The candy

Year after year the young girl looked forward to the day she will be able to eat this huge delicious looking piece of candy. It was a piece that only a select few could have, her younger brother wouldn't be able to have it when she did, her parents were way too old and had already enjoyed their piece. She dreamed of the candy and counted down to when she could enjoy it. But as the days, weeks, months, and years passed the candy suddenly look like too much too handle. Like an unwanted dessert after a huge meal.Yet at the same time, she was curious as to how it tasted and how much she would like it. Now the day has come where she HAS to eat this piece of candy. So now the candy seems more of like a chore, an obligation, and this girl who is no longer young is very scared of this candy. Shes worried it will give her a stomach ache or that it contains too much sugar or not enough. But at the end of the day she knows she must taste this candy and hope that it was what she imagined as a young girl.
