My stomach rumbled in anticipation, already craving the sweetness.
"Good evening, welcome to Sweet Dreams Ice Cream Parlor!" the cashier greeted me with a friendly smile. His eyes sparkled with warmth as he gestured to the menu board. "What can I get for you today?"

"Excellent choice!" the cashier exclaimed, reaching for a waffle cone. But before he could scoop the ice cream, he paused, a curious expression crossing his face.
