The avatar will be saying this "Mara noticed it on her walk home—the last peach hanging from old Mrs. Ellery’s tree. Every summer, that tree overflowed, and Mrs. Ellery would wave from her porch, insisting everyone take a few. But this year, the branches stayed mostly bare, and Mrs. Ellery’s porch stayed empty. Mara stopped under the tree, staring at that single peach glowing in the late afternoon light. She remembered the year she’d moved in, how Mrs. Ellery had shown up at her door with a basket of them “to sweeten the transition,” she’d said with a wink. Mara reached up, plucked the peach, and held it for a moment—warm, soft, perfectly ripe. Instead of taking a bite, she walked up the quiet porch steps and set it gently on the old woman’s doormat. The next morning, she found a note there instead, written in shaky handwriting: “Thank you for remembering me.” And for some reason, that small sentence felt like the sweetest thing to blossom on Maple Street all year."
