With that thought, he took the candy.
Ruby Rowland's eyes lit up. She flashed an incredibly satisfied, obedient smile. "You eat it, Big Brother." The snowy Little Mochi was absolutely overjoyed.
Vince Russell couldn't understand it. He had merely accepted a piece of candy. Why was this little creature acting like she had just stumbled upon millions of credits?
"She's so stupid," he thought. Tossing the candy into his mouth, he realized he couldn't remember the last time he had eaten such a trifling thing. It was cloyingly sweet!
"Since you gave me this candy, tell me what you want," he said.
Poking her little fingers together, Ruby actually made a request. "Big Brother, could I have a little table?"
The corners of Vince's mouth twitched upward. "Sure."
