Abigail and Jasper left the restaurant and decided to walk to the ice cream shop that was close by.
It was the same parlor where Abigail and Elsa used to come often. The pistachio ice cream there was quite good, and Abigail liked to eat it very much. Unfortunately, she was not allowed to eat ice cream often because of her health issues.
Her condition had improved now, and she was eager to enjoy her favorite dessert. So, she couldn't say no when Jasper invited her to join him for ice cream.
They walked silently beside each other.
Jasper was ecstatic. This silence seemed so peaceful, and it was possible because Abigail was with him. Otherwise, the silence left him feeling lonely.
He caught a glimpse of her and noticed a faint smile on her face. Her eyes were filled with glee.
He was quite familiar with it. He remembered how excited she used to get whenever an ice cream truck passed through their neighborhood.
