“Can I take a look?”
The shop assistant appeared slightly taken aback but still gave him the phone. It displayed a secretly recorded video that had garnered millions of likes.
In a rose field, a woman’s skirt swirled in the breeze as she played Chopin’s Waltz with remarkable intensity. She exuded boldness, radiance, and vibrant energy–like a blooming white rose, unmatched by any simple daisy.
