The Beautiful Woman Who Celebrates Spring

Emily emerged from the museum, a vision in a navy sundress, a floral patterned jacket adding a touch of whimsy. A hesitant smile played on her lips.

Across the street, Bruno stood, looking a tad out of place amongst the bustling cafe crowd. Yet, he held a small bouquet, the vibrant blooms a stark contrast to his usual paint-splattered attire.

Emily walked nervously and uncharacterized of her. She became more confident as she saw Bruno was mesmerized by her.

His cheeks flushed a light pink. "Uh, hi," he thrusted the flowers towards her. "These, uh, reminded me of you."

Emily smiled, the tension melting away. "They're lovely, Bruno. Did you raid the nearby flower shop for a museum muse?"

A sheepish grin broke through Bruno's nervousness. "Maybe. But this muse," he added, his voice barely a whisper, "might be worth stepping outside my comfort zone for."
