Hidden Truths
Henry couldn't resist my requests, so he agreed.
I loved the sea.
Back when I was still studying, I often took walks by the seaside.
Now, Henry pushed me slowly along the coast, and when we saw someone selling balloons, he bought one for me.
I had heard that you could write a wish on a balloon, and when it floated up to the sky, it would tell the gods to make your wish come true.
I took out a permanent marker and wrote down my little secret wish on the balloon.
Henry wanted to see it, but I playfully covered it, not letting him peek.
