Story
There comes a time when you must rise up from your seat and make a beeline for the exit. Missing such a chance could mean getting caught in strange circumstances. And that is exactly what happened to one Cookie once.
Herb Cookie heard of Sparkling Cookie’s latest blend of herb tea. As the afternoon was pleasant and sunny, he made his way to Sparkling Cookie’s establishment, looking very forward to a cup of tea. That is, until Vampire Cookie slumped in and put a hand on Herb Cookie’s shoulder.
“Isn’t it so weird that everyone is always so busy with this, so busy with that?”
It sounded as if Vampire Cookie had just woken up from an extended nap. A faint aroma of grape juice followed each movement as he struggled to prop himself up against Herb Cookie’s shoulder. Perhaps Vampire Cookie took Herb Cookie’s flustered silence as a silent nod of acceptance to continue his rambling. As soon as Herb Cookie saw an opening to make his exit, Vampire Cookie cut in once more.
“Listen to me... Think about it. Why can’t everyone just relax and enjoy life?”
If this moment doesn’t count as déjà vu, nothing would. Herb Cookie grew more and more flustered with the awkward situation that had pounced upon him. And yet, without another warning, the doors opened, and in walked Mint Choco Cookie. The newcomer plopped right down into the seat next to him and, without even ordering, a glass of juice was laid out ony to the counter.
“I am looking for something new for my taste buds. Do you have any recommendations?”
Along with Vampire Cookie’s whining, this sudden question flustered Herb Cookie beyond all measure. Oh, what to do, what to do! Such a calm and smooth smile, waiting for an answer. Dare a Cookie blurt out they were leaving in front of such a charming smile?
Believe it or not, Vampire Cookie came to the “rescue” with a rather obvious recommendation. Grape juice. Alas, this impromptu recommendation was nothing close to a rescue and only caused a further stir in the conversation.
And Sparkling Cookie would not be himself if he did not join the conversation, especially one on refreshments with two of his regulars. The debate now flowed towards Sparkling Cookie’s newly crafted concoction of sparkling juices. Somehow, the suave bartender convinced all three Cookies present to return one day for a tasting. The promise was made so swiftly with no chance to interject. But one last effort did manage to succeed: they would meet earlier in the day.
