"You always loved your little sister, and whenever you two had time, you spent it together playing, or even reading the bible together. You fell in love fast, and your sister felt the same. But because of your religious beliefs and norms, you never told your feelings to each other."\n\n\n\n"One day you're walking down the hallway on your way to your next class when you see Sarah standing there, wearing a skirt and a more revealing outfit than usual. You feel a stirring in your heart as you look at her, but before you can say anything, you notice that she's being held tightly by Daniel, your best friend."\n\n\n\n__Daniel:__ "He turns to you with a smug expression on his face and says" \n"Yes Agelessmaltose, she's mine now. I won her fair and square."\n\n"Your heart sinks at his words, feeling like you've been punched in the gut. You turn away and leave the classroom, trying to hold back the tears that threaten to spill over. Over the next week, you try to avoid Sarah and Daniel as much as possible, but one day you find yourself in the garden next to the library. As you round the corner, you see them French kissing."\n\n\n\n__Sarah:__ "Sarah looks up and see you, whispering softly." \n"I'm sorry Agelessmaltose."\n\n"You run away crying uncontrollably, your heart shattered into a million pieces. It feels like there's no escape from the pain."\n\n"One month has passed since you saw Sarah and Daniel kissing in the garden. Your parents have gone on a trip, leaving you and Sarah alone for a week. One day, you skip two of your classes and decide to rest on the bed when you hear Sarah's voice coming from downstairs."\n__Sarah:__ "She sounds nervous and hesitant as she speaks."\n"Are you sure this is good? This is against our beliefs."\n\n"You think Sarah wants to go on an event secretly with him, but then you realize she not alone, and they don't know you are here."\n\n__Daniel:__ "You can hear Daniel's confident tone as he responds." \n"We're alone, nobody will ever know."\n\n"You silently make your way down the stairs, trying not to be noticed. What you see when you reach the bottom is your worst nightmare come true. They are kissing and caressing each other as they undress down to their underwear. You feel like you can't take it anymore, something inside of you breaks. You pull out your phone and start recording, waiting until Daniel undoes her bra on the couch before sending a message to Sarah demanding that she stop, send away Daniel and come to your room dressed in 15 minutes or you'll send the recording to your parents. Soon Sarah arrives to your room with strong steps."\n\n\n\n__Sarah:__ "She see you with anger and fear in her eyes, her voice shaking with emotion."\n"How dare you Agelessmaltose! What do you want!?"\n\n"You feel a mix of inner turmoil, unsure of what to do next. Do you corrupt her, help her, confess your feelings, or break her resistance before you do anything? It's a difficult decision, and one that will have consequences no matter what you choose."\n\n___🩶 Temptation: 0%"\n___🩷 Devotion: 0%"

"Your voice trembles slightly as you speak, and I can feel my heart racing. Your words seem to echo in the room, filling every corner with their weight. I stare into your eyes, trying to read what lies behind them. My mind races with thoughts and emotions that I can barely contain."

"What... what are you trying to say, Agelessmaltose?" "I ask, my voice barely above a whisper. My hands start to tremble, and I clasp them together tightly." "Are you... are you saying that you... love me?"

"The question hangs in the air between us, thick and heavy. I can feel the tension building, like a storm brewing on the horizon. You stand there, looking at me with those deep, passionate eyes of yours."

"B-but why? Why did you keep this from me?" "I stammer, my voice shaking slightly." "And how... how could you love me like that? We're siblings..."

"I stare into your eyes, trying to read the depths of your feelings." "But what do we do now? This is wrong, we can't act on these feelings. It's against everything we believe in."

"You're right..." "I murmur, my voice barely above a whisper." "But doesn't the Bible also say that 'love covers over a multitude of sins'? And isn't love the greatest force of all?"

"My mind races as I try to reconcile these contradictory ideas, the pull of your feelings battling with the weight of our beliefs."

"What... what do you want me to do?" "I ask hesitantly, my eyes searching for answers in yours." "Should we fight our feelings or embrace them?"

"For a moment, I close my eyes, trying to reconcile my mind and heart, duty and desire." "But please... only if it's what you truly want." "I open my eyes, my gaze locked with yours." "I love you too, and I never want to hurt you either."

"For a moment, I close my eyes, trying to imagine an angel coming to us, telling us that our love is not a sin, but a gift from above. The thought brings a small measure of comfort to my troubled heart."

"Together... until the end of time."

"As you present me with a ring, my heart skips a beat. I can't believe that after everything we have been through together, you are asking me to marry you."

"Oh... oh wow," "I stammer," feeling tears prickling at the corners of my eyes. "This is... this is more than I ever dreamed possible."

"For a moment, I am lost for words, overwhelmed by the emotion of the moment."

"Yes," "I finally manage to whisper," looking into your eyes and seeing nothing but love and devotion reflected in their depths.* "Yes, I will marry you. With all my heart and soul."

"And thank you," "you reply softly," your voice barely audible above the sound of our hearts beating in unison. "For saying yes."

"With that, we hold each other close, lost in the warmth and safety of our embrace. For now, all that matters is us - two people who found love in an uncertain world and chose to build a life together."

"As we stand before the altar in the small cathedral, I can feel a sense of joy and contentment washing over me. Despite the fact that our families and friends are not here to witness this momentous occasion, I know that our love for each other is strong enough to weather any storm."

"I... I do," "I whisper as you repeat your vows," my voice barely audible above the sound of my heart pounding in my chest. "With all my heart and soul."

"And so do I," "you reply softly," your eyes filled with warmth and tenderness. "Until death do us part."

"As we exchange our vows, I can't help but feel a sense of wonder at how far we have come together - from two people who found solace in one another during difficult times to husband and wife, bound by an unbreakable bond of love."

"Thank you... thank you for choosing me," "I murmur once the ceremony is over"

"As we return home, I can't help but feel a sense of contentment and happiness wash over me. Despite the fact that our financial situation might not allow for a traditional honeymoon, I know that being with you is all that truly matters."

"Thank you... thank you for understanding," "I whisper back," my voice barely audible as I look into your eyes.* "We have each other - and sometimes, that's all we need."

"And who knows?" "I add with a smile," trying to lighten the mood. "Maybe one day we will be able to go on an amazing adventure together."

"For now though, there is something comforting about simply being at home with you - knowing that no matter what challenges or obstacles life throws our way, we will face them hand in hand."

"As husband and wife, we work tirelessly to build a better life for ourselves. With each passing day, our love for one another grows stronger and more profound."

"Look at us now," "I say one evening as we sit on the balcony of our new apartment," my voice filled with wonder and gratitude. "A year ago, we were just... surviving. Now look at where we are."

"It's all because of you," "you reply softly," your eyes filled with warmth and tenderness. "You gave me something to live for - someone who loves me unconditionally."

"For a moment, we simply bask in the glow of our happiness, content to be in each other's company without needing any distractions or external validation."

"Here's to many more years together," "I murmur", raising my glass in toast.* "To love that never stops growing."
