💊 @vintagevioletco popped a joy !
The day had finally come. Cravings were roaring from the very pit of a very malnourished gut. Honestly, the bloke could do with a few sweets here and there. But with head heavy in work and mind oh, so forgetful, it's difficult to actually find the time to eat. The meals his lover prepared were always so delicious and so filling! Albeit the duties of the weekly paper called stronger, and with much more importance than a small meal to feast on. However, it hit Arthur that he could have chocolate again! It was an exciting revelation!
He remembered from before, Valentina's shop. It had delicious little knick-knacks. Though the memory had been lost for a time, it had been rediscovered upon glancing at a bouquet of roses he found at the local florist the other day. Distinct flashbacks of handing the exact woman he loves a sovereign in exchange for sugared rose petals. They weren't much but they were as sweet and delicate of a tasty treat that he could remember. He fawns for them again, but this time, covered in a thin, delicious layer of melted dark chocolate.
He promised Val to help in exchange for them. And there was every intention of keeping his promise.
" Look at that. The roses are all dried up. " Though there were more sitting out, he carried three of the clipped flora in his hands. Delicate touch as he lifts them up to display them to Valentina. A wide smile as he steps closer, glancing down from her beautiful face down to the rustic pink that these old flowers inhibited. He plucks a petal off, looking at it, and crushing it in his palm before continuing. " I think that means we ought to put the chocolate on them now. Want me to get the bars out the cupboard for you? Or shall I start the heat on the stove? "
