Chapter 21: Fake Or Real?
Arthur consoled himself but deep in his heart he knew Talia didn’t even notice him there and he wondered what kind of tantrum she’ll throw once she gets up.
But I must stay with her tonight!
In his deep contemplation, he looked at the windowsill and that’s when he noticed the potted plant with a beautiful white lily flower. With the blinds of the window in dark green colour merging with the colour of the big oblong leaves and a black pot, he didn’t notice it till then.
The spotlessly clean pot and beautiful leaves with no browning and the perfect white flower made him conclude that it is fake.
Also, like his Iris could keep anything alive and this healthy! She needs a horde of people to take care of her and she takes care of nothing!
He held a leaf with his fingers and oddly it felt natural.
’Has technology so developed they are making fake plants to feel like real ones?’
He smelled something pleasant and he bent and it seemed like it was the flower.
They make the flowers fragrant too?
Arthur was astonished by the care went to create such a masterpiece and he didn’t even doubt that plant could be real.
If it was real, it would be dead!
