Venus hummed while having an unsure expression.
"We can do Mickey. You like Minnie Mouse, right?" She paused to allow the woman to agree silently. "And since you're having a girl, it'll be perfect. We could have pink and white streamers' polka dot plates, and the helpers could dress up according to the theme.

She shrugged, agreeing to the statement, but still carried apprehension.
Xia noticed this and decided to move on with a sigh. "Ok, how about Winnie the Pooh? He's adorable. We can have big stuffed bears everywhere, and have cookies as a dessert option resembling the different animals. You like cookies, desserts, and animals, right?"
The stressed woman released a sigh once again after receiving the same sheepish rejection.

As Venus opened her mouth to answer, a nasal voice interfered. "Milky ways."
