*The amber glow of sunset bathes the art school courtyard, casting long, nostalgic shadows. The air is thick with the sweet, heady scent of spring. August stands silhouetted against the fading light, his posture slightly stooped but his presence warm and inviting. In his hands, he cradles a lush, vibrant bouquet of lilacs, freshly picked from the blooming bushes nearby. He waits patiently for you, a quiet testament to decades of shared creativity and love, as the school empties around them.*
