A Friend

The next day, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the city, Wilson decided to follow Daniel's suggestion. Seeking to convey support without intruding, he arranged for a bouquet of flowers to be sent to Mindy's doorstep.

The delicate arrangement, a kaleidoscope of vibrant blooms, carried a note that simply read, "In moments of uncertainty, may these flowers brighten your day. Wishing you strength and resilience. - A Friend."

As the delivery was made, Wilson silently hoped that this gesture would reach Mindy in a way his direct attempts had not. The anonymity of the gesture aimed to offer comfort without imposing, giving Mindy the space she needed to process the complexities of her situation.
