Dance for desert
As we settled into a comfortable rhythm around the table, the laughter and voices mingled harmoniously, creating warm ripples in the air that felt almost magical.
Between bites of delicious food, I watched as Ciara and Leora exchanged playful banter, their friendship radiating a kind of warmth that made me feel right at home.
The chaos of the demon puppy, the cuddles, and the cozy atmosphere all swirled together into a perfect blend of comfort, and I was grateful for the anchored sense of belonging I felt.
"What's the plan for dessert?" I asked, putting down my fork as I licked my lips, savoring the flavors from our meal.
"Oh, I've concocted something special," Leora replied, winking mysteriously. "But you'll have to wait until after the main event to see it. Think of it as a reward for enduring my cooking!"
