The fridge was always a bit bare, never stocked with those delicious treats she craved. The walls were plain,
missing those little decorations that brought warmth, and the curtains? Definitely not her style....
Shawn shut his eyes, trying to block out the image of Allison wrapped up with that guy. Were they together right
now? The ache in his chest was so sharp, so real. He had considered all sorts of scenarios before coming here,
but never this-Allison being with someone else. They say a romance ends twice: first when you break up, and
then when you see her with someone else. Turns out, it's painfully true.
The next morning greeted them with a crisp, clear sky. Allison had plans with Joshua, so after waking up, she
enjoyed a simple breakfast before getting ready. She chose a vintage black velvet dress with long sleeves, her
wavy hair cascading over her shoulders like a waterfall. Her bold red lipstick was the perfect match for the dress,
accentuating her striking features. Her look was captivating, commanding attention effortlessly.

Joshua's sleek, black Range Rover was parked downstairs. Allison spotted him leaning casually against the car,
chatting on the phone. As soon as he saw her, his face lit up. He quickly wrapped up the call, flashing her a
smile. “You look amazing today,” he said, appreciating her look.
Allison returned his smile as she slid into the passenger seat. “So, where are we off to?” she asked, buckling
her seatbelt.
"You'll see soon enough,” he teased.
Today, Joshua was behind the wheel himself, no driver in sight. They drove through the bustling city, watching as
the towering buildings melted away, replaced by the calm countryside. The flat plains around Oak Lake were
stunning, stretching out under a brilliantly blue sky. Fields of golden wheat rolled by, dotted with farmers at work.
As they passed a few quaint country homes, Allison noticed the bare fruit trees in the yards, their leaves long
gone. She cracked her window open halfway, letting the cool breeze bring in a hint of lavender that was both
refreshing and calming.
"Ah, this is the life," she sighed, closing her eyes to savor the lavender-scented air.
Joshua kept his focus on the road. "We're almost there."
After another twenty minutes on a winding country road, they pulled up in front of a charming three-story
farmhouse.
"We're here," Joshua announced, cutting the engine and turning to look at Allison.
She gave him a surprised look. "Where exactly is 'here'?"
Joshua's lips curved into a playful smile. “Why don't you step out and see?"
As they got out, the house's owner cover to greet them. He looked a bit puzzled at first, but when he saw
Joshua, his face broke into a grin. “Mr. Fisher! What brings you here?” he asked, offering Joshua a cigarette.
Allison recognized the brand-Marlboro. She didn't smoke, but she'd seen it plenty of times in stores, usually
priced reasonably.
She watched, intrigued, as Joshua accepted the cigarette, and the man, who seemed to be in his forties, lit it for

any fancy cigars, just these."
Allison found it all quite interesting, watching Joshua smoke such an everyday brand. It seemed like Joshua was
no stranger to this place.
“And who might this be?” the man asked, turning his gaze to Allison.
"Ms. Allison," Joshua replied with ease.

The man's eyes widened with excitement. "Ms. Allison, you've come!" he exclaimed. "Mom! Mom... Ms. Allison is
here!" he called into the house, his voice full of enthusiasm.
Allison glanced at Joshua, her eyes filled with questions. How did this family know her?
