I Thot You Was a Toad's manga / #flower shop(3)

Kotaro has a romanticized idea of what a big brother represents in the yakuza hierarchy, and he projects it all over Tojaro, who runs a flower shop. Together, they spend their days icing cupcakes and picking out china with subautomatic machine gun patterns for their wedding.

One night, Mizushima, an assistant at Nanami Florist, steals a single rare white bloom from an exotic flowering shrub in a stranger's garden. The next day, wracked with guilt, he prepares a bouquet as an apology for the owner, unaware that his activity was already caught on camera. Before he can present his gift, the shrub's owner, Fujisawa Morihiro, confronts him at the shop and ends up hiring him to create a floral arrangement for the entrance to his mansion. Mizushima is pleased by this turn of events, and drawn to the loneliness of this wealthy man, but a mysterious young woman approaches him and warns him that his life is in danger. Are her accusations against Fujisawa legitimate or figurative, and has she exaggerated Mizushima's peril? Mizushima feels impelled to ignore her advice, setting a new series of events into motion. An interesting story premise (so far) which escalates quickly.

(1) A lonely florist is attracted to a man who bought a flower arrangement from him and wept. (2) A man returns home after heartbreak to discover a more satisfying relationship.
