Virgil came back to his shop the next day and found the rose, as well as the note. He smiled and went to read it, sitting at his table
Dear Virgil,
I'm glad you responded. Nothing behind the rose. Just think it's pretty. Though I guess if it were to have a meaning it would be joy. Before you say that's not what they represent, they're actually something from a moment of joy in my life so to me that is what they mean to me. Feel free to interperet them how you like though. What about your chrysanthemum? It means delicate love.
Dee
