I walked up to the counter, and said,”I’d like a banana walnut muffin,”.The short, blondegirl behind the counter just looked at me blankly in her perfunctory state, and said,

“Sorry, we don’t have any. We’re all out. How about a blueberry?”.

I suddenly remembered that you can’t always get what you want in life. Ever since my dad died in that big accident on the bridge, things were different.

All I needed was that muffin to remind myself of how my dad loved me so much.
