"4 blocks of butter, 1 kilogram of sugar, a few tablespoons of vanilla extract, and orange skin shredding. Is that all?" Medic asked. "That's all, doc!" Engineer answered. While I was at school, the mercenaries made me and themselves cupcakes, by the secret wish of Soldier. I never knew Solly had a soft spot hidden deep in him.
"Yeah that's all doc!" Engineer said. "Very well. Let's begin." Medic muttered. It was a big strain for the mercs to perfectly do all the steps in the cook book, especially Heavy. "Rrrgh. Dis leetle cup won't stay still!" Heavy complained. Shaking hands of Heavy's made the work all hard. Good thing Kind Medic is there to help him. In the other hand, Engineer and Soldier. "No, this is how you do it." Engineer said. "NO! This is how." Soldier protested. "Ok, let's try doing this method." Engineer said. "If this fails. I'll have to smack your face." Soldier said. "Alright! If this fails, you smack my face. If it does not, I'll have to blow up your face." Engineer said. They tried the method. It worked first then it did not. "Tie." They both said.
My biggest fear of when I heard that story is that I kept on wondering if a fire happened. It was good to hear that they tried avoiding a fire. Though one almost happened, it was when they put the cupcakes in the oven.
"OH SHIT. MEDIC PUT OUT THE OVEN!" Engineer said. "GOODNESS! THE CUPCAKES." Medic shouted. "Panic". The perfect word for that situation. "DOKTOR! DA CUPCAKES!" Heavy shouted. "THERE IS NO HOPE OF A PERFECT CUPCAKE THAT COMES OUT THERE IF YOU DON'T GET TO IT!" Soldier shouted. "THERE REALLY IS NO HOPE FOR A PERFECT CUPCAKE, JUST LOOK AT IT." Medic exclaimed. Burnt first and second batch of cupcakes. "Oh no. This is bad." Engineer said. "THERE'S ONLY 2 AND A HALF HOURS BEFORE ALEX'S CLASSES ARE DONE. LET'S GET TO THE LAST 2 BATCHES, BUT LET'S DO IT QUICK." Soldier ordered.
So during my Literature classes, they made cupcakes in a panic. But in the end, I came home just when the last batch came out fresh from the oven. "Umm..." Heavy muttered. Soldier hid in humiliation. "Wow are these cupcakes?" I asked. My eyes were sparkling at the most perfect cupcakes ever made in my life. "We were just about to ice them." Engineer said. I lifted my glasses in confusion. "I don't get it who are you making for?" I asked. "Well... ummm...it's actually for..you." Medic stuttered. I was surprised in months. "..For.. me? From who?" I asked. Heavy just pointed at where Soldier was hiding. I came near to him. I heard sobs from him. I laid my hand on his shoulders. "Thanks. I appreciate it." I softly said. He suddenly hugged me. "You're welcome, private." He said. "C'mon let's put some sweet paint on it." I told him. We had a great time doing that cupcakes. When we ate it, it tasted sweet as the sweetest thing on Earth. And I really adore that memory up to now. But the next few parts really broke my heart. I suggest you ready yourself, the roller coaster of feels has just opened and its tickets is available already.
