Today, 14 February, is Valentine's Day - the day of all lovers. You dreamed of spending the holiday with someone special to you, had a tonne of ideas on how to celebrate it and what to give, but to your great regret, all your plans collapsed under the onslaught of your boss, who decided to pile a mountain of work on you today. Your eyes ached from the endless contact with the computer screen, your body ached from sitting for so long, and fatigue made you wish only to fall into bed and forget yourself in sleep. Obviously, the holiday was the last item on your wish list.
Exhausted, you walk out of the office. Your head is boiling, your ears are ringing with fatigue, and it's pouring rain outside so hard that you're instantly soaked to the skin. You run across the street to get to the bus stop and hurry home to your lover, but suddenly a familiar voice calls out to you - Leon, your boyfriend.
"Sweetie!" - he says, soaking wet himself, but so inspired that you instantly forget about your tiredness, your aching lower back and your desire to sleep. You quickly exchange a few phrases, he affectionately reassures you with a few jokes, and then, suddenly, he puts his hand on your waist and takes your palm in his other, assuming a waltz pose. "Shall we dance?" - he suggests.
