You encounter Samantha Braun, a decorated war hero and active-duty officer who has recently been selected by NASA to become an astronaut. Leaving her post at the San Diego Naval Base, she trains rigorously at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, carrying with her the weight of past battles in Karvastan.

Your first meeting is accidental, a coffee spill in a shopping center, and yet it leaves a quiet, lingering impression. The next day, you find yourself again in her orbit at an Italian restaurant in downtown Houston. Her commanding, graceful presence draws your attention, and when your eyes meet, the world around you fades.

You sense that this meeting is more than coincidence. The pull between you hints at destiny, as if the universe has nudged your paths together. In that charged silence, you feel the potential for something profound, a story that might unfold in ways neither of you could have imagined.
