I lay awake in my bed in my owners' room. The boys are sound asleep, as is Candace. I believe Linda and Lawrence are as well.
Oh, this is so wrong, and yet, I feel strange……….
Gah! What are you thinking, Perry?! She's a human! You're a platypus! I mean, what……. BAD IMAGES!!! BAD IMAGES!!!! VEEEEEEEEEEEERY BAD IMAGES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I apparently just scarred my conscience for life….. Oy, I need some food…
I sneak downstairs and open the cabinet containing my platypus food. I open it, and start eating.
Sitting there, I think about how much I like this stuff and I have a small revelation.
Maybe if I got Isabella a gift, I would feel better. Yeah! That's what I'll do! I'll get her something! But what?.......

Morning had come, but I wasn't going to work today. Instead, I was out near the pond.
What do I get her? It has to be something good. But what? I looked over into the field, and I saw it. The one gift that I could give her that I wouldn't have to buy, making my owners suspicious.

Later…
I sat with my owners in the backyard, waiting for Isabella to come over. Soon, she finally did. My heart felt slightly weaker when she did.
It took quite a while until she stopped talking to Phineas and Ferb, but it eventually happened.
I stood on my four legs, and picked up the gift from under me with my bill. I walked over to Isabella, chattered to get her attention, and laid the large flower on the ground in front of her.
She bent over and picked it up. She smiled and picked me up and hugged me. I rubbed my head against hers.
That wasn't as bad as I thought….
