A continuous bell ringing got Iysa out of bed in the morning. She was still half asleep as she opened the door. There she saw Kris, standing with a bouquet of pink roses, a box of chocolates and a cake.

“What are you doing here Kris?”  Iysa asked in astonishment.

“You should be at home resting! Who let you leave your bed?” Iysa asked in an angry voice.

“Happy Birthday Babe!” Kris said rather smilingly.

“You didn’t like me coming? Today's your very special day babe.” his voice turning low now.

Noticing that Iysa made all his efforts almost worthless immediately apologized,

“Ohh, so sorry baby. Come on in. I just got scared seeing you come all the way here alone.”

They both went in. Kris opened up the cake box. It was Iysa's favourite Belgium dark chocolate. She smiled looking at it. The cake had an image of both of them from the time when they had gone for a holiday trip. It was one of their best outings and their last one as well.
