The Great Cupcake Caper
Jenny has always been rebellious. Her passion and habit of breaking rules and pushing boundaries led her into a precarious situation one afternoon.
She stood outside the local bakery and gazed hungrily at the cupcakes. She knew she shouldn’t step in- she was on a strict diet, but the temptation was too strong. She took a deep breath and marched into the bakery, determined she would have her cake and eat it too. She grabbed a box of cupcakes and was just about to sprint when she heard a voice behind her.
The baker came over, looking stern with flour all over her apron.
“What the hell do you think you are doing?" she asked angrily.
Jenny’s heart sank. She knew she was caught red handed.
“I- I’m sorry. I didn’t mean- “
“Save it little one! Snapped the baker. “I’ve seen your type before. You think you can simply waltz in here and take whatever you want?" said the baker.
Jenny’s cheeks turned red with shame.
“I swear I’ll pay for them. Let me- “
The baker cut her off again. “No way. You think money can solve all problems? Today, young lady, you’re going to learn a lesson."
After that, she took Maggie by the arm and led her to the back of the bakery, where she gave her a mop and broom.
"You're responsible for cleaning up the place and don’t even think about leaving until it's spotless,” said the baker.
Jenny sighed and got to work, wiping down the counters and sweeping up the flour. No matter how many times she was cleaning the counters and sweeping the flour, the air felt thick and heavy every time, making it difficult to breathe. But as she worked, she realized something strange was happening.
The cupcakes in the box were multiplying, growing biggerand more colorful by the minute. Jenny was amazed when she saw the cupcakes dancing and singing in the bakery. She soon became involved in the fun and was having a blast time until she was caught up in the cupcake caper.
In the end, the baker couldn't help but laugh as she watched Jenny twirl around with her newfound friends.
"You know what, kid? Maybe you're not so terrible after all?"
Jenny grinned from ear to ear as she finished her dance. "I knew cupcakes would make us feel things!"
