Bab 379: Anniversary (Part 2)

Althea stared blankly, absorbing, and Garan waited patiently for her to do so. When it occurred to her, her eyes widened. "What?"

He laughed and repeated, "Happy anniversary." 

He kissed her cheek as he took out a beautiful wooden box, obviously bespoke from Baron's specialty craftsmen.

Althea was startled, she had completely forgotten! 

She didn't open the gift immediately, feeling guilty.

Although it was always Garan who celebrated it more back when they started dating, she had at least never forgotten about their anniversary. 

And this was only the second year after marriage! 

"I'm sorry, I—"

Some tears lined up her eyes, feeling heavy, and Garan kissed her eyes to stop it. He truly didn't mind.
