"Are you sure about starting the flower shop again?", Cyno asked with a bit of a worried tone.

"Of course I am. You don't expect me to sit at home doing nothing right?", Tighnari asked back with a bit of a smile.

"Just... don't push yourself too hard. We are making enough money from the aphrodisiac as it is... so I don't understand why you still want to work. You've only just recovered."

"I am not doing this simply cause I need money. This flower shop is the whole reason why I could afford to live with Collei for so many years. Don't you think abandoning this work now would mean betraying everything that this shop has given me for all these years?"

Cyno understood Tighnari's feelings very well. "I get it Nari... but take it easy okay?"

"If course. I am smarter than that", Tighnari replied. "You should get going. You didn't oversee the shipping for the past 2 days because you were taking care of me at home. Go and do it all today"

Cyno kissed Tighnari and smiled. "Yes My Dear Prince. I'll get going~"

As soon as Cyno walked out of the house, Tighnari walked down to the shop. It had been shut down for way too long. But he had cleaned everything so the shop looked as good as new.

He had plucked lots of flowers and also cleaned the outskirts of the avidya forest behind his house to grow more flowers. He pulled up the shutter and the light entered into the shop for the first time in years.

As soon as he got to work, people started flowing in.

"You are back? I thought this shop was gonna be closed forever"

"Ahh- This old soul was devastated after you left. I am glad you are back"

"Wow your flowers are just as good as I remember!"

Tighnari smiled at his customers. "I was gone for quite a while. But thanks to that I have learnt a lot so I hope I can make ever better flower bouquets for you all"

After about two hours, the crowd had finally subsided and he sat down on his chair with a sigh of tiredness. "I did not think so many people would come here today. Its already so tiring..."

But seeing all of his old customers made him feel a sense of happiness. The fact the flowers he gave them had touched their hearts enough for them to not forget him made him feel all fluffy and warm.

The door of the shop again opened.

"Ah what would you like?", Tighnari asked with a smile but he did not look at the customer yet. He was carefully cutting a leaf from the flower stem.

"Tighnari...?"

A familiar voice.

A voice almost too familiar to him.

Tighnari paused. He looked up at his customer and immediately he became startled.

"Lisa..."
