//------------------------------// // Lemon (Sorbet) // Story: Lemon Sorbet // by Annuska //------------------------------// “I guess I could say you’re . . . sweet as pie. Hehe! Get it?” “Pfft, that was good! Wait, wait, I got one! I think you’re sweet as lemon sorbet!” At first, she giggled at hearing this – then she stopped, realising that lemons were not the sweetest of citruses, let alone fruits – and furrowed her brow. “Lemon sorbet?” “Oh, oh! It’s a dessert that’s sorta like ice cream but it’s just water, sugar, and—” “No, I know what sorbet is, Pinkie! But isn’t lemon, like, not sweet?” “Well, duh! Lemon’s super sour, but when you add sugar, it takes it down a notch! Like, you’re definitely not always sweet to other people but I’m probably more than sugary enough for the both of us so when we’re together it’s like this really great balance and you can still be you!” Sonata smiled. She liked still being her.
