“He has a new girlfriend again? This one Looks innocent!”
“He always has excellent taste.”
“Why do I feel Like I’ve seen her before?”
The murmur of conversation washed over the room until Sanford, seeking to quell the chatter, raised ahand in a commanding gesture.
“Enough. What you need to understand is that Maggie is now my partner.”
His succinct clarification sparked a collective epiphany, a mutual understanding spreading across thefaces of the assembled crowd.

“Isn’t Maggie the woman who resides beneath Sanford?” one impeccably dressed woman queried, herbrow furrowed in thought.
A second woman chimed in, her memory sparked. “Yes, she was quite the spectacle when Sanfordmoved in.”
The crowd murmured in agreement, their surprised glances shared but unspoken.
No one expected Sanford to choose such an unassuming woman to be by his side.

Maggie nodded and extended the bag to Sanford. “Happy birthday, Sanford.”
Sanford accepted the gift, a playful smile gracing his lips. “A gift, just for me? You’re too kind.”
Blushing, Maggie mumbled, “It’s nothing extravagant. I hope you won’t find it disappointing.”
“Nonsense,” Sanford replied, his voice tinged with warmth. He delved into the bag, extracting a pair ofcuff links. “Oh, these are cuff links! They are exquisite!”
