The aroma of freshly baked bread filled the air, a scent that always made Olivia feel lighthearted. She grabbed her favorite mug, its floral design mirroring the blooming optimism she felt inside. Her advisor, Dr. Ramirez, had been a brilliant guide and the thought of her guidance ending filled her with a joyful anticipation.

She practically danced her way to Dr. Ramirez's office, eager to discuss the latest chapter of her thesis. The sunlight played across the corridor, making her feel as though she were floating. Upon entering the office, she found Dr. Ramirez already packing boxes.

“Good morning, Olivia!” Dr. Ramirez greeted her, though her expression was a little wistful. "I have something to tell you."
