Anne returned home and met Mary who was busy stitching badges to a cloth, smiling. She dropped the groceries she purchased, at the table, and enquired about her date.
“Simply splendid. Less I forget, God sent a particular Gabriel to tell me that I would mother a child soon.”
“Are you trying to communicate something? I hope nothing happened over there?” Anne asked, pointing at her crotch.
“Mom!” she made a face, “Well nothing happened, at least not today,” she smiled, carefully folded the cloth she was sewing, and headed for her room. On entering her room, she opened her window, sat on a nearby chair and resumed her sewing.
“Send some roses to Bethlehem, a virgin has found a love in a carpenter...”
“I don't have rose, can I send some cabbages instead?” Cabbage asked, waving towards her direction.
Mary smiled, looked afar and saw her betrothed coming. “Please, go away,”
“You closed early, what happened?”
“I couldn't concentrate, my lips were filled with songs, and my hands beats. So I decided, I go home and enjoy the rest of the day.” He said, “Before I forget, who was that guy?”
She was blank for a moment “Oh, he's cabbage. He’s a friend,”
"Okay,"
