"I got your flowers."
"Did you like them?"
"They're beautiful."
"But did you like them?"
"I can't be bribed."
"I'm not trying to."
"Then what are the flowers?"
"A sign of my affection and sincere apologies?"
"To make me feel like I have to forgive you because you went out and spent money."
"Why can I never do anything right?"
"... I dunno."
"Aren't orchids your favorite?"
"Yes.."
*deep sigh* "Baby I gotta go."
"..."
"Rose?"
"Um yeah call you later."
-Phone call ends-
"He called me baby.."
