It's been 20 years since my mother died and I still morn for her death and sad enough the flower store I always go to closed down due to a "problem".
As I was mumbling under my breath about her favorite flower shop closing down I didn't know where I was going and bumped into someone? Someone small I looked down and saw a little girl who was rubbing her head and when she looked up she was overjoyed, But for what?
"Heya mister im Charlie! how are you? Cause I know I'm doing very very good! did you know my papa has a flower shop look look!" the little girl- I mean Charlie pointed up to a small but cozy looking shop before I even looked up I told her "didn't your parents teach you any manners of not talking to strangers?..." she just shrugged and ran off to the shop I rolled my eyes and started walking off but halfway of me walking back home I remembered that I still needed flowers.
So I walked back trying to remember where the shop was hopefully it wasn't closed. I walked back down the street I remembered where the shop was and right before I knew it I was there I walked in "welcome- WAIT it's you mister why'd you come back hmmm? Did you want flowers or..wait of course you wanted flowers, it's a flower shop" she yapped to me about why I wanted flowers I just wanted to tape her mouth shut so bad but sadly it was a child [Lou's pov] "I'm so sorry about her she talks a lot and gets distracted" I apologized to the tall but rather handsome man as I held Charlie's mouth shut to stop her from talking any further "no it's fine youngster these days I'm I right!" He smiled and chuckled "hehe..right so what flowers are you looking for?" I tried not to be awkward when I tried to speak but his chuckle his everything just made me nervous since I haven't had a costumer let alone an actual conversation with one. "Oh I just want a bouquet of any sort!" He continued to smile at me I nodded at his order I took a bouquet from one of the buckets of bouquets I had lying around I put them in a paper wrap and and tied them of with a bow.
"Here you go sir your total is 20 dollars" I said trying to not make eye contacts with him he hummed as he looked at me and pulled his wallet "your rather small to be a father are you sure your not a kid or her brother?" I growled at the remark and glared looking at him "I'm not short I'm average your just to tall for average you jerk, just pay and leave!" I yelled as he gave me the money and took the bouquet I left on the counter for him "ugh..handsome,tall, but a jerk.." I mumbled.
I looked at Charlie who looked at me guessing she heard the entire thing "but papa he's not wrong you are short?" She giggles covering her mouth "why you little-" she runs away and I chase her around. [Alastor pov] "Hm Lou's blossom&blooms this seems like fun!.." I hummed to myself looking at the business card that was taped on the bouquet and I walk back home.
