After A Long Time (Rooftop Prince OST) - Jo Eun (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=goL5goKJ1Fg)     ----------------------- Narrator’s P.O.V:     A small bell chimed as the door to Lilia Florists opened.   Still feeling down, Hana glanced around the store. The aroma of different flowers hit her all at once as she took in the beautiful scenery. Flowers of all colours and species greeted her happily.   Her stirring heart seemed to calm down, even though it was just a little.   As Hana touched a petal of a nearby cherry blossom, an elderly woman came into view. Hana straightened up and bowed her head a bit in respect.   The older lady smiled warmly, “Hello dear. I take it you’re waiting to buy some flowers?”   “Yes.” Hana glanced at the cherry blossoms, “I’d like three bouquets please.”   The ahjumma beamed, “Of course, dear. Follow me.” She led the way to the cashier as Hana trailed behind her, staring at the never-ending flowers in awe.   “You’ve got a beautiful shop, ahjumma. All the flowers are so exquisite.” Hana blurted out.   The woman turned around in surprise but soon chuckled, “…Why thank you. Not many youngsters come around and actually appreciate nature anymore. It’s saddening, really. Only materialistic things and technology occupy their minds.” She clucked her tongue with a sad shake of her head.   Hana’s eyes widened a bit as she took that in.

I forgot to ask what flowers to buy.* She frowned for a bit.   Deciding to just choose for herself, Hana glanced around at the flowers. Her eyes lit up when she saw two pretty ones that glowed in the store.   “Can I have one bouquet of red, white, and pink carnations and another of daisies?” She questioned.   The ahjumma smiled and nodded her head, punching it in. “Good choice. You still have one more bouquet.”   Suddenly, the cherry blossoms from before appeared in her mind.   “As for the last bouquet… Can I have one of cherry blossoms?” She softened.   She gazed at Hana thoughtfully, “But cherry blossoms don’t have a long lifespan. They won’t last.”   Hana took that into consideration for a second before shaking her head, “I don’t mind. Although the flowers’ beauty lasts for a short time, it’s better to have made the most of it, right? Please wrap them up for me beautifully. I’ll leave the decoration to you.”   The lady grinned approvingly, “Of course. The flowers for sale are in the back room.” She typed the bouquets in and Hana paid for them. The lady glanced back, “One cherry blossom, one daisy, and a colourful carnation bouquet!”   After a while of rus
