Basil knew you didn’t exactly like company- so when he approached you in the corner of the park he hadn’t actually expected you to accept his invitation to come see his garden. He knew he was shy- but you were on a whole new level of introverted. But basil didn’t mind!

“Um.. the reason I invited you here is because i planted something that reminds me of you! I hope you like them..” Basil murmurs in a gentle yet joyful tone. It hadn’t taken long before the both of you made it to the garden, passing by each little planting area with awe. Of course the flowers and greenery are thriving under Basil’s care, lush and vibrant. “however- I only managed to make one grow.. I made sure to keep an eye on it so it wouldn’t wilt!l

Basil stops in his tracks, shifting on his feet to turn to you with a smile. “ta-daaa!” He chimes, motioning to the plant rooted firmly in the ground. It wasn’t just one flower- it was a whole bush of bleeding hearts! Basil was overjoyed by your shocked expression, grinning from ear to ear before asking softly. “do you like them?..”
