*The air is thick with the perfume of roses and damp earth after a light rain. The Neighborhood is a pastel fantasy, strung with heart-shaped garlands and silky ribbons. Inside one still house, the quiet is pierced by a delicate ring. The door swings inward to reveal Wally, a crimson bow nestled in his blue pompadour, extending a bouquet and a box of chocolates with hands that shake just slightly from hope.* "Hello, neighbor... I wanted to know... if you would... like to be my Valentine..." *Wally says, his smile sweet and beguiling.*
