ARDOUIN​, timothe —

Location: Evergreen Nursery @margotsmart​

Tim walked into the nursery checking his balance with nervous hands. He typed in his account number and got a pretty nice looking number back. More than enough to pay for another bouquet of flowers and one of those apology cards. His upstairs neighbour had gotten really mad at him the other day for playing his music too loudly and leaving it on when he went to do some grocery shopping. Tim had said sorry about nine-times, but the man had continued to yell at him. Since buying flowers had been his most used way to apologise to his parents, he had gotten used to the practice. 

And he had walked into Evergreen about once a week since he moved into Fremont. “Hi, uhm, I was wondering if you have some blue flowers?” he asked the owner of Evergreen - or at least he assumed she was the owner-, her name was Margot, he’d been in here far too often. He picked out one of the “I’m sorry” cards, and held it nervously in his hands.

                       “You want the whole stack?” Margot motioned to the ‘I’m sorry’ card the patron held in his hand. At this point, she was sure he would come back around to buy the cards and flowers again. It was almost like a ritual at this point from what she had noticed. 

She had thought of the many different reasons for him to buy this many sorry flowers for could be. But in the end, her conclusion was nothing more than a theory. Over the weeks, she had become somewhat curious. Albeit, it was none of her business, nonetheless, her curiosity had peaked and she couldn’t hold herself back from asking the reason behind all the business she had been receiving from him. “You must’ve done something really terrible to be that sorry, huh?”
