"Hey Allen!" Alex's voice alerted the stylist to her presence. He had been organizing his workplace before his girlfriend appeared from behind him. She was holding something at her back.
"Yes, princess?"
"I got you a birthday present," she held out a plate of green noodles. He took the plate of Genovese pasta from her with a smile.
"Thank you. This is the best gift I've gotten all day. I'll be sure to enjoy this."
She grinned at him, "I'm glad you liked it. It was hard deciding what to get."
"It's perfect. Thank you."
