Sweets and pastries are for the weak.

Or at least that's what Kozmotis Pitchiner always said to his daughter, little Seraphine, since the day he found out that she had a giant sweet tooth.

But his words had little to no effect on her. So there he stood in line, waiting to enter the little bakery shop. Why was this place so crowded? He felt a tug at one of his coat sleeves.

"Dad! Dad! Look!", His daughter pressed her nose against the shop window. "I want that one, over there! The one with the little bunny and all that snow-like icing!"

Kozmotis took a peek through the glass. The cake his daughter was asking for stood on the top shelf of one of the display cabinets. He could see that it was decorated with the skill of an artist and was the biggest one of the lot. It had a bunny, white as snow, looking up at a full moon in a sky full of silvery sugar-beaded stars.

He snorted.

"Tell me why, darling, are you so anxious for something as ordinary as... cake?" He almost spat the word out. He really wasn't fond of sweets, much less cakes. But he had been unable to say a simple no to his beloved daughter. The girl had pleaded for a birthday party for so long, that he just had to agree to one.

And so there he was waiting in that damned line to not only buy a cake, but the complete pastry and snack service the little bakery had to offer.

"It's not just any cake!", she replied while tugging him into the shop as the line continued to move. "We ate cake from here at Katherine's last birthday party and it was delicious! Katherine and Nightlight both say this place makes the best cakes in the entire world!"

Kozmotis sighed. "So here I am, dropping my entire schedule for one."

Seraphine pouted and crossed her arms. "You said I could have a birthday party with cake, friends and everything. And you almost never drop your work for me..."

Feeling a pang of guilt in his heart, he took the little child in his arms and lifted her off the ground to give her a kiss on the forehead.

"I'm sorry, darling. You know I can't just drop work like that." He noticed that one of the employees was available. "Now let's go buy those
cake and pastries for your party, alright?"

The bright smile on his daughter's face lit up his mood.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!", She put her arms around his neck and
hugged him hard. "I'm sure you will like THIS cake!"

He tried hard not to roll his eyes and instead hugged her harder.

"Just this once, for you, my flower."
