Simple Present Tense of verbs:

• A verb is said to be in present or simple present tense when it is performed regularly and is happening in the present moment.
• Here, the verb 'want' will be used in the correct simple present tense form.
• This is hinted at by the verb 'ask' which is again in its present tense form.
• So a present tense form of a verb will either be a simple verb in present form or have 's'/'es' in its end.
• If the subject would have been plural as 'they' then the verb 'want' itself would be the present tense form.
• However here the subject is put and used as a singular noun and pronoun. So an 's' will be added to the verb 'want' for simple present tense form.
