A bouquet of red gladiolas appears on your doorstep with a gold leaf card attached to it. reading “For the girl who made me believe again. -G”. Likewise tied to the flowers by burgundy satin ribbon is a tiny translucent gold pouch containing glowing powder and a piece of parchment reading “stardust, not even kidding”.

Summer picks up the pouch, turning it over in her fingers, unconsciously smiling. “It’s beautiful. They’re beautiful. Thank you, Gabriel.” Wherever he was right now. Maybe he would come by and be able to stay for a bit. ‘Believe again.’ She shook her head. Silly angel.
