The aroma of freshly brewed coffee, a scent that always sparked a sense of comfort, now felt charged with something else. Liam practically bounced on the balls of his feet as he approached the kitchen. He heard a murmur, a melodic flow he hadn't noticed before, coming from inside. Peeking around the corner, he saw Sarah, his partner, meticulously chopping vegetables, reciting something in fluent Spanish. His heart swelled. He grinned, feeling a strange lightness in his chest. “¡Buenos días, mi amor!” he called out. Sarah jumped, then her face broke into a delighted smile.
