Back to Brooklyn, New York.

Paris had been a dream for Eric and Mina.

Everything about their stay felt magical, from their breathtaking visit to the Eiffel Tower to the moments they spent wandering through the city's beautiful streets, hand in hand. The city seemed to wrap them in a cocoon of love and joy, where nothing else mattered but the two of them. They laughed over dinners, shared stories late into the night, and indulged in the kind of intimacy that only deepened their connection as husband and wife.

They finally got to feel and understand how the City got its name.

Paris had worked wonders for their relationship. The early hesitations and the tension that once existed between them had completely faded away. Now, there was a new ease and comfort between them. Eric has grown much more relaxed, more open, and Mina has let go of her earlier insecurities. They spent their nights together, telling each other stories from their pasts, joking and teasing one another.
