Temptation

Temptation


     You stare at the dessert...It's waiting for you in a round porcelain bowl. Days before, your doctor told you that you were forbidden to eat sweets. Oh how you yearned for the taste of sugar...How long has it been? A few weeks? But...That does not matter, for this is the moment. You must have some ice cream...After all, this IS your FAVORITE flavor too: orange and vanilla. The heat around you makes everything so much harder, so much more tempting, yet only the ice cream can relieve you. You pick it up and it is almost touching your lips; you can even feel the coldness radiating off the ice cream. DING! Great. An email from your doctor. What now! He just had to ruin the moment, huh! He tells you the astonishing news and your eyes tear up in joy: you are no longer banned from the world of sweets! In pure happiness, you finish off the ice cream quickly. The cold, yet delicious creaminess of the dairy product soothes your tongue from its prison of warmth. In a matter of a few minutes...The ice cream is done. All that was left was the drops that fell. Today must be one of the best moments of your life.
