Its sweet scent fills my room, a gentle reminder of his thoughts. At the diner, it's always a delivery of another flower. Each time a single stem. I've received red carnations symbolizing 'deep admiration', white gardenias for 'you're lovely', purple irises for wisdom and compliments, yellow daffodils for new beginnings. Ellen, ever knowledgeable, shares the meanings of each flower, her eyes twinkling with excitement.

Maybe they had all been right when they called me a freak behind my back. Erik finally gives me what I want and leans over the ledge to examine the flowers in question. "It is interesting, for sure. There are Alva who can make plants grow that already exists, but none who can create new plant life." "What does that mean for me?" I feel myself leaning closer to him, staring up at him in anticipation.

She had just wanted to convey the message that she’d never marry Grandma Linda’s grandson since she didn’t like him, but now it didn't feel like the right one. "You’re right… that doesn’t suit her." She gently pulled the arrangement apart and began selecting new blooms. This time, ones that spoke of health, peace, and longevity. She smiled and took in the fresh scent of the flowers. Soon, the day was over and it was time to go home. ...... When Alina got home, she saw Lorraine on the couch watching a documentary. Without taking her eyes off the screen, Lorraine asked, “So, how did it go with Aiden?”

Lucas felt his head buzzing and could not believe what he was looking at. Death certificate? Whose death certificate had Cassie sent him? A figure appeared in his mind, but he discarded the thought as soon as it came to him. No, it was impossible! Cassie had Anya transferred to another hospital. She wouldn’t have died! He slowly pulled out the slip of paper with his trembling hands. Sure enough, Anya’s name was written on the document! In denial, he began to scrub at the letters, hoping that they would come off and reveal another name, but his efforts were in vain.

asked Gerald for confirmation. “Dead Annie! Two petals bloom and each petal represents a world!” replied the old woman in a rather mysterious manner. Gerald found himself raising a slight brow as he heard her talking about some mysterious plant. A flower that only bloomed two petals… Why did that sound so familiar? Thinking about it, he knew he had come across such a plant before. After all, natural flowers with only two petals were rare, so he would definitely remember if he had seen one before. But where?

"Her majesty, I saw her in the passage near the Falling River. She was seriously injured and there was a flower with her." "What flower?" Amnisty doesn't answer right away. She and the queen already talked about this situation but they need to do it again to inform Dealla. She sighs before answering. I hate repeating. "It's Peony." "Oh, what a nice flower and it's the favorite of our friend, Amnisty. Right?" "You're right, her majesty." "Since you don't remember your name, darling. How about I'll name you Peony? Is it fine with you?" The queen strokes some strands of Dealla's hair. She puts it behind her ear. The queen stares at Dealla’s face.

A young woman in her early twenties came forward and greeted Athena with a smile. "Good morning. I would like a pink magnolia bouquet." Athena greeted her back and gestured to the soft pink flower with a smile. Her heart clenched at the sight of the flower. "Sure. Would you like to add any other flowers to it? Or add any message in the card?" The salesgirl inquired. Athena stared at the pink magnolia for a while then slowly averted her eyes at the white magnolia which was right beside it. She stared at it with lingering eyes. Just in a few seconds, her eyes filled with water making her vision blur.

Spring arrived not as a single day but as a slow unfurling, the way the silver flower had opened its petals across the weeks. Clara noticed it first in the garden—the way the memory-flowers began to stretch toward the light, their grey-green leaves brightening, their white blooms edged with a gold that had not been there before. The gold flower at the base of the stone bench had grown again, its petals now the size of both her hands, and the silver flower had sent roots across the entire garden, thin white threads visible in the soil like veins beneath skin.

She stopped at a cluster of deep red ones with thick, almost armored petals. "These are my stubborn ones. They take the longest to open. You have to be patient with them, give them more than the others. Just when you've decided they'll never bloom, they do. When they finally open, they outlast every flower in this garden." I don't know why my mind went straight to Alan. Almost in sync, my phone dinged with a message from him, telling me he had just landed. I snapped a picture of the flowers and asked him to guess where I was.

"All I know is that she must be stupid to not accept you." "You say it as if she even knows I adore the very ground she walks on." I laughed bitterly. Alvara watched me from the corner of her eye. Tenderly, I stroked the flower in my hand. The petal felt soft, fragile. But hundreds bloomed around us. They were Savanah's favorite flower as well. I had planted these for her upon my return. To say sorry for my absence. "Is this why you joined me in the garden?" Alvara asked, letting her arms fall freely to her sides once more. Curiosity peeked through her irises.
