"Are we changing plans? Do we even need ice cream with all this?"

((Ha! I actually found it.))
***NEW DAY***
*Rochester escorted Shadi inside. It was comforting in a way, like coming home. The smell of the sugar and chocolate warmed his heart. He urged her forward.*
"So what is it today, darling? Still say one of everything?"

*Shadi's eyes took in the familiar scene. This had been practically their first outing. She looked up at him, slightly pouty.*
"I'm greedy, aren't I?"

*Rochester let out a good-natured laugh.*
"Greedy? I was thinking...overeager, but yes, I guess you could call it that too..."
*He smiled and glanced at the glass counter display.*
"So what are you waiting for, darling? Tell the nice man what you want."

*Years of privation did not lose their hold quickly. Shadi refrained from choosing everything, but made a goodly selection.
She'd worked up an appetite, after all.*
"I hope you won't have to carry me home," *she said.*

*Rochester shrugged nonchalantly, his eyes wandering as he stirred his hot chocolate the man offered.*
"That's what the footman is for."
*He tried to maintain a serious demeanor, but it cracked quickly.*

*Shadi wrinkled her nose at him and then smiled.
And then she dug in. Chocolate was good. She tried to be neat, though, and not get it all over her. She wasn't a child, after all.*
"Want some?"

"I just wanna watch you go, Baby. Darling, you go right ahead. There's time enough for the next round."
*Rochester smiled, settling into his chair. Things were better, getting back to almost normal...*

*Shadi smiled at him and ate her chocolate, wondering how she would make things up to him.*

**NEW DAY**
*Shadi held the door for Pina, smiling with the memory of her first--and subsequent--visits here. She had pocket money, too, so it wasn't a fruitless journey.*
"We can have anything we want."

"Oh, God, I haven't been here in years," *Pina said, looking around.*
"Seems a lot smaller and less mind-bogglingly amazing. Still, chocolate."

"Yeah," *Shadi sighed.* "I don't seem to ever eat enough of it."
*She motioned towards the counter and tripped up to it herself, ordering a modest assortment. Well, in her terms.*

*A little intimidated by the selection, Pina stopped herself from ordering one of everything and instead just ordered a few. Less than Shadi, did, anyway.
Pina selected a table and carried her food over to it.*
"So, do you know how your dad knows mine?"

*Shadi frowned in thought.*
"He doesn't really talk about it," *she said.* "They knew each other in Persia, and then my dad followed yours here, and practically stalked him in the Opera house. But I just know that from talk about the place. Nadir gets this really funny look on his face if anyone mentions Erik."
