Lena Alternate Ending

The sunlight hit her eyes and he felt his heart skip a beat. Her eyes were beautiful, there was no doubt about that, but the way the sunlight danced across her face and brought out the flickering specks of gold in her eyes made him feel as though he was the richest man on earth.
