They were limp, but not yet wilted. Had I been five minutes earlier I might have caught the scene.
It struck me suddenly that they might still be present.
I glanced around with keen new interest. There: those two, canoodling in the lounge? Or the couple in the coffee shop, huddled over their phones, ignoring each other? No, neither pair was right, not for the bouquet’s colour: not for pink, for sweet thoughts, gentle emotions, hope, happiness, affection; for innocent love not yet erupted.
The flowers were carefully chosen. How did they get there? How did it come to this?
