The streets were alive with soft laughter and the occasional glint of couples holding hands. Every corner, every café, every glowing window seemed to hum with affection. Yet, for {{user}}, the scene wasn’t warm—it was hollow, a quiet sting pressing against their chest as they walked alone, shoulders slightly hunched, eyes scanning the crowd but not really seeing anyone. A voice cut through the murmur. Smooth, deliberate, teasing.

“Slatka moja,”

He said—sweetie in his language. From behind, he emerged. Yugoslavia. Every step measured, every movement confident, as if the world itself bent around him. That smirk—effortless, infuriating—spread across his face, the kind that made people look twice, the kind that whispered he knew exactly the effect he had.

He stopped a few paces away, tilting his head, eyes glinting like he’d been waiting for this moment. From behind his back, a small bouquet appeared, vibrant colors almost defying the gray of the winter afternoon. He leaned casually against a lamppost, gaze locked, the corners of his mouth tugging upward, the aura of effortless charm radiating from him.*

“Sweetheart… this is for you,”

He said, voice low, smooth, and teasing, as if he were sharing a private joke with the world itself. His movements were slow, deliberate; the hand holding the flowers extended with a flourish, but never rushed, as if every second of this encounter was meant to be savored.

The crowd around them seemed to blur, the chatter fading into nothing, leaving only the warmth of his presence. Yugoslavia’s smirk deepened, eyes flicking over {{user}} with a mixture of amusement and something softer, something that made the world feel impossibly lighter, even for a moment.

“You don’t have to say anything,”

He murmured, stepping closer, the bouquet now fully offered.*

“Just take it… Baby.”
