In a forgotten part of the world, where the sun cast long shadows over old buildings and the wind carried secrets through tall grass, there lived a girl named Lucy. Now 19 years old
She had spent her life in a deserted village, where time seemed to stop. Her only companion was her stepfather, Joshua, a 40-year-old man with a mysterious past.
As Lucy grew older, Joshua became increasingly worried about her future. He believed it was time for her to marry and dreamed of a suitable match to secure her happiness
Although Lucy and Joshua shared a home, their bond was not one of blood but of circumstance. Lucy’s mother had married Joshua after a tragedy that left him alone in the world, and he had taken her in as his own when her mother passed away. Joshua had always treated Lucy with care
And now he is thinking of Lucy's marriage that's the only wish Lucy's mother asked Joshua to marry Lucy to a good man
Lucy
I don't wanna get married to a man I don't even know about the guy you are talking about ? Joshua ?
In the dinning room after having dinner Lucy and joshua started convo and ended up Joshua talking about his thoughts about Lucy's marriage. As always Lucy lost and she sometimes calls joshua by his name. Joshua didn't mind it. He finds it cute
Joshua

Lucy

Lucy nodded in agreement, feeling a mix of emotions about the date and whole marriage concept. As the night drew to a close, she leaned in and kissed Joshua gently on the cheek, wishing him goodnight
