How cute can Valentine's Day be? For us, two 5-year-old kids from New York have surpassed the definition of cuteness. Why so? You'll know once you see it. The clip, uploaded on the YouTube channel ViralHog, shows a 5-year-old boy from the US going about Valentine's Day ritual in the sweetest way possible. He wears a tuxedo and carries a bouquet of flowers and a toy in his arms. The boy walks up to the door of a house and waits in the snow for it to open.

While viewers wait to see what happens next, a man opens the door. The boy asks him if he could meet a girl named Lyla. When the girl arrives, the boy steps into the house and hands over the flowers and gifts to the girl. Before stepping out, he also wishes her, "Happy Valentine's Day."

But that's not how it ends. The boy receives a heartwarming return gift too. Before returning home, he receives a tight hug from Lyla. The Internet is going into a meltdown after watching the video.

Written by the boy's dad, it read, "At the beginning of February, my son asked if he could get some chocolate and a stuffie for his Valentine.

The boy also gave a lot of thought to his attire. "I told him since he wanted to do this to pick out a nice shirt for when we go over. He slept on it and told me the next morning that he decided to wear his tux," read the caption. There's more, "He was so nervous before going over that he practised at home, what to do if her parents answered and how to ask her to be his Valentine. Lyla was very happy and all smiles after we left but my son thought he had messed up." The caption ended, "Anthony and Lyla are in kindergarten together and also sit together on the bus."
