‘Look at that wonderful cake,’ she said.
‘Nice,’ he said.
‘Right in the middle of that excellent cake shop.’
‘I realise that.’
‘It’s gorgeous… three layers, lovely, and it looks rather retro.’
‘It’s big.’
‘It’s just that… well, I was thinking, you know…’ as her voice trailed off.
He said nothing.
‘Are we moving to the next shop?’ he asked.
‘Oh no, not quite yet,’ as she lingered. ‘We could have an anniversary treat… it’s just a little bit early.’
‘Yep, that’s what we should do.’
She opened the cake shop door.
He followed her.
‘It’s flower power, isn’t it.’

Good idea, Darnell. I shall get some pretty candles, but not too much, otherwise it might go on fire!
P.S. still I can’t write back on yours: I said – aww, so sweet!
