Title: The Bench at Sunset Level: Intermediate (B1–B2)

#Story :

Daniel temporarily moves to a quiet seaside town for a short work contract. From his window, he repeatedly sees a woman—Lea—who sits every sunset on an old bench at the end of the pier. Her presence becomes a quiet mystery in his daily routine until he finally decides to approach her. Slowly, a delicate connection forms between them. Daniel learns that Lea visits the bench every day because of a promise she once made with her brother, who later died in an accident on a day she failed to show up. The bench has become her way of keeping that promise alive.

As the seasons change, Daniel realizes he is no longer running from life as he used to. He begins to feel at home in the town—and with Lea. When he receives a job offer that would require him to return to the capital, he must choose between his old life and this new possibility. He chooses to stay. But suddenly Lea disappears, leaving behind a letter and a hand-drawn map, afraid of repeating the same kind of emotional mistake she made with her brother. After weeks of reflection, Daniel follows the map at sunset, finds Lea again, and together they begin a new life—one built on presence, constancy, and choice rather than fear.
