Sabrina's POV

Hazel lifted her feet slightly, crossing her ankles while gazing out the car window. From the glass, the wet trees were still dripping the remnants of rain, and the road reflected the light like a sheet of glass. She turned to glance at me briefly, then gave a faint smile.

“Funny, isn’t it,” she murmured, her voice nearly drowned out by the sound of the radio. “Back then, I thought having a boutique was just a dream. Something I wrote in a school notebook, then closed it, convinced it would never happen.”

I gave her a quick side glance before returning my eyes to the road. “And now?”

Hazel looked outside again, her gaze following the rows of shops we passed. “Now it feels strange. Still like a dream, but I can actually see its shape. There are racks, chairs, a space I can fill with my own work. It’s so strange, Sabrina. Like I’m not ready, but at the same time, I can’t wait.”

A small smile tugged at my lips. “That mean

    Sabrina's POV Nicholas leaned back, covering his face with one hand. That small movement revealed the gravity of the situation. He didn't immediately reprimand or try to calm Charlie, perhaps because he himself was trying to come to terms with what had just happened. His usually strong shoulders now slumped slightly, like someone losing his footing. I sat frozen, staring alternately between Hazel and the little boy, who was now gripping his colored pencils too tightly. The air in the living room was thick, as if something was pressing in from all directions. The clock ticked slowly, but each ticking of its hands emphasized how painful the seconds were.Charlie finally put down his colored pencils, crossed his arms over his chest, and leaned back against the pillow. His eyes glistened, filled with unshed tears. He blinked repeatedly, as if he didn't want to appear weak. But his breathing was heavy, ragged, and I knew he was about to burst into tears.

    Sabrina's POV The living room felt different that afternoon. Usually, Charlie's laughter or Hazel's light chatter filled the air, but this time a long silence hung. Hazel sat on the edge of the sofa, her back straight but her fingers clenched, as if holding something heavy.I looked at her, trying to read her face, but her gaze was mostly focused on the floor. Nicholas sat beside me, his eyebrows slightly knitted together; it was clear from the way he looked at Hazel that he, too, sensed something was wrong."Hazel?" I finally broke the silence. "Why do you seem so serious?"Hazel took a deep breath. Her voice was low, almost hesitant. "I have something to tell you. Don't be surprised."I swallowed. It felt like my heart was pounding in my chest. "Just talk," I whispered, trying to sound calm.Hazel looked up, her eyes darting from Nicholas to me. "I'm going back to my apartment."The words were like a large stone dropped on

    Sabrina's POV I noticed the row of trees along the roadside, their leaves still dripping with rain, reflecting the light of the car's headlights. In my head, everything that happened today replayed: the furniture truck arriving, the shelves being installed, Hazel's unstoppable smile, and the phone call from the factory that nearly made her jump for joy. It was all like pieces of a puzzle finally fitting together.Hazel opened her eyes again and stared out the window. "It's so beautiful, isn't it, Sabrina? The sky this afternoon." Her voice was soft, almost drowned out by the sound of the car engine.I followed her gaze and smiled. "Yes. It's like a reward for a long day."Nicholas added briefly, still staring straight ahead. "You've all worked hard today. This afternoon deserves to be beautiful."Hazel just smiled, then fell silent again. Charlie, who was listening, exclaimed cheerfully. "It'll be even more beautiful tomorrow, right? Because

    Sabrina's POV Hazel then looked around and said quietly, “I want everyone who enters this boutique to feel this kind of atmosphere. Warm, full of laughter, like family.”I nodded. “That’s possible, Hazel. Because this boutique already has a soul. Your soul, and all of ours.”Nicholas added briefly but meaningfully, “If there’s love behind it, people can definitely feel it.”Charlie immediately jumped in. “Yeah, like I can taste it when Mom bakes cakes with love! They taste so much better.”Hazel chuckled, then pinched his cheek gently. “You guys, you always manage to make Mom laugh.”I looked at the three of them, my heart warming. “Then, starting today, let’s celebrate every little step. Because every step counts.”Hazel nodded, her eyes sparkling. “Agreed. From now on, this boutique isn’t just a place to sell clothes. It’s a second home for all of us.”Charlie shouted happily. “Home boutique!”Nicholas sm

    Sabrina's POV Hazel laughed again, this time with more relief. “Deal. I promise. But you also have to promise never to leave me halfway.”I looked at her deeply, then nodded firmly. “That’s the easiest promise for me to keep.”Hazel was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath. “Sabrina, I think today isn’t just the first day my boutique opened. It’s also the first day I truly believed I could do it.”I took her hand, holding it tightly. “I’ll always be there to remind you that that belief must never be lost.”Hazel smiled, this time a smile full of light despite her tired face. “Thank you, Sab.”I smiled back, stroking her hand gently. "You're welcome, boutique owner."A sudden knock on the door made us both look at each other. I frowned; we had indeed locked the door, and the closed sign was already hanging. But outside, I saw two very familiar figures.Hazel, who had been sitting, immediately rose, her face slightly confused. I knew w

    Sabrina's POV The boutique had returned to its former tranquility. The door was closed, the lights dimmed slightly. Hazel was still sitting in the chair near the cashier, gently massaging her temples. I could see the fatigue in her eyes, but also a hard-to-conceal satisfaction.I stood by the window, looking out. The afternoon sun had already set lower, golden light filtering through the glass and hitting the wooden shelves we had lovingly arranged over the past few days. A warm, indescribable feeling filled my chest, a mix of pride, gratitude, and relief.The boutique was quiet again, except for the faint ticking of the clock on the wall, which seemed to tick at a slower pace than usual. The afternoon air seeped in through the vents, carrying the faint scent of road dust mixed with the scent of new wood that still lingered in every corner of the room.I took a deep breath and let it out slowly. Everything felt different now. The room, which had once
