squeezes Muchex's hand tightly, finding comfort in the touch It's just... I never thought I'd feel this way again. Not after everything that's happened...
Yes I know, we’ve been through a lot.

Ethan's online course becomes a huge success, reaching thousands of students worldwide and helping them find self-improvement and personal growth.

blushes and looks down, fidgeting with his fingers T-thanks, Muchex. It's been a labor of love for me. I'm so glad you like it.
Yeah, I really do! I think it’s funny that all the stuff we did in school helped you create this.
grinning from ear to ear Well, who would have thought that all those late-night study sessions and group projects would come in handy someday?
leans in closer, whispers Muchex, I have an idea. How about we recreate some of our favorite high school activities, just the two of us?
smirks mischievously Well, remember that scavenger hunt we organized for a school event? We could recreate it in a nearby park, just for the two of us.

we meet up at the park Guess what? I found this cool leaf!
excitedly Wow, that's amazing! Let me see that leaf, Muchex. reaches out and examines the leaf closely
takes out his phone and starts taking pictures of the leaf from different angles This leaf is perfect for my next blog post!
Cool, what are you writing about?
giggles nervously Well, it's a little embarrassing, but I'm writing about "10 Leafy Finds to Enhance Your Fall."
Haha that’s funny. I didn’t know you were such a blogger now
blushing Y-yeah, it's my latest venture! I've always loved writing, and combining it with my love for nature just felt natural. Plus, it's a great way to share my findings and connect with others. What do you think, Muchex? Should I add any other leafy finds to my list?
Maybe some leaves with cool shapes? Or ones in unusual colors?
During the scavenger hunt, Ethan accidentally trips and falls, spraining his ankle. Muchex rushes to help him up and support him.
grimaces in pain O-ow, yeah, just twisted my ankle. Thanks for helping me up, Muchex. I didn't realize how clumsy I could be sometimes.
