Christine, my "Houdini", took out two beautiful stems of orchids and presented them to Rachel's mom. We thought she would also give the red roses to her, but she did not. She told me that she knew that
red roses were meant for reaching out to a special person. That made me a bit more confused. I could also feel the
wave of happiness in my heart... at least I

didn't have to tell her that
I've fallen. I thought she was smart enough to get it and brought the roses for me. I could feel that I was getting more and more impatient but could not ask for those roses from her either. She seemed completely careless about it and went on talking to Rachel and her mom. Were the roses really for me or had someone else entered into her life? Why wasn't Rachel asking anything about the roses? I was lot more interested in the roses than I was about hanging around with the three
most talkative women in the world!

It took almost an hour for them to wind up their medical session. Ahhh.... now it was the time, I thought. Christy turned back and walked straight to my car. The more I studied her, the more confused I became. "Hey Mike... lets go," she said. It was becoming really tough for me not to say anything. I couldn't find words to ask her what those roses were for. I picked up my drink and went towards my car. I could hear the crunching of stones just beneath my sneakers.

I could feel my heart skipping beats. Who's that very lucky prince to
win Christy's heart? I was sure that it wasn't me. A faint shiver ran down my spine... I felt, when I heard, "whuzzup Mike... why are you lost?" It was Christy. "Lets go, I wanna give this to somebody." "Who's he?" I asked her. "You can see him in Henry Reeves Park. Let's go there," she said. That was the first time that I drove so recklessly! As my car screeched to a stop in front of the park, I noticed Uncle Fred with his walking stick. Now my confusion had to be magnified a thousand times. Christy's face brightened up
a glowing smile, seeing Uncle Fred. Stay tuned to know how Fred did that all.
