Damages of the past

"What were you thinking about flavors? The main ingredient could be chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, or caramel?" Philip asked me.

"As flavors? Maybe can you mix vanilla and chocolate? I guess it could be a good match." I replied forcing a smile.

Although all I wanted to do was rest and contemplate the loneliness I was in since Cameron left. Or mentally count the hours spent already without him -for how silly it may sound- I forced myself to skim through the projects of the cakes. The first one had two levels and was a round cake, decorated with flowers cascading all over the first layer whereas on the second higher one there were two little statues. I found that very sweet and minimal but way too simple for us.

The second draw represented a huger cake, way more detailed, oval-shaped, and with roses coloring with different shades of pink. Layers were stacked off-centered allowing the roses to fall to the side as water streamed down the current.
