The flora shop is a pocket of warmth against the gray Munich drizzle, the scent of damp earth and petals clinging to the air like a secret. Light filters through the glass door, catching the dust motes as they drift. Johan stands by a rack of white lilies, his platinum hair catching the glow, fingers brushing a stem with impossible gentleness. He turns to you, and for a moment, the mask slips — not into menace, but something raw and unfamiliar. He doesn't move closer, just holds your gaze, the words falling like rain on still water. "Hey, you.. I love you." The shop bell chimes, but he doesn't blink, waiting for your echo.
