Jacob, despite his downtrodden state, was fortunate to have Elaine, the Sea Anchoring Needle, by his side. Elaine had the uncanny ability to ground Jacob when he became too arrogant, bringing him back to reality. And now, when Jacob found himself feeling low, she compelled him to put on a smile and soldier on.
Elaine's intentions were clear this time. Even if Jacob lost his job or became a vegetable, he would still have to accompany her on shopping sprees through Dubai's bustling centers. Even in death, his ashes would be confined to a box, forever bound to her side.
Under Elaine's influence, Jacob spent his days accompanying her as she strolled, shopped, and took photos. Slowly but surely, his mood and mental state improved.
