Two men are in love with a woman

Two men are in love with a woman


One of the men is a doctor, and the other a deaf man


Every day, the doctor brings the woman

a flower as a sign of his affection.


Every day, the deaf man brings

the woman an apple.


She asks him, “Why do you bring me an apple?

A flower I understand, but what is the purpose of the apple?”


The deaf man replies, “WHAT?”
