"That's your plan?" Trish asks me, her eyebrows raised high. I nod silently, waiting nervously for her opinion. She immediately jumps up and down, holding out her palm for me to high five.

"That's the best thing I've ever heard!" Trish squeals, our palms slapping against each other. I grin from ear to ear, pleased that she thinks it's a good plan.

Hazelnut hot chocolate with cream, sprinkles and a heap of chocolate shavings.

Nothing more, nothing less.

"Yes, we." Trish replies, rolling her eyes dramatically. I lift my brow high at her, placing my cup back down.
