Emma sat nervously at the dining table, her hands fidgeting with the edge of her napkin. Her family was gathered for dinner, and she knew she had to share her decision with them. She took a deep breath and looked at her mother and older sister, who were all smiling warmly at her.“I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately,” Emma began, her voice quivering slightly. “And I’ve come to a decision. I want to try to get Charles’ attention again and see if there’s a chance for us to be together.”Her mother exchanged a knowing glance with her sister and then turned back to Emma. “Oh, dear, that’s wonderful!

How did they do that?”Charles leaned in slightly, his voice lowering. “They planned the surprise party for us, hoping to catch us off guard and create misunderstandings between us.
