In The Eyes of the Beholder

Aliya and Kaia helped Shia in pouring the decorating the cups with marshmallows and whip cream as well as sprinkles and other things while Carlotta and Dor work on taking the cookies out of the oven and placing them on the plates. Ellie is helping them.

"There we go," Shia said, properly staking up the marshmallows in the cup while Kaia just placed them in there and went on directly to the whipped cream.

Aliya is just stuffing the cup with marshmallows at this point. Shia gasped as she saw her cup and gently took the bag of marshmallows away from her.

"I think that is enough of that, Aliya." She said, taking the can of whipped cream from Kaia and giving it to her. "How about you add whipped cream now?"

"Ok." She said, taking the can from her and starting by making a mess on the table.

Shia signalled to Kaia and signed at her, "Make sure no one else gets this cup except for Aliya."
