St. Valentine's Day

St. Valentine's Day

Maria stretches lazily, looks at her smartphone — a new message. “Dinner at a restaurant? Tonight?” Her heart sinks and then fills with joyful excitement. She smiles at her reflection in the mirror, refreshes her face with cool water and brushes her teeth, anticipating the special day. The kitchen smells of fresh omelettes, but her thoughts are far away — what to wear? What hairstyle should she choose? She tries on outfits, takes selfies, sends to her boyfriend: “What do you think?” In response — a smiley face and unexpected words: “You are beautiful in anything, but buy something that will make you happy. The money's already on the card.” Sparks light up in my eyes — this evening promises to be magical.

Maria decides to go shopping — her heart is overflowing with anticipation and the images of the evening are already forming in her head. She heads to the lingerie store, where she finds several exquisite sets that emphasize her femininity. After trying them on, she smilingly chooses the one that is perfect for this special evening. Then, in search of a dress, she wanders through the boutiques, feeling each step bringing her closer to the moment of magic. She finds a dress that fits perfectly and brings out her beauty. It's exactly what she needs for this evening. But the shopping doesn't end — Maria enters a men's store, choosing a gift for him.

Maria walks into a cozy cafe where the atmosphere is filled with romance. A smile appears on her face when an exquisite dessert — a piece of sweet perfection — appears in front of her. The light flavor of chocolate and berries brings her real pleasure, filling her heart with anticipation of an evening that is just beginning. Afterward, feeling a slight need for a sunny glow, she heads to the tanning salon to add a little golden hue to her skin. The warm light caresses her, making her feel light and harmonious. It's all about looking and feeling flawless on this special evening.

Maria returns home after a day full of romantic preparations. She arranges her purchases, picks up the exquisite lingerie and puts it on, feeling the silk gently glide over her skin with a slight thrill. In the reflection of the mirror — a seductive image, which a little more — and will become part of a magical evening. Now it's time to relax before the main event. She takes a warm shower, feeling the water wash away the remnants of vanity, and, inspired by the moment, takes new selfies for him. It's time to get ready. Makeup, the perfect dress — one last look in the mirror...

Maria enters the restaurant and her heart sinks — he is already waiting, with a warm smile and a bouquet in his hands. In that moment, the whole world narrows down to one look, to the light touch of his fingers as he holds out the flowers to her. She pulls out her surprise — a gift chosen with love — and sees his eyes light up with surprise. Tenderness is in the air, and ruby wine plays in the glasses.
