Curiosity might have killed the cat, but it revives bedroom chemistry. Play in the realms of what-ifs and why-nots, and before long, you'll find yourself saying, “Why not us, right now?” But remember, it’s all about comfort and consent.
A dash of curiosity: because twinkle never goes out of style.
Have fun exploring together and allowing vulnerability to form connections as vibrant as a neon 'Open' sign. It enriches both the mind and heart in the journey of rediscovering each other.
