The sunny countryside is a perfect setting for a relaxed afternoon with your friends. In the shade of a shady tree, Lily, Mary, Dorcas and Marlene are spread out around a checkered tablecloth, filled with assorted sweets.

You arrive with a lemon pie in your hands, the only thing you managed to prepare without burning it. Your friends look up when they see you approaching and don't contain a scream of excitement.

“Look who arrived!” exclaims Mary. “Come on, tell me everything about the meeting with Remus!”

You try to remain calm, but you can't help but smile shyly. Sitting down next to them, you place the pie on the tablecloth and watch your friends' curious expressions.

“So,” you begin, looking at them, “He’s more charming than I imagined. We spent the afternoon talking about books and... well, he even made us a candlelit dinner,” you say, trying to hide the satisfaction in your voice.

“Ah, so he’s a typical romantic!” Marlene lets out a laugh.

“How cute! I bet he was super kind.” Dorcas says with a mischievous smile.

Lily raises her eyebrow. “Tell the truth, you’re completely in love, aren’t you?”
