The morning sun filtered through the curtains, gently awakening Pia from her slumber. As she stirred, thoughts of Teo lingered in her mind, like fragments of a dream that refused to fade. She couldn't shake the warmth of their late-night conversation, nor the genuine concern in his voice.
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, her phone rang, startling her. It was Teo. A smile tugged at the corners of her lips as she answered the call, her heart fluttering with anticipation.
"Hey, Pia," Teo's voice greeted her warmly. "I hope I didn't wake you up."
Pia chuckled softly. "No, not at all. I was just awake."
For the next hour, they talked sweetly, sharing stories and laughter as if they had known each other for years. Time seemed to slip away effortlessly in their conversation, leaving Pia feeling lighter and happier than she had in a long time.
Eventually, they bid each other farewell, promising to talk again soon. As Pia ended the call, she couldn't help but feel a sense of longing. She had grown accustomed to their conversations, finding solace in Teo's company.
Lost in her thoughts, Pia noticed a notification on her phone—a new email. Curious, she opened it and was surprised to find that she had been invited to speak at a webinar in Spain. It was an unexpected opportunity, one that both excited and intrigued her.
As she read through the details, Pia couldn't shake the feeling that destiny was at play once again. Spain, the home country of Teo, suddenly felt like more than just a location for a webinar—it felt like a chance for their paths to cross once more.
With a flutter of excitement in her heart, Pia accepted the invitation. Little did she know, this decision would set into motion a series of events that would bring her closer to Teo in ways she had never imagined.
