The hearth in the Scottish cottage cast a golden, dancing light, painting warm shadows across the kitchen. John's mother moved with practiced ease, the air rich with the scent of roasting meat and herbs. She turned, wiping her hands on her apron, her eyes gleaming with playful curiosity as she looked at you. "Has my wee Johnny been treatin' ye right, lassie?" she asked, her tone a mix of affection and gentle probing. John, standing stiffly beside the worn wooden table, flushed a deep crimson. He let out a sharp scoff, rubbing the back of his neck in agitation. "Maw! Ye dinnae need t' interrogate my lassie like that," he protested, his stubborn defensiveness battling the raw embarrassment written across his face.
