Word count: ~1500
Over the next few days, Emma keeps noticing Luke from a distance—walking through the woods, sitting by the lake, or deep in thought at the local café. Her curiosity about him grows, but she remains hesitant to approach. Meanwhile, Luke seems to be struggling with something personal. When Emma finally speaks to him at the café, he seems distant and aloof, a stark contrast to the man she’d imagined. But there's a sadness in his eyes that pulls her in, leaving her with more questions than answers.
