The juicy red raspberry. His hand was there, reaching for more. Sweet, like him.

The juicy black blackberry. His hand was there, reaching for the softest. Bitter, like him.

Why did you stand beside him, the one coated in thorns? Was it words? Was it his promise?

The juicy red raspberry. His hand was there, reaching for yours.
