Chuckles — Can I Have Your Chocolate Please?

During the intermission of High School Musical The Ice Tour on 12 July 2008, I went to Starbucks to buy their Signature Hot Chocolate. Knowing that its 50% chocolate content would probably attract my nephew and niece, I ordered the grande size.

True enough, when my niece learned that I had hot chocolate, she asked if she could sip some of the beverage. I gladly shared the chocolate drink after it had cooled down after some time. Then, I asked my nephew if he would like some too.

After one gulp, he turned to me and asked, “If you don’t like your chocolate, can I have it, please?”

Trying to hide my amusement at the roundabout way of asking if he could have the Signature Hot Chocolate, I agreed, and then threw back at him what he just said (since there’s a possibility that he might not be able to finish the whole drink), “If you don’t like your chocolate, can I have it, please?”

My nephew gave a little nod to seal the deal.

After a while, he thrust the Starbucks cup towards me. I took the white cup and shook it gently. I estimated about a centimeter of liquid lining the bottom of the cup. Yes, he did leave me enough chocolate drink for one small sip. Hehe…
