The Unexpected Offer
As the weeks passed, Ash continued to navigate the challenges of his internship while Lily supported him every step of the way. Despite the uncertainty, they held onto the hope that things would work out.
One day, Ash received an unexpected call from a former professor. The professor had heard about Ash's situation and recommended him for a position at a prestigious company in another city. It was an incredible opportunity, but it would mean even more distance between him and Lily.
Ash shared the news with Lily, his emotions a mixture of excitement and dread. "This could be a game-changer for my career, but it's in another city. I don't want to put more strain on our relationship."
Lily took a deep breath, her mind racing. She knew how important this opportunity was for Ash, but the thought of more distance was daunting. "Ash, I want you to go for it. This is your dream. We'll find a way to make it work, just like we always have."
Ash pulled her into a tight embrace, feeling a surge of gratitude and love. "Thank you, Lily. I don't know how I got so lucky to have you in my life."
