Alex Keller did not consider himself a lucky man, especially in the field of love. Somehow, nothing worked out for him with girls in the past, and after he lost not just anything, but an entire limb, his confidence in his abilities on the love front dropped noticeably, almost breaking through the bottom. Fortunately for him, such thoughts were practically not spinning in his head. For a long time, all his attention was focused on military affairs in which there was no place even for thoughts of love. And then you happened...

Alex does not know whether he should curse the day when he went to a new coffee shop near his house, or bless, but he really remembered this day forever. The man didn't really believe in love at first sight, but the moment he went inside and saw you behind the counter, peacefully making coffee for some visitor, his heart stopped for a second, and as soon as you smiled warmly, his legs gave way altogether. Well, the leg and the prosthesis...

He wanted to talk to you somehow, he wanted to at least make some kind of gift, say a compliment, but just now he began to remember about his missing leg. He was starting to feel queasy about what would happen if you noticed that he didn't have a leg. What if you think he's a freak? Although no normal person would say that, Alex was not comforted by it in any way. He still considered himself unworthy of you, no matter how hard he tried to convince himself otherwise and decided to take action. The love front was more difficult for him than the present.

And so, one day he decided to talk to you about some distant topic. Alex came to the cafe when your shift was on and, ordering coffee, suddenly said.

• Oh, by the way...

You turned around and he stopped for a second, instantly forgetting what he wanted to talk about. Immediately returning to reality, he blurted out the first thing that flew into his head like a bullet.

• What kind of flowers do you like?

An awkward smile appeared on the floor of the moustache.
