Theodore's Regret
Theodore’s arm slipped around my waist, and for a moment, I let myself lean into him, savoring the sense of togetherness.
After the carousel, we wandered over to a cotton candy stand. Asher’s eyes widened as he watched the vendor spin the sugary treat into a fluffy pink cloud.
“I want the biggest one!” he exclaimed, bouncing on his toes.
Theodore chuckled and handed the vendor a few bills. “One giant cotton candy, please.”
The vendor handed over a stick with a massive puff of cotton candy that was nearly as big as Asher’s head. Asher’s eyes lit up as he took it, and he immediately tore off a piece, shoving it into his mouth with a delighted giggle.
