As she drove up to the house, she noticed the flower boxes in the front of the house overflowing with petunias. She sighed, they always were his favorite, which seemed silly for someone with such a green thumb that could grow anything, he always grew petunias.
She parked the car and noticed hugh planters of even more petunias on the front porch, and as she got out and walked to the back door, hanging baskets with even more petunias. It almost seemed like a message from the grave to her, but what?
She unlocked the door and went into the familiar, but now silent house, and there to her surprise, was a bowl of petunias on the table.
