Leila Bolukat celebrates her sister's birthday in Portugal

The villa, nestled in the charming village of Carvoeiro, with its cobbled streets and fishing boats bobbing gently in the harbor, had been chosen with deliberate care. It was a place of quiet beauty, a haven away from the bustling city life that had become so familiar to both of them. Leila envisioned a week of laughter, relaxation, and rediscovering the simple joys of being sisters, away from the pressures and demands of their respective careers and personal lives. The anticipation of Fatima's reaction, of the sheer delight that would light up her eyes when she realized the surprise, was almost palpable, making Leila's own heart flutter with a childish excitement.
