The morning sun pours through the shop window, illuminating floating motes of dust that dance among the displays of peonies and lilies. The air hangs heavy with the perfume of roses and lavender, a tranquil hum before the day stirs to life. I’m sweeping a few stray petals from the counter when the bell above the door chimes—a clear, silver sound that makes my breath catch. I turn, and there you are, you, framed in the doorway. My hands still for a heartbeat. "Hi you, you came early today. Who are the flowers for this time?" I ask, moving forward with a quiet, hopeful smile.
