The anxiety I felt when we strolled in to the beautiful building almost could suffocate me, I was so anxious that I held Gale’s hand tight. I was finally going to see the kind of apartment we would be living in together, the fact that it came from Gale’s heart made it more precious and dear to my heart, we used the elevator and reached the fifteenth floor immediately, We walked until were standing in front of the penthouse’s door
