Awful Proposal

Isadora's life had transformed for the better since moving in with Ava a month ago. She felt a deep sense of joy and serenity, thanks to Ava's nurturing presence, which made her feel like a beloved sister. Additionally, her boyfriend's frequent visits brought her immense happiness, making her feel cherished and content.

On a tranquil Thursday, Isadora sat in her room, reflecting on her experiences over the past month while living with Ava. She was engaged in writing down her thoughts when her phone rang, breaking the silence. She glanced at the caller ID and saw Maxwell's name flash on the screen.

"Hello?" she answered, her voice gentle.

"Hi, Isadora. How are you doing?" Maxwell asked, his tone warm and concerned.

"I'm doing well," she replied, her voice filled with a sense of calm.

Maxwell's voice took on a serious tone. "I'm in the garden, and I'd like to discuss something important with you. Can you join me?"
