"Tiffany langsung tahu apa masalahnya. Dia pernah melihatnya sebelumnya, di pesta ulang tahun. Saudaranya menderita kekurangan manis yang tragis. Ya, dia dikelilingi oleh permen. Tetapi pada saat dia mengambil rasa manis sama sekali, kata otaknya yang kecanduan gula, itu berarti dia tidak mengambil sisanya.

But the moment he took any sweet at all, said his sugar-addled brain, that meant he was not taking all the rest. And there were so many sweets he'd never be able to eat them all. It was too much to cope with. The only solution was to burst into tears.
