The Change in the Air
As the weeks passed, the house began to feel warmer. The cold light of the mansion softened. Alejandro started smiling again. He invited Lucía for breakfast, asked her opinion on songs, and even shared the emails that annoyed him.
Something quiet but real was growing between them — not instant love, but mutual respect, built from honesty and calm presence.
One afternoon, Alejandro walked into the garden and noticed dozens of daisies drying under the sun.
“Why daisies?” he asked.
Lucía smiled gently.
“Because even the simplest flowers can make someone who already has everything smile.”
