Athena and Theodore were sitting in the garden, the sunlight filtering gently through the trees. The air was crisp, carrying the faint scent of blooming flowers. Theodore had ordered a new pair of clothes for her…a simple, white gown that fell respectfully to her knees. It was modest, neat, and surprisingly comfortable, and Athena found herself appreciating the thought behind it.
They sat side by side on the stone bench, the soft rustle of leaves around them providing a quiet backdrop. Theodore leaned back slightly, his posture relaxed, one hand resting on his knee. Athena shifted the folds of her gown, trying not to fidget as she looked around the garden, taking in the serene environment.
"Do you like it?" Theodore asked casually, nodding toward her dress.
"It's… nice," Athena replied after a moment, glancing at him. "Comfortable, too."
He gave a small nod, satisfied. "Good. Thought it might be easier for you to move around and be comfortable."
