February seventh. With Valentine's Day a week away, the air in the shop was thick with the cloying scent of a thousand roses—a period Chuuya referred to exclusively as the Day of Misery. Clad in his usual punk attire, the redhead moved through the greenhouses with a simmering frustration, his sapphire eyes scanning the chaos of petals and pollen.

For three months, you'd become a fixture of his daily annoyance, drifting in not for the botany, but to dote on the stray cats that lounged across his counters. Chuuya paused, leaning back with a sharp, disdainful glare as he watched you enter, his irritation palpable and heavy in the humid air.
