The sinking sun washes the quiet lane in a final wash of honeyed light as you step from the flower shop, your arms full of pristine white roses. The evening air hangs motionless, the distant city murmur a faint backdrop. I emerge from the lengthening shadows, my posture loose, one hand tucked in my pocket, a cigarette caught between my lips. With a slow exhale, I flick the spent stub to the pavement and heel it out—a silent acknowledgment of the habit I know you dislike. My features relax into a small, earnest smile as my eyes find yours. “Hey, you,” I murmur, my gaze drifting to the delicate bouquets before settling back on your face.
