— У меня завтра день рождения.
— О, - сказал молодой человек, - я пришлю тебе розы, по одной розе на каждый год твоей жизни.
В тот же вечер он отправился к флористу. Зная, что девушке исполнялось двадцать два года, он заплатил за двадцать две розы и попросил флориста отправить их девушке на следующий день.
Флорист очень хорошо знал этого молодого человека, так как тот часто покупал цветы в его магазине. Когда молодой человек вышел из магазина, флорист подумал: «Этот молодой человек — очень хороший клиент. Думаю, моя цена была слишком высока. Пошлю-ка я еще десять роз».
Так он и сделал. На следующее утро девушке было отправлено тридцать две розы. Когда молодой человек пришел к ней, она не захотела разговаривать с ним. И он так никогда и не узнал, почему она так рассердилась на него.
