In the first story, a woman's mother is terminally ill and getting treatment at the hospital when she receives a single rose bud from an anonymous sender. Curiously, throughout the remaining time that her mother was still alive, the rose bud did not bloom, and even showed signs of wilting and decay, as if mirroring her mother's own deteriorating condition. Finally, the inevitable came about when her mother's health failed her late at night, which is when she noticed that the rose was in full bloom.

In the second story, a young boy accompanies his dad to work at a relatively remote building. However, the boy forgot to bring his books, got restless, and ended up venturing around the building looking for a vending machine to get a drink. This is where he would an encounter a gentle old man, who simply asked if the boy had 2 fifty cent coins to exchange for a dollar coin. But when the boy turned around, the old man had mysteriously vanished.
