Think a Little Sugar

"Muhaha! Your life is mine!" Miko laughed wickedly as she cracked the egg into a silver bowl, watching as the yolk sunk with a loud "plop" into the batter.
Sierra couldn't help but laugh as she stirred the mixture in the second bowl. "You're so dramatic, Miko. Stop playing around and keep stirring the batter. These cake pops aren't going to bake themselves, you know?" she said with an amused smile.
Miko rolled her eyes, nose wrinkling. "Buzzkill. I'm not used to all this baking, so I've gotta make it exciting somehow." She began to stir the yolk into the batter, blending the ingredients together.
Sierra walked up to Miko, standing beside her as she set her own bowl of ready batter on the kitchen island. "This is already exciting: you and me working together, making cake pops for the school bake sale? Who knows, we could win something." Sierra replied.
That piqued Miko's interest.
"Hey, you're right, we could win something!" Miko spoke excitedly. "Maybe concert tickets, new shoes, ooh, oooh, or a hoverboard?"
Sierra laughed out loud. "I guess we'll just have to make these cake pops, and as many as we can."
"Then what are we waiting for?" Miko proclaimed. "Let's get baking!"
Sierra nodded. "Now you're talking." With that said, she leaned in and gave Miko a peck on the cheek, who let out a small giggle before they got right back to work.
