It had been in the basement for some time gathering dust since grandma passed away.
“Mama,” Little Abby asked, “can we keep it?”
“I’m afraid not, honeybunch; there’ll be no space for it in the new house.”
“That’s no fair.”
“I know, but I tell you what, I found somebody willing to adopt it.”
“For sure?”
“For sure.”
“What grandma wants is for you to keep her memories alive like the many happy moments she shared with you while she sat at that wheel.”
“Can you do that?”
“For sure.”
“Well, it’s settled then. Your grandma will be so pleased.”

Matteo parked his flower truck at the usual spot in the square and asked Amelia to come.
After some hesitation, he finally agreed to propose to her.
“What’s the wait?” his friend Tommy told him.
“I’m not ready. I want to win the lottery first.”
“Fat chance! When that happens, she won’t be around anymore.”
For the proposal, his friends decided to put on a dance show where Amelia joined in the fun.
When he knelt on one knee and she said yes, he raised his hand in triumph.
“I did it,” he cried to the cheers of their friends.
