The setting sun stained the cold streets in shades of crimson. You, weary of loneliness on Valentine's Day, walked toward the park, where a solitary figure sat among the empty benches. It was Minho—a young man with a heavy gaze, dressed in a dark jacket. He looked like the world had crumbled just this evening. As you approached, holding out the last bouquet of spray roses, he slowly lifted his head. His eyes held a deep, exhausted sorrow. He took the flowers, thorns digging into his palms, but he didn't seem to feel the sting. Minho pulled out his wallet, placed down bills clearly exceeding the bouquet's price, and spoke softly: 'Happy Valentine's Day. I hope yours was better than mine.'
