In a rush, he suggested, “Then, I’ll disclose everything to my mother, and we can return to the way things were!

Emmeline cautioned, “I want to be clear–I don’t have feelings for you. This was my mother’s wishful thinking from the start, so our prospects might not align with your expectations. For now, I just want to spare my mother the heartbreak.”

Albus face grew pallid, and he hung his head as he admitted, “I understand.”

“Then, why do you persist?” she questioned. “You shouldn’t have come to my house in the first place!”

With eagerness, he looked up and declared. ‘I have feelings for you, Emma. I’ve felt this way since the first moment I saw you. Please, allow me to cherish you for the rest of my life!”

Turning away to avoid his gaze, she softly expressed, I only wish to console my mother. We don’t have a future together.”

“What do you mean?” he asked with anxiety, ‘Is this a temporary plan?”

Emmeline briefly hesitated, reaffirming that the plan was indeed temporary. She clung to the hope that her mother would eventually overcome her depression, climinating the need for further insistence on this matter and allowing it to fade into oblivion.
