“The 'Mystery Meatball' Madness!” exclaimed the newspaper headline. Leo, a baker by trade, knew exactly whose meatballs these were. He'd shown Enzo, the new butcher down the street, everything he knew, including his secret meatball recipe. He'd even forgotten about it after a while.

Leo started pacing his small bakery, a grin plastered across his face. He'd always loved to cook, especially for others. It was thrilling to witness the success of his creation.
