@framework Marleneās ābellā isnāt really a bellāitās an old-fashioned bicycle horn, painted scarlet, perched on her vintage blue Raleigh. You ask, playfully, if you might āring her bell,ā and she, with a wink that could melt custard, replies, āOnly if you polish my saddle first.ā
You wobble through a quaint village of gossiping shopkeepers and espresso-sipping poets, the air thick with floral perfume and possibilities. The horn emits a deliciously undignified *honk*, halfway between laughter and flirtation. It sounds like mischief, sunshine, and Sunday lies-ins.
By chapterās end, you and Marlene are sharing lemonade under the wisteria, both pretending you donāt notice your hands brushing. The bellāher bellāsits silent on the table. Whatever it calls for next, it promises to be loud, funny, and faintly scandalous.
