Hazel
Level 1 -- Post 1
With everything that had been going on lately, Hazel just really needed a bit of a vacation. She may not have the funds to go on a tropical excursion, but she was taking a day off work to treat herself. Her first stop was the candy store she had noticed on her walk home the other day. It had been so long since she allowed herself the pleasure of eating anything really sugary...just this once, she could justify a sugar binge, at least in her own mind.
Eyes scanning the shelves stocked with sugary goodness, Hazel realized that she was probably going to be splurging quite a bit. She hesitated, arm already stretched out to grab a bag of assorted saltwater taffies, wondering if she should really do this. Wasn't she stronger than this? It wasn't like her to just check out of her emotions and stuff her face with candy. And yet, she was already tucking the bag of taffies under her arm and looking for something chocolaty.
Hey, everyone was allowed a few moments of weakness in their life, right?
