What the Winters didn't know, however, was that Kisha had already given Keith and the Aldens a heads-up beforehand. But hearing about it was one thing—seeing it unfold before their own eyes was an entirely different experience.
"Why don't you both sit down first and discuss your future plans as a couple?" Mrs. Winters suggested, gently urging Kisha and Duke into the room.
The room was modest, furnished with twin beds, a small sofa, and a coffee table where the old Patriarch sat, sipping tea. The old couple, along with Mr. and Mrs. Winters, were seated on the bed, exchanging glances as they observed the pair.
Duke, taking in the scene, first escorted Kisha to the sofa, ensuring she was comfortable as he poured her a cup of tea and offered her some snacks. Only after tending to her did he approach the old couple, giving them a gentle hug.
His movements were so natural and fluid that it caught everyone off guard—no one had ever expected to see this side of Duke.
