Title: Trying Something New
Evelyn gawked at the enchanted ice cream cone in her hand.
She wanted to try something new after her breakup. But Evelyn regretted asking her sister for help.
The cream was neon green with questionable chunks mixed in. The most concerning part was that the dessert was on fire… but wasn’t melting.
Memories of her ex calling her “boring” spurred her into action. She closed her eyes and took a giant lick of the strange yet incredibly delicious substance. Her eyes widened in surprise, and her sister laughed.
Evelyn smiled, believing this was a great start to a new beginning.
