A Glimmer of Doubt
As the days turned into weeks, Lexi and Julian's connection grew stronger. They spent more time together, exploring the town and working on the garden.
One evening, as they sat on the garden bench, Julian turned to Lexi with a serious expression. "I've been thinking, Lexi. My life is complicated, with my mother's health and my career. I don't want to burden you with all that."
Lexi's heart skipped a beat. Was Julian pulling away? "You're not burdening me, Julian. I care about you and your mother. I want to support you."

Lexi's doubts faded, replaced by a sense of hope. Maybe, just maybe, they could make this work.
