As a young girl Sharon was the cutest of all the girls. We had a club we called it the Four Aces. Sharon, Cheryl, Valerie and Rhonda. Every day when we got to school the whole school had to freeze but us. We got a chocolate treat. We performed a routine for the entire school and then the day bell run. We had a secret and it was mama home made chocolate cake. Once we would take a bit we got an extra energy that no one else had. So for Sharon's birthday Mama let Rhonda bring her chocolate cake so we could all eat. But what happened that night scared us all. After we ate the cake we were trying to sleep, and it seemed some boys kept coming to our window. Well in the morning we found out the boys never were really there. Once we ate the cake were up most of the night dancing and laughing. One day at school it seemed like a normal day. Rhonda snuck to restroom ate some cake and came back to class. It was not a normal day they told her she was gifted and awarded a certificate for reading the most books in the school. Her parents held her back the fees were high. So she planned her own party when she turned 11. It was a really nice party until the cake arrived. Her parent ordered her a large cake and it was chocolate of course and her picture was on top of the cake. It was beautiful. Once she started eating the chocolate cake she was getting weird. Her mom came home and sent all the guest home. Rhonda was so embarrassed she did not have another party for many years. Rhonda started to wonder why was chocolate cake so different for her. It was because her grandmother choked on chocolate cake and died suddenly. The problems showed up and really hit the fan when Rhonda decided to get married. For awhile she avoided cake all together. But at her bridal shower which her Sister gave she ordered the largest cake she could find and had a stripper jump out. The cake was chocolate and so was the man. Rhonda got very embarrassed by the shower. Her biggest fear really was to die like her grandmother did, eating a piece of chocolate cake. The Four Aces her childhood team stayed with her all the way. She was friend with them when her grandma died unexpectedly. After visiting the grave of her grandmother one day she said it was probably a heart attack no one dies from eating cake. As she sat at her grandmother grave an Angel appeared. She was told do not eat anymore chocolate cake made by your mom, be careful. Well her mom was now up in age and while her mom was sleep she looked around. She notice more pills than usual and some unusual cleaning supplies. Rhonda said Mom I am adult now would you mind showing me Grandmas death certificate. Mom felt that request was rather odd. Next we see Rhonda sorting through some of her mother paperwork and fines that death certificate. To her dismay it reads said dead due to choking on chocolate cake. Rhonda refrained from eating chocolate cake the rest of her days. To this day she wonders was something in that cake that killed her grandma. Who chokes on a piece of chocolate cake. Rhonda decided to refrain just in case maybe the cake was laced. Unknown what was put in the dough but she decided to let it go. Rhonda lived happily ever after. Grandma died when she choked on a piece of chocolate cake. What a fate.
