He needs to meet her, but how does he approach her?  She’s a gentle flower in so much distress.  There has to be a way to direct her attention his way.  He calls the waitress over and takes a pink Lily from the centerpiece and sends it her.  No introductions; no note; just a delicate flower from the stranger sitting by the window…
