The imagery of stars emphasizes the brilliance and fleeting nature of these moments, highlighting their significance within the confines of their everyday lives.
As Gabriel reflects on these memories, he realizes that they represent more than just past experiences; they encapsulate the deep emotional connections and struggles that define their union. This realization brings a profound awareness of love, loss, and the complexity of human relationships, reminding him that even the most mundane moments can shine brightly in our minds.
