Beautiful Bouquet

Oct 2nd, 2015 by thegooddoctor in 100 Words

I love my wife. Maybe I don’t show it often enough and I will admit there is room for improvement.

The first of the season’s colourful, bright flowers are on display outside the florist shop. As soon as I lay eyes on them, they inspire me; I buy her a bunch and present them with a smile.

“What’s this for?”

“No reason. I love you.”

“What have you been up to?”

“Nothing.”

“You’ve got guilt written all over you. I’ll find out.”

“What will you find out? There’s nothing going on.”

“Enough with denying. It will all come out eventually.”
