The scent of honeysuckle filled the air, and a light breeze made Amelia want to dance. The upcoming defense of her thesis was on her mind, but rather than nerves, she felt an overwhelming sense of excitement and gratitude to Professor Anya. She was at the final stages of her research, and it had been a long journey, full of lessons and discoveries.

She skipped towards her advisor's office. When she opened the door, she found Dr. Anya already surrounded by moving boxes.

"Amelia, come in. Sit," she said, her usual energy missing. "We need to talk."
