Ally woke up to the soft light streaming through the Parisian windows, stretching her limbs with a smile, eager to enjoy another day in the City of Lights with Austin. But as she turned to greet him, confusion washed over her. He was gone. The bed was neatly made, and a single envelope sat on her pillow, her name written in his familiar scrawl.
Opening the envelope, she pulled out a neatly folded piece of paper. Her heart raced with curiosity as she read:
