As I opened the box, in all honesty I just hoped that the piece would actually be there but I never expected to find two other objects along with it. I noticed the red and purple shapes and my eyes began to glow like a child's on Christmas morning. They were Starburst, the world's most delicious candy. And more than that, one of them was the most wonderful of the flavors, red. Oh red Starburst how I love thee with all my heart and soul.
I swept my hand into the box and carefully picked each up individually in an overly careful manner, just hoping that they were real and not a figment of my imagination. Even as I touched their smooth wrappers i was not completely sure so i sniffed and then laid them upon my dresser and looked at them from their own level. They seemed to truly be real.
I found myself immediately overcome with more joy than I had felt in days. I whisked them both up and hopped onto my bed and slowly unwrapped the purple one taking a quick whiff of the candy. Oh purple, though thou art not as great as thine brethren, Red The Magnificent, thou art quite wondrous thineself. Gently popping it into my mouth I allowed it to slowly soften before i bit down. Like in the past the Starburst seemed to bring forth an even more wonderful flavor once it was broken apart and mixed with saliva.
The firstt candy was quickly gone after this point and before sorrow could set in at my small moment of joy soon past, I remembered that I had a red one sitting on my chest. Unable to give it the attention it deserved for I was truly a beast of desire at that point. I was truly a cold and merciless predator to the red unlike a connoisseur with the purple. I grabbed it quickly and tore off the wrapping with both
I now feel my hunger growing, the two did not satiate my need, rather the opposite. The two small candies have fueled a horrible desire. I want more. I need more. I shall stop at nothing to get more Starburst. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but soon I shall be satiated. I promise you loyal readers, I shall come back from that hunt succesfully.
This post made me smile. A lot. I love the picture of you eyeballing the candy...that's so perfect.
