Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The proposed message changes when the order moves from a large bouquet to a small one. Asking forgiveness becomes asking the recipient to stop dwelling on the problem. The comic shift makes the flowers carry a different demand, without revealing how the speaker actually feels.
