After changing out of my school clothes into a teal sweater shirt and yoga pants. I pulled my hair into a messy bun and pulled on a pair of teal converse.Mal mixed the cookie batter, but it looked like she would pass out from exhaustion so I took it from her. Mal looked in the spell book, "Ok is say's we still need one tear." She said,
"And none of us have shed a tear in our lives." I added.
"Let's just chop up some onions." Carlos suggested and held out an onion from the bowl beside him,
"No! It say's we need one tear of human sadness." I explained, "And this love potion gets the best reviews so we need to follow it to a T."
"A tear's a tear." Jay sighed,
"That's not true Jay." Evie cut in, placing a bag of sugar on the counter. "Both have antibodies and enzymes but an emotional tear has more protein-based hormones then a reflux tear." Evie finished,
"Listen to you." Mal complemented, sprinkling some sugar into the batter. Jay leaned back onto the counter.
"I new that." He said,
"Did not." Carlos argued, slapping his arm lightly,
"Yeah I did." The door then opened and Lonnie burst in.
"There you are Sophia! I was looking for you!" Lonnie exclaimed as Mal quickly covered the spellbook with a cloth. "You know all the girls want you to do their hair!" Lonnie said. She peered into the mixing bowl. "Midnight snack huh? Whatcha guys making?"
"Nothing special just cookies." Mal said and shrugged. Lonnie then took her finger, put it in the batter and scooped some up. Lonnie put her finger to her mouth and licked it clean,
"No wait!" We exclaimed.
"What? I'm not going to double dip."
"Feel anything?" Evie asked,
"Yeah like it's missing something?" I questioned as I looked at her, trying to see if the potion worked on her. If it did she would tell and our plan would be ruined. Jay walked up to Lonnie and flashed her a smile,
"Hey there." Lonnie stared at him blankly,
"Could use some chips." She decided after a pause, walking over to the fridge. Mal, Evie Carlos and I sighed loudly while Jay looked hurt, going back to his original position,
"And those are?" I asked, mixing the batter again,
"Chocolate chips." Lonnie closed the fridge, "Just the most important food group." She set down a bowl filled with little brown things. She sprinkled some into the batter and popped one into her mouth. "Wait. Didn't your mums ever make you guys chocolate chip cookies?" We stared at her like she was speaking a completely different language, I stopped mixing, "Like, when you're feeling sad, and there fresh out of the oven with a big old glass of milk and she makes you laugh and puts everything into perspective and..." She trailed off, looking at us who were looking at her with sad looks. "Why are you all looking at me like that?"
"It's just different where were from." I told her, resuming my mixing. Lonnie looked at all of us,
"Yeah I know, I just thought that even villains love there kids..." She trailed off again, I had tears welling up in my eyes. Love? I know what it means but I have never felt it before. One tear spilled over, going down my cheek. Lonnie touched Mal's hand as if to comfort her. "How awful." My tear dropped into the batter. Mal noticed,
"Yeah, well big bummer..." I paid no attention to what she was saying to Lonnie.
"You Ok Soph?" Evie asked, putting her hand on my shoulder. I quickly wiped my face and took a shuddering breath, mixing the tear into the batter.
