I Saved Him From The Fire, But He Feared My Scars

Five years ago, to save Julian Vance from a raging fire, my head was struck by a falling wooden beam.

When I finally woke up in the hospital, a hideous scar stretched across my face, and my hearing was completely gone.

With tears in his eyes, Julian took my hand and slowly traced a promise onto my palm, letter by letter: "I will love you forever."

From that day on, Julian became my ears.

On my twenty-fourth birthday, he proposed to me in front of all our friends and family.
