𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟔𝐭𝐡, 1981 --- Three hours before the incident.
Angel found herself smiling at the sight of wilted ring of baby's breath that she'd weaved for Eddie a few nights ago. Smiling was an understatement, she practically beamed as bright as the sun when she'd realized he'd hadn't taken it off when she'd seen him a few moments ago.
