So I dashed to her room, opened the door, and what did I see?
My daughter and her boyfriend were sitting on the floor, surrounded by notebooks, colored pens, and open textbooks. They looked up at me in complete shock. Apparently, they were working on a school project together. They had created a study schedule, divided the subjects, and were helping each other prepare for upcoming exams.
The boy immediately stood up and greeted me politely, just as he always did. My daughter looked embarrassed, not because she was doing something wrong, but because I had entered without knocking.
