Sweet Beginnings 2

Another perspective. . .

By Bobi LarsonPublished 4 years ago 3 min read

The intense heat woke me up. hot but this is my first memory, that means it must be time. I know this is a short moment in my life but I know it will be worth it. The creator will pair me with another that should compliment my flavor. I can wait for the moment we meet and I have the opportunity to fulfill my destiny.

In the distance I hear a series of beeps, followed by a rush of light and cooler air, and I am being moved around where almost at once the heat begins to dissipate. This is much better for sure. Something small pierces my top side, not overly painful but manageable.

"Ah, perfect!" I hear a soft, sweet voice. "Jack is going to love this."

After a long wait, I'm being jostled a bit - something scraping my sides lightly and then flipped over onto a grid where the cooling process continues. I feel what I can assume is excitement at the prospect of bringing such joy. I feel a drop in my excitement as I on the ones that don't make it out of the creators' fire. The ones they say get left in for too long and will never become the decadence they were intended to be.

I can feel the spring throughout my size, the dense yet moist center - wow the creator did it right. I could sense all the shaped air pockets - so small and evenly spaced. incredibly delighted this is a competent creator. My top side pressing uncomfortably into a metal grid, I took a moments to what I could. I don't have eyes per se but an awareness, and a purpose. Beautiful rich aromas swirled around me, opposite of my own smell that was rich and sweet. This will be an enjoyable existence.

some time later, I am not at all warm and the creator gingerly lifts me up and turns me over again. I could feel the pinch as the creator removed a section that was not even with the rest of me, and then begin placing me on a cool hard surface. My pairing was about to happen!

Smooth and creamy, soft texture was pushed against one of flat surfaces, and spread across the exposed area. Wow it felt like we were ' for each other!' I could tell that it had a similar flavor, sweeter perhaps but rich, and dark like me. The first layer complete, another section of me and then a second layer of the rich topping. My excitement returned as I felt myself coming together, stacking taller and layering a third section. I could feel the swift talent of the topping swooping around my sides and sealing in my springy goodness. I felt proud and tall as the creator set something bright and sweet in my center.

could hear the creator making a melodic soft sound, while the spreader applied more topping around my entirety, making sure even and beautiful. The soft smacking sound of what I presume was the creator licking some of that delicious topping.

Not long after there a loud beep and then I hear another deeper voice joining the creators soft and sweet tone.

It wasn't long and I felt the time nearing. time for me shine and do my thing, to be what the creator needed me to be. The pinching of something sharp pushed down into my center and through to the edge, twice but in different spots. A rush of air met my middle and I could feel a section separating.

"Wow" I heard the deep voice exclaim. "This is decadent! I am the luckiest man on the face of the planet!"

I felt such a rush of relief. had fulfilled my destiny, soft music played in the background and I began to drift back into darkness, the light giggle of the creator and the deeper chuckle of the other fading into the night.
