A lollipop, two kids and me...

I was quietly pushing the stroller: Penny, the youngest of the two sisters was sitting in the front seat, Zessy was in the back seat playing with her empty lunch box.

It was such a relaxing moment, the girls were simply looking to the landscape around them, the neighbourhood is quite, I wouldn't mind pushing the stroller for another hour, it was such a peaceful, quite moment, until... Zissy pulls out a lollipop out of no where (probably her lunchbox wasn't that empty then) and starts unwrapping it.

Oy! Now I have to find another lollipop, or handle a yelling/crying/anger scene, right here in the middle of the streets!!
My thoughts are racing, I anxiously started searching in my handbag for a candy or a lollipop, I always keep a candy, but when I need it most, I can't find it! I am now desperately looking for a candy in the container under the stroller, while Penny's cry "I want lollipop, lollipop, I WANT A LOLLIPOOOOP!!!" got louder and louder...
Suddenly she became quite, totally quite! I stood, Zissy was feeding the lollipop to her little sister! She just decided to share it with her sister, she fed Penny a little of the sweet thing, and then sucked it herself, I continued pushing the stroller, watching the kinderlech gradually finish the lollipop, a bit for me, and a bit for you, sharing, simply.
