🐥CHICK SHORTCAKE🐥

"Hey, Stacey, do you want to come over and make a cake?" asked Claudia with a smile.

"Hey, sure, Claud," replied Stacey, her eyes brightening.

"OK, see ya, Stace. Come at 5:00 pm."

"OK, bye."

Later that night, Stacey arrived at Claudia's cozy house, where the aroma of baking already filled the kitchen. The two friends rolled up their sleeves and began their culinary adventure.

"I'll get the butter and you get the sugar," instructed Claudia, reaching for ingredients in the neatly organised pantry.

"OK, let's get this party started!" cheered Stacey, her enthusiasm infectious.

Claudia and Stacey carefully measured and mixed, creating a delicate cake they affectionately named ~Chick Shortcake~. The dessert was small and sweet, resembling a fluffy chick in both size and charm. Claudia carefully sliced a piece for Stacey to take home. Delighted, Stacey nibbled on the cake as she walked back, savouring its delicious flavours. She couldn't wait to share her thoughts with Claudia.

That night, over the phone, Stacey praised the cake's taste, her voice brimming with joy. Claudia's reply was tinged with disappointment; she hadn't had a chance to taste it herself. Her younger brother Trevor, caught up in an indoor soccer game, accidentally knocked the cake to the floor. Stacey empathised with her friend's misfortune, bidding her goodnight with a heavy heart.

The next morning, Stacey awoke with a start, convinced she had transformed into a giant chicken with bright yellow feathers.

"AAAHHHHHHHH!!" screamed Stacey, sitting up abruptly in bed. Her heart raced until she realised she was still clad in her oversized chicken costume. "Mum! I just had the weirdest dream! I turned into a giant chicken!" she exclaimed, her voice shaky with residual fear.

"Yeah, no kidding," chuckled Stacey's mum, peering into the room with an amused expression. "You slept in your chicken costume."

"I guess that's where I got the vibes from," mumbled Stacey sheepishly, finally rising to change out of her feathered disguise.
