Paradise help
 

I am near the beginning of the game Paradise. It is time for me to go back to the garden to get the flower for the perfume, but it won't let me walk past the first two talking harem girls by the pool to get to the garden door. Does this mean I missed something earlier in the game? I don't see what though since I read the walkthrough up to that point. Does anyone out there know what I am doing wrong? Could it be a bug?

I played it a few years back, but I only remember the plot, so if its an unpicked item or something like that I dunno.
But if it is a bug then a patch should fix it.
