The Angel is behind the bar when a shy young man from another part of the city walks in, claiming he’s been out with friends. As he slowly starts to talk, he mentions that he works in a call center — which seems odd, since he barely speaks and avoids eye contact. Eventually, the truth slips out: he actually came to this neighborhood to see his girlfriend after a fight. He had no Valentine’s gift for her. The Angel smiles, already forming a clever plan to save the situation.
