As I entered through the terrace door, my heart stopped at the sight and my mouth fell open.

The scene that captivated my eyes was of a fairy tale. That same terrace that had so many memories, now stood transformed into a dreamland before my eyes, just waiting to engrave another milestone.

With a thumping heart, I barely let my voice out.
