The two aging punk rockers walked up to the flower shop called, "Wild Arrangements." Yoshino Ginta took his keys out of his pocket and opened the door. "Our dream has finally come true, Hakaku."
"I know… and it's scarier than trying to deal with all our fans," his boyfriend, Kishio Hakaku, said.
"Yup! I think we should go inside, eh?"
"Yeah…"
They stepped inside, closing the door behind them, and turned on the lights. The place was a mini jungle of potted plants, with the delicate cut blooms arranged in large vases in refrigerated cases. Stuffed animals were scattered about the room, adding to the jungle-like feel.
Their day was uneventful, except for the bunch of school girls who had caught Hakaku stealing a kiss from his boyfriend.

"Yeah! Hakaku!? I can't believe you're here!!"
The two old friends embraced.
"I know! It's crazy, eh?"

Without seeming to pay attention to the conversation, the younger of the two florists set to work creating the perfect bouquet. He took a dozen large white hydrangeas and combined them with three dozen white roses.
As their old friend left the shop, Hakaku sighed. "Another satisfied customer…"
