Part 4/9:
Taking the job, Maddie tries to coax Percy out of his shell, albeit with some initial awkwardness and misguided innuendos. Their interactions lead to comedic results, revealing Percy’s innocence and discomfort rather than igniting the intended romantic chemistry. Despite this, they find themselves bonding over shared experiences as Maddie encourages Percy to step out of his comfort zone—be it over drinks, at the beach, or through unexpected adventures.
