny her feelings for
Zachary - how she had hoped he would cfind her, hold her hand just like this.
His tall figure kept shifting left and right, shielding her from passing pedestrians. He was protecting her.
Finally, they reached the riverside, where most couples had gathered to set their lights afloat on the water.
Sarah found herself gently pushed to the riverside by the crowd, with Zachary staying close to protect her.
She noticed the couples around them writing both their names and wishes on their floating lights, while hers only
had her name.
"Wait a moment!" she suddenly said, turning away from the riverside.
Zachary watched her, confused, and started to follow, but Sarah stopped him. "Wait here - it's crowded and we
were lucky to find this spot by the edge." "Alright." Zachary watched her disappear into the crowd, holding the

Zachary reached out to take what she offered - another floating light, this one with his non it.
His heart warmed as they stood side by side at the river's edge, setting their two lights afloat together on the
water.
Sarah's light read, "May Sasa always be safe and well."
While Zachary's read, "May Zachary always find happiness."
The two lights drifted together, floating further away, as if they were meant to be
one.
Across the river, Steven and Scarlett released their own light together.
Scarlett watched their light drift away, clasping her hands together to make one more wish.
After the lights disappeared from view, Sarah stood up again. Zachary pointed toward a pavilion, "We can watch
the fireworks from there later."
Sarah was surprised he remembered such details. They walked to the pavilion as night had fully fallen.

Sarah excitedly covered her ears, remembering the fireworks he had set off for her that night on the hillside.
