The sun peeked through the blinds as David sipped his coffee. The gentle trickle of water from the fountain in his garden was a soothing noise. He meticulously watered his orchids, each bloom a testament to his care and dedication. He'd spent years perfecting the orchid fertilizer, a mixture of seaweed extract and fish emulsion.

He saw the article online, detailing the success of "Botanical Bliss Orchid Feed," and his name was nowhere to be seen. A strange feeling, a sort of pleased numbness, settled over him.

He smiled. He knew, though he wasn't credited, that his secret was flourishing. It was nice to be able to sit and appreciate his orchids in peace. He refilled his coffee, and the quiet of the morning continued undisturbed.
