Chapter 1: Morning Routine At the Apartment.
On a bright sky-blue day in New York City, the lively residents were bustling about, heading to work and school. Inside an apartment situated in a secluded, secure, tree-lined, and amicable neighborhood, Lisa Calloway rested in the luxurious master bed of the bedroom. As the morning sunlight filtered through the bedroom window, it gently illuminated her face, stirring her from slumber. Lisa let out a quiet groan, gradually opening her drowsy eyes, followed by a deep yawn and a satisfying stretch. With a sense of curiosity, she propped herself up in bed, only to realize that her husband, Graham Calloway, was nowhere to be seen.
Married for more than a year, Lisa, a renowned actress at the Sydney Opera House in Australia, and Graham, the Head Electrician managing the team responsible for illuminating every play, musical, and opera, first crossed paths when Lisa was in the spotlight. They met and fell in love when Lisa was cast as the Great Count's daughter. She portrayed the long-lost daughter of the Great Count and embarked on an enchanting love story with a handsome, charming lord. However, their happiness was short-lived when she discovered that she was betrothed to a wealthy Duke. Little did she know that he was notorious for mistreating his wives. The story was filled with Adventure, Passionate Love, Enchanting Romance, Intriguing Mystery, and Exciting Intrigue.
About a year later, they strolled along the beach just a stone's throw from the majestic Sydney Harbor. Hand in hand, they walked with the ocean waves dancing playfully beside them, ebbing and flowing in perfect harmony. As Graham and Lisa came to a halt, Graham positioned himself in front of her, gazing at her lovingly. In return, she met his gaze with affection in her eyes. Graham's fingers gently intertwined with hers, creating an intimate connection. Meanwhile, the sun was poised on the brink of setting over the vast ocean, painting the sky in a kaleidoscope of colors. As Graham knelt down, he held Lisa's hand firmly, gazing into her eyes with love and anticipation. Delving his hand into his jacket pocket, he retrieved a square-shaped box. Opening it, he revealed a stunning diamond ring adorning a gold band. As Graham gazed at her with adoration, he mustered the courage to propose. With a heartwarming 'Will you marry me?', Lisa enchantedly said yes. Slipping the ring onto her middle finger, they wrapped each other in a tender embrace, the sun elegantly setting over the ocean beside them.
A year later, their love blossomed into marriage. They celebrated their honeymoon and wedding night amidst the vibrant beauty of Jamaica. Another year passed before they immigrated to the bustling streets of New York City. They now reside in a cozy apartment located in a serene, tree-lined, secure neighborhood in Queens.
After another year passed, Lisa welcomed their first-born son into the world, and they named him Gregory Nathan Calloway. A year passed, and Greg beamed with joy as he anticipated welcoming a new member to the family. Lisa delivered their second daughter, whom they named Lillian Amber Calloway. However, they affectionately referred to her as Lilly.
Now Greg was 5-years-old and Lilly was 3-years-old a toddler, Lisa was still wondering what could've happened to Graham, until she heard footsteps approaching, She was startled by the sound of something clinking on a tray, drawing her attention to the master bedroom door. There, she beheld her husband Graham, elegantly making his way into the room with a breakfast tray. The tray was adorned with a delectable spread - fried eggs, crispy hash browns, fresh fruit, and a steaming cup of hot coffee.
