The narrator tells us that he's here to tell his mom that he loves her. He tells her that he brought her a flower that reminds her of her own childhood. He also tells her about the day that he fell in love with Fred. He says that when he falls in love, his heart beats so fast that he can't keep track of the beats. He wants her to know that it's okay to love someone you like, even if that person is someone you don't like.
