The atmosphere was tense as her friends stared at her expectantly, waiting to hear her verdict. She examined the pale green porcelain plate, but where there were once chocolate chip cookies, now remained only crumbs. Carefully she pressed her finger against each crumb and carried it to her mouth. Now the plate was completely empty. How wonderful those cookies had been! How quickly they had disappeared! She turned to the others and said, "The cookies are all gone and I don't know when we will get any more." And they all burst into tears and wouldn't stop crying.
