Axel, in the midst of his morning routine, had just taken a refreshing sip of water when the doorbell echoed through his apartment. Holding the glass in hand, he made his way to the door, curious about the unexpected interruption.

Upon swinging the door open, he found his neighbor standing there. Her presence at his doorstep was an unexpected surprise that drew a sigh from him. The early morning visit left Axel wondering about the purpose of her visit. She was clutching something in her arms.

Axel proceeded to the kitchen, and she followed him, still tightly holding the plate of cookies. The air in the kitchen felt different, a mix of tension and curiosity lingering between them.

Taking a deep breath she started. Im sorry about your broken phone, for attacking you as well. I didn’t get a chance to apologize…… Jasmine began, her voice filled with sincerity, but just as she spoke, Axel’s dog’s toy, a small mouse–shaped plaything, darted past her.

“What?! Mice!” Jasmine shrieked, leaping in surprise and accidentally sending the plate of cookies flying through the air.
