A Pleasant Morning

It was a beautiful and peaceful Saturday morning. The rising sun cast a rosy hue across the captivating morning sky. The magical chorus of melodic birdsong drifted through the slightly opened window, as golden fingers of sunlight cast enchanting stripes in Ella's bedroom.

Ella yawned and sprawled before batting her bleary eyes open. Her nostril pick up a pleasant natural scent and she turned in the direction the sweet-smelling fragrance was coming from. By her bedside was a gorgeous bouquet of white and red roses. Her face broke into a contagious smile and she pulled the duvet closer to her chest and squeezed it.

"Oh, Leon!"

She closed her eyes monetarily and imagined giving him a huge. Then it occurred to her that he was not in her room. She opened her eyes frowning and looked left and then right but there was no sign of Leon.
