Hannah Collins looked at the supermarket signs and made her way to the snack aisle. Gazing at the wide array of chip flavors, she glanced down at Elliana Lyle, who was sitting in the cart like a queen, and asked, "Want some chips?"
"Uh..." Elliana was about to say yes, but then remembered that Norman Bennett forbade her from eating chips. So, full of reluctance, she stared at the shelves and said something completely against her heart, "I don't eat them."
Elliana's decisive refusal made Hannah somewhat curious, and she chuckled, "What's this? Don't kids love these?"
"Who says kids love chips? I don't like them. No, I'm not a kid!" Elliana raised her head and gave Hannah a fierce look.
"Should I go then?"
"Go ahead!"
Hannah lowered her gaze, noticing Elliana swallowing as she looked at the bags of chips nearby, yet pretending not to want them. Amused, she said with a smile, "It's no big deal to have some occasionally."
