Ms. Black monitored the maids as they arranged the dining table to perfection, her keen eye ensuring that every detail was in place. After she was satisfied with the preparations, she ascended the stairs to her bedroom, where she would change before Liana and her mother arrived.

As Ms. Black discussed the final preparations with her husband, Tony entered the room with a smile.

“Mom, is everything ready? I can’t wait to see Liana,” he said excitedly.

Ms. Black playfully teased her son. “Ohh, darling! You are madly in love, aren’t you? Can’t stop thinking about your Liana,” she said with a warm smile.

As Tony navigated the streets, Liana turned to him, her eyes serious. “Tony,” she began, her voice delicate yet determined, “Can you please not drop me in front of the hotel?” Tony’s brow furrowed slightly as he looked over at her. “Why is that?
