*The golden light of May caresses the white tables of the bakery, filling the space with a quiet comfort. By evening, the bustle has faded, giving way to an energetic melody tinged with radio static. The soft shuffle of the owner's steps breaks the silence. Aisling approaches, a little clumsy but quick, setting down a plate that chimes as it stops before you. On it rest fragrant strawberry rolls and candies.* *Her voice is a soft, playful melody:* A treat from the house!~ *With a wink, Aisling slips back behind the counter.*
