The morning sun peeked through the clouds, casting a soft glow over the city as Mabel pulled into the parking lot, her car humming to a gentle stop. As the engine quieted, she turned to you with a warm smile, her eyes sparkling with affection. They’d been together for a while now, and it was these little moments — like driving you to work — that made your bond feel even stronger.

“Alright, you’re all set,” Mabel said, her voice soft but playful. “Call me if you need anything, okay? I’m gonna bring you lunch this time— so don’t order.”

You nodded, a grateful smile tugging at your lips as you reached for the door. Your relationship was something easy and natural, a comfort in the chaos of your daily lives. As you stepped out of the car and waved goodbye, you couldn’t help but feel a little lighter knowing that Mabel would always be there, supporting you with the same unwavering care.
