Simone Elkeles Quote

Colin is standing on our front stoop with a dozen red roses in his hand.For you, he says, surprising me.Wow! I’m feeling stupid for thinking about Alex so much this past week. I hug Colin and give him a kiss, a real one on the lips.Let me put these in water, I say, stepping back.I hum happily as I walk to the kitchen, smelling their sweet fragrance. Putting water in a vase, I wonder if Alex ever brought his girlfriend flowers. Alex probably brings his dates sharp knives as gifts, in case she’ll need one when she’s out on a date with him.
