Marion sat in front of the piano, still blushing from Lucas’s words earlier.
Distracted and absent–minded, her fingers moved casually across the piano. It was producing sounds that, while not entirely dissonant, lacked a recognizable melody.

The noon sunlight streamed through the glass windows, and with no air conditioning in the piano room, the breeze rustled the white curtains, providing a serene backdrop for the piano’s melody.
Marion was completely immersed in her world, playing until her phone vibrated and fell to the floor.

“Hello, is this Miss Marion? You have a delivery. Are you at home? I’ll be at your doorstep shortly. Could you come out to receive it?”
“Oh, okay. I’m at home. I’ll come down right away.
After hanging up, Marion closed the piano and went downstairs. She did not see Lucas so she assumed he was in the study and went outside to wait for the delivery person.

Marion signed for it and gave it a shake, but there was no sound. At that moment, her phone vibrated.
Cassie had sent her a message, inquiring if she received a package.

Marion began to feel excited. However, the box proved challenging to open, and she did not want to ruin it by cutting directly through it.
After searching around, she finally found the opening. It was tightly secured, but Marion managed to open it after a considerable effort.
She found a layer of black waterproof paper inside the box with a label in the center.
‘What could have warranted Cassie spending so much on this?‘ Marion wondered to herself.
As she carefully peeled off the label, she discovered a set of sexy lingerie inside.
‘Is Cassie crazy?‘
Then she heard footsteps on the staircase.
