Hello, Mr. Gardener.

- And you don't get sick.

- Tell me what you think of the recipe presented above.

- Hm... I think I would like to treat you to this salad, Lady Cilantra.

- Do you think it's safe?

- Oh, don't worry, I'm a mature man and I'm quite able to take appropriate measures.

- Hmm... but aren't you confused by the Dubovick's fruits indicated in the composition?

- Ripe Dubovick's fruits, please note. But we will return to this issue later. I am much more confused by the fact that they are mentioned in small print at the very end of the recipe.

- What do you mean by that?

- Just what I've already said. Without them, the Paradise Delight salad will turn into just a salad, and the evening is unlikely to be romantic, and even more so, unforgettable.

- Probably, it's all about the unique taste of these fruits... To be more precise in their properties, hehe!

- Oh yes, I remember, you specifically noted that the fruits for the salad must certainly be ripe. Why?

- Oh, the thing is that Dubovick's fruits contain an extremely mysterious and very strong poison.

- Ah! Exactly. One small piece of an immature Dubovick's fruit is the victim... the patient. So enough for the patient to plung into a death-like state, exactly until the Dubovick's fruit fruit ripens inside his body.

- And what happens then?

- Oh, everything is the same as what would happen if she consumed a ripe Dubovick's fruit fruit, with the only difference that due to the low dose, the effect will not be so long-lasting.

- What effect are you talking about all the time, Mr. Gardener?

- Hmm... it seems to me that the Dubovick's fruit fruit, which I happened to have with me by chance, has already fully ripened. Would you like a salad, darling?
