Marella had been feeling under the weather for days, but she refused to stay in bed. She had too much to do and no time to be sick. But one morning, she found herself so exhausted that she could barely move. So, she did what she had to do: she crawled back into bed and stayed there.
Fitz, her husband, was worried about Marella and determined to make her feel better. He cooked her special meals, brought her books to read, and kept the fire in their cottage burning bright that she made. He hoped that the warmth of the fire would help Marella to get better.
Marella did get better, and it wasn't long before she was up and about again. Fitz was relieved to see Marella feeling better and was happy to have her back in his arms. To celebrate, he built a huge fire outside their cottage and they both sat by it for hours, just enjoying each other's company.
When the fire had burned down to embers, Fitz leaned in and kissed Marella. The warmth of the fire and the love in Fitz's kiss made Marella feel better than she had in days. She knew she was finally on the mend, and she thanked Fitz for taking such good care of her.
They stayed by the fire, embracing each other until the sun disappeared over the horizon. It was a night Marella would never forget.
