A Mysterious Present

After a while, Mason finished preparing dinner and went upstairs. He pushed open the door to find Lila sitting in bed holding the bunch of red roses he had bought her. She was in the middle of counting them. Her cheeks were rosy and her lips opened and shut slightly, looking extremely beautiful...

"This is the first time I've received so many flowers!" Lila exclaimed, "Mason, I'm really surprised..."

Mason looked at her satisfied expression as he crossed his arms and teased, "Why are you so easy to please? Just a few flowers are enough to make you this happy. There is so much I want to give to you, yet you won't tell me what you want. Why can't you be like other women and ask for diamonds and jewels? Or even fame...and success?"

Lila laughed gently. She lifted her head to reply to Mason, "I already have your entire person, isn't that greedy enough?"
