Lollipops (Sweet Shop, part 1)

This image, shared by an article about high-end sweets, really caught my eye. It brought on this scene...

She stepped through the door and her eyes went wide. She had never seen so many bright colors in one place. It made her deliriously happy. She couldn't remember the last time she had eaten a lollipop. Was it when she was a child? 

She stepped closer to the massive display of the hard candy confections. They came in all shapes and sizes, from tiny spheres to giant discs. She ran her fingers along the rainbow swirls of the largest one. She picked it up and twirled it like an umbrella. She danced up to the register like Gene Kelly. 

Her diet could wait.

Have a sweet day!

I have continued this little story. Read part 2 of Sweet Shop here.
