Luciana smiled at Helen's enthusiasm but felt a pang of uncertainty. She hadn't planned on going out tonight, especially with all the work she had to do for her new projects. But the thought of socializing and seeing her friends was tempting.
"Are you okay?" Oscar asked, noticing her sudden change in expression.
"Yeah, just got a message from Helen about a party tonight," Luciana replied, hesitating. "I don't know if I should go."
"Why not?" he encouraged, leaning against the counter. "It could be a great way to unwind after all the work you've been doing. Plus, you get to show off how adorable we are as a couple," he added with a cheeky grin.
Luciana laughed. "That is a valid point. I guess I was just thinking about all the work I have."
"Come on, you deserve a break. You can always work on your projects tomorrow," he insisted. "What do you say we make an appearance? I'd love to meet your friends."
