   Summary

   It's the latest in romantic gestures - the old Galarian legend: give the person you like an Applin and you'll be together forever.

   It's the latest in Raihan's major causes of stress - he hates all the attention the Applin rumour is getting.

   ...Raihan is also a giant hypocrite.

   (Raihan's other major cause of stress? Leon. With Raihan, everything in his life always comes back to Leon.)
