The aroma of freshly baked bread filled the bakery. Amy approached the woman behind the counter. “Jenny? Jenny Peterson? Remember the chocolate chip cookies we used to make every Saturday morning?”

Jenny paused, her brow furrowed. She looked at Amy, then back at the display case. “I’m sorry, dear. I don’t recognize you.” She smiled at the next customer in line.

Amy clenched her fists, her jaw tight. She swallowed hard, trying to keep the anger from spilling over. “The cookies with the extra chocolate chips? The ones that always burned at the bottom?”

Jenny just kept staring at the next customer in line. Amy mumbled a thank you and walked away, feeling a strange mix of emotions.
