What she wanted was a unique and everlasting companionship, as well as a commitment. What she wanted, he didn’t understand, nor could he give...

"Jose Floyd—" Nicole called out.

Jose Floyd stopped in his tracks, looking back at the person behind him.

Nicole smiled gently, though her heart felt a bit desolate, "Have you ever tried to love someone? I mean... how should I put it? You want to give her everything, want to grow old with her, want to hold her hand in old age, watching the sunrise and sunset together, strolling in the streets at dusk. Has such a person appeared in your world?"

"Appear or not, doesn’t matter." Jose Floyd replied indifferently.

At his side, only one person was needed, and the one qualified to be by his side was named Nicole.

Nicole pressed her lips together, smiling faintly at Jose Floyd, a lonely look in her eyes, "Jose Floyd, I’ve always wanted to see what kind of person you’d fall in love with, what kind of woman could hold onto someone as aloof as you. Jose Floyd, I want to see you stumble, want to see who you might lose to, to teach you how to love."

Jose Floyd gazed into Nicole’s eyes, about to speak when her bright gaze suddenly shifted to a nearby charity event.

Nicole took a step forward, her hand still held by Jose Floyd. As she walked, he followed her pace.

The two walked to the front of the charity event, where the host on stage beamed with a microphone.

"Hello everyone, we are looking for some couples to take a series of time-lapse photos, to witness each other’s youth, adulthood, middle age, and old age. To feel the passage of time and learn to cherish each other. In this fast-paced society, external temptations, emotional uncertainties, and feelings faded by time can all become obstacles in a relationship. Through this event, we hope that everyone will cherish each other more, and see if the person beside you still gives you that initial excitement when you’re old. Next, we’d like to ask who would like to participate in this event?"

Jose Floyd wasn’t interested in these things and was about to speak up to leave with Nicole when she suddenly raised her hand.

Jose Floyd pressed his thin lips together, looking at Nicole, "What are you doing?"

Nicole laughed gently, "Jose Floyd, see what I look like when I’m old, see the changes, see if you’ll be scared away."

"You’ve got too much time on your hands." Jose Floyd replied coldly.

When she’s old, he’d be old too. What is there to dislike? Her face full of wrinkles, her fading beauty?

The host selected three couples, finally resting her gaze on Nicole, who had her hand raised, "Miss, we are looking for couples to participate, would your gentleman be willing to join?"

Jose Floyd remained cold and said nothing.

Nicole looked back at Jose Floyd, her voice soft: "Jose Floyd, will you play along with me just this once? Don’t you want to see what you’ll look like in decades? I do want to see what you’re like decades from now."

Will you still be so cold as ice?

Jose Floyd wanted to refuse, but seeing the gentle glow in Nicole’s eyes, he couldn’t say the words.

Nicole knew him well, understanding that this was likely to work, nodded to the host, "He’s willing, can we participate?"

"Of course you can, welcome both of you!"

"Great." Nicole smiled.

Her bright smile dazzled his entire world, blooming in the depths of his eyes. Jose Floyd looked at Nicole and curved his lips.
