Panel 1: Frances and Sara stand at the counter in a bakery. Frances says to Sara, "So that's it?" She then puts in her order: "One red velvet, please."

Panel 2: There are two cupcakes, each on a plate, and Sara's paying for them. Frances continues, "You kissed and that's IT? And now you haven't talked to him in WEEKS?"

Panel 3: They sit down at a table; behind them are displays of bakery items: cupcakes, pastries, cakes. Sara says, "It was Thanksgiving! And then... I don't know. But, AGAIN, nothing else happened!" Frances replies, "Oh, I see how it is. 'I miss you oh so much, Frances!' Then right back to Little Miss Snippy."

Panel 4: Sara, smiling, says, "You just like hearing me say I missed you..." Frances, holding up her cupcake, replies, "Feel free to say it AGAIN if you want..."

Panel 5: Frances, looking at her cupcake, continues, "Aren't cupcakes the best thing ever?"
