Allysa asked Lou while choosing for a donut. “I am still full of what Adem's mother cooked. I ate a lot of vegetables today. I feel like I am a herbivore” He replied. They all take doughnut except for me. I saw Lou look at me. “Have some doughnuts. They will deplete it.” He said to me so I got choco butternut.

Susan jammed her notepad into her purse along with a file folder. "Sure, I'll get dressed really quick." Lori placed her cup in the sink. "I'll stop by and help you as soon as I'm finished. Then we can go grab a light lunch. I told you about this new place downtown, Janelle's Coffee and Tasty Pastries. I want to check out the menu. Not only are there lots of specialty pastries and coffees but quiche, soups, and salads are a favorite for lunch. I need to check out the competition but also, I might strike another deal to sell the pastries in the diner. Customers will stay longer with dessert." Susan finished her toast and put her dinnerware on the counter.

Nox watched me for a beat before picking up his bagel and biting into it. We ate in silence. Goddess, the coffee cake was absolutely delicious. I couldn’t get enough of it. I subtly licked the fork every time I took a bite simply because I wanted nothing to go to waste. The donut was equally as delicious. I’d never had desserts quite this good before. “What do you think?” he asked casually. I couldn’t lie. “Delicious.” “I’m glad you enjoyed it.”

And Luca Moretti had no intention of dying anytime soon. As he stepped into the cool night air, he straightened his shoulders and set his jaw. Time to put on the mask of the charming businessman, to hide the ruthless don that lurked beneath. It was a dance he'd perfected over the years, but tonight, for reasons he couldn't quite pinpoint, it felt more suffocating than ever. Little did he know, across town, a fiery redhead was burning the midnight oil, poring over documents that would soon turn his carefully constructed world upside down. The game was about to change, and Luca Moretti had no idea what was coming for him.

I look at the food and know the calorie count is 195. "195," I mumble. "195, what?" Collin asks. "Oh, sorry. 195 calories. That's how many are in one of these medium-size donuts," I say. "You count calories too?" He asks. "Yes, it's what people with my...well, you know...it's what people like me do," I say. "Well, if you are uncomfortable eating the whole thing. Can you humor me and have five bites?" He asks. "Sure, I will eat five small bites," I say.

The pain that shoots through my leg makes it difficult to use it. Today, I just sat on the couch and stared at it beside me. Was there no more food, why does she keep giving me donuts? Back home, we fed poorly especially when my mother was being punished but no one ever gave us donuts as food. Donuts? Two small round snacks. Why is she giving me donuts! It seems to be thinning my brain - my observation skills, my alertness, my reasoning. They were all reduced.

Sandy replied, "How can we focus on work when you're like this?" Jenny carefully blew on the chicken noodle soup they had sneaked in from the cafeteria. "Renee, stop talking and eat something. We also got donuts, bagels, and muffins from the café near campus... whatever you want."Renee turned to the three of them, saying, "Thank you." Sandy hesitantly waved her hand in front of Renee's face but received glares from Dhalia and Jenny. Embarrassed, she lowered her hand.

"Mmmmm! I love you, pumpkin donut!" These were my favourite kind, pumpkin donuts, baked, not fried and dipped in caster sugar! I was absolutely in love with them and eternally thankful for Starbucks for including them in their autumn menu. I opened my eyes to see Nate watching me with amusement. "What?" "And what do I get?" he smirked.

Pox went to his desk and turned on his computer. Ember followed him and stared down at the screen of his computer. Pox opened the documents and clicked a file entitled 'DD'. Pox sat on his chair while Ember is standing behind him. Pox inhaled. "Okay, so basically, DD is a doughnut shop, which means Dunkin' Doughnut," Pox said, sounding so proud of his discovery. He looked behind and stared at Ember’s frowned face. Ember shut her eyes and open them to glare at Pox. "Are you? Are you playing with me, Pox?" Ember exhaled. “Do you think that’s the evidence? A doughnut?” Ember pointed to his screen.

But not to ruin Leo's joy, he played it off and asked, looking down at the kid, “What do you want to eat?” “Ummm... Drumstick, Chicken Little, Tender, Popcorn Nuggets, and Applesauce...” Leo said excitedly, but suddenly a hesitant look appeared on his face, “Actually, I don't want any of those things, Uncle. I will have a donut and juice.” Staring at the kid, Noah couldn't help but smile at his innocent expression, and he then turned to the cashier who was waiting patiently for him, saying, “We will be ordering Drumstick, Chicken Little, Tender, Popcorn Nuggets, and donut and Applesauce.”
