Andres was eager to surprise you with the apples you had been craving for days.

"Here's the apple you've been craving," he said, his voice muffled as he covered his mouth with his hand. Your brows furrowed, and you asked him to remove his hand.

"I was stung by a bee while picking apples," he explained, his voice slightly slurred due to the swelling.
