Thank you for coming over to help me on such short notice.
O-of course! I'm always happy to help you, Presea!
This is the third batch of cookies I made. I know this is not how they are supposed to taste, but I cannot figure out my mistake.
Hmm, let me taste one… Woah, that's a lot of ginger! I think it'll be fine if you use about half the amount. And, maybe use a little more brown sugar and butter.
I see... I assumed I needed to add a lot of ginger because they are called "gingerbread" cookies. That was my mistake.
It's an easy mistake to make. I'll help you with your next batch. Hopefully we'll get it right this time.

I believe we found the correct combination. These taste exactly like the cookies I had long ago.
That's great! S-so, u-um... Who are the cookies for, if you don't mind me asking..?
Alicia. Today is the anniversary of her death. I think I was finally able to make these cookies the way she liked them because of your assistance.
O-oh... They're for Alicia... I-I'm glad I was able to help!
I wish Alicia was here to taste them, but since she isn't, would you like to share them with me?
R-really?! You don't mind?
Not at all. It's the least I can do. I would not have gotten the recipe correct without your help.
T-thank you!
Alicia is not here. But, I am not alone. I have true friends now. Genis, thank you...
D-did you say something, Presea?
