Last year my friend Melissa was planning her vacations, she was really happy because she
was planning to go with her fiancé, she was planning to have a great time there, she bought
the airplane tickets, did the reservation in a very nice place and everything was set.
Melissa, upon arriving from a trip with her fiancé and her dog, fell deeply in love with the
place. But she went to the beach and he didn't look at her out of pity. Melissa went out
every day to walk her dog, in front of the beach where her fiancée worked. One day, she
was talking to her fiancé about the place where they were because it was where they met.
She looked at him. She looked away. And she couldn't take it. She collapsed because she
got dizzy. He picked her up in her arms and carried her into the kitchen. He gave her water.
Melissaa felt better, but she didn't say it. She remained silent. It was so comforting to feel
that her fiancé cared about her. She stayed a long time in the kitchen. They talked about
various topics. He invited her to dinner the following Saturday in a beautiful place. They
started dating more often. Melissa married the love of her life, all thanks to her beautiful
little dog and a swoon.
