He's on a flight to Tokyo when he finds a deck of cards in his pocket, which is funny because he's certain he didn't slip them into his jacket. When he pulls them out he squints to see the writing on the box. Will, you haven't even left for the trip yet but I miss you already. I love you so much, and I may have stolen this from Tumblr to tell you some of the reasons why. XO Lizzie.
When he opens the box, he can see that she's written a reason on each of the cards.
