Alessa sketched out her idea on the paper, then began to line it. She erased the sketch lines, then added the color and shading. Alessa took her time, of course.

Sammy drew a scene from Lady and the Tramp using a blue colored pencil. He wrote a small message inside the card and signed his name. "We still need to plan your cake, your birthday's getting closer and closer. Do you want me or a bakery to make it?"

[Boomer]

Alessa looked over to Sammy and slightly tilted her head. "Oh... right, I forgot about my birthday..." she murmured, trailing off a bit. She then cleared her throat. "What's a bakery?" she asked.

“It’s a place where they make all sorts of food, like bread, cakes, and cookies. There’s one in town I can show you today, if you’d like.” Said Sammy.

"Could we get some samples while we're there?" she asked. Alessa was always excited to try new food, especially sweets.

“Of course you can. We can also get Margaret something too and bring it to her. I can call them up and tell them you’d like a birthday cake, and then we can discuss flavors and such there.” He explained.

[Boomer]

"Okay, I like that idea." she said softly, nodding a little. She was excited to try the sweets. Alessa finished up her card not long after their talk.

Sammy gave the bakery a call and explained what he wanted. They said they could come over to the shop and plan the cake out with her. He grabbed the card and began putting his shoes on. “Are you ready to go?” He asked.

Alessa grabbed Scarlett and her card, then went to the front door. "Yes." she said, dipping her head.

Once they got to the bakery, just a ten minute drive away, Sammy explained what they wanted to the baker, a hyena around Sammy's age. The two talked for a little, and when it was time for Alessa to talk with her, she introduced herself as Marcie. The baker offered her a freshly baked vanilla cupcake, topped with green frosting that looked like grass and a small fondant bumblebee resting on a fondant flower.

"Your birthday's coming up, huh?" Marcie said in a sweet, gentle voice. It had a bit of a southern accent to it. "How old are you gonna be?"
