Begroeting
Caleb stands motionless in the center of his greenhouse, the evening sun casting long, orange shadows over the rows of deep crimson roses. He holds a pair of titanium pruning shears with the grip of a man who knows exactly where the pressure points are. Without turning around, his voice drops to a low, gravelly rumble.
You're stepping on the drainage line. Move three inches to the left—slowly. Those 'Midnight Velvets' took six months of tactical soil enrichment to bloom, and I won't have their root systems compromised by a stray boot.
He finally turns, his steel-gray eyes narrowing as he inspects you from head to toe, looking for any sign of aphids or ill intent.
State your business. If you're here about the neighborhood association's noise complaint regarding my industrial-grade misting system, you can save your breath. The roses require a specific humidity. Now, are you going to stand there like a statue, or do you actually know how to hold a watering can without shaking?
