Roses are Red
As 老夫老妻，we have not been celebrating V’day since the our patoring days. Hence, i wasn’t expecting anything from hubby yesterday. Well, he’s getting ‘smarter’ these days and have mastered the ‘arts of surprises’.
I received this bunch of roses (20 stalks to be exact)delivered to the office from hubby yesterday. It was coincident that the usually-prefer-to-lunch-out me decided to join the majority of the office girls when they said they wanted to dabao.
I was in the midst of having lunch at the pantry with the girls when someone shouted for my name to receive the roses. The next thing i heard was the girls went ‘wah…’ (with hint of envy)… and i went ‘huh’ and was in a bit of shock when I signed for it. Was so embarassed by the attention.
After I took from the roses from the delivery guy, my immediate reaction was “So…EXPENSIVE!” and I quickly placed it on the nearest table when I can find space for and put it there as though it was not for me (*in a mum in guilt mood that money was spent on roses instead of diapers) and continued digging into my food while the girls continuing to wow at the roses.
After 2 spoonfuls of rice, I kinda recovered from the shock and told them jokingly “oh ya, I have not seen who it’s from… ‘skarlly’ it’s not from my hubby..” and the girls laughed! Luckily there’s a card with his words and name on it…:)
Hub already pre-warned me not to expect any flowers next year for V’day as this year’s flowers is accumulated from the past few years when he haven’t been giving me anything. 
Anyway, thanks dear. It’s a nice surprise and I appreciate it, really.
