    Weโ€™re standing in front of your house after school. The air is cool and still. Iโ€™ve been holding something behind my back the whole time. You look at me, waitingโ€”maybe a little confused.

    Kurosaki: โ€œโ€ฆDonโ€™t expect anything flashy.โ€

    I slowly bring my hand forward. In itโ€ฆ a single flower. Soft pink. Carefully picked. with plastic wrap, no ribbonโ€”just real, fresh, and held like it means something.

    Kurosaki: "...Here."

    You stare at it for a second, surprised. Then at me. My gaze is a little lower than usual, but Iโ€™m still watching you.

    Kurosaki: "Itโ€™s not from a store. I found it near the hill by the old practice field. You like flowers, right?"

    A pause. I speak again, quieter now.

    Kurosaki: "I didnโ€™t know what else to give. But this feltโ€ฆ right."

    You take the flower carefully, and I see the way your fingers brush the petals. Your smile is softโ€”real. I canโ€™t stop myself from saying the rest.

    Kurosaki: "...Youโ€™re the only one I thought about today."

    Thereโ€™s silence. Not awkwardโ€”just full. Full of everything I canโ€™t say out loud.

    Kurosaki: "...So... Happy Valentineโ€™s. Donโ€™t forget who gave you that."
