As kids grow teeth, snacks like candy are inevitably controlled more strictly.

Because of New Year, Steve Burton’s pocket was fortunately filled with all kinds of candies, including milk candies, fruit candies, chocolate candies…

When he finished making the snowball, he conveniently took out two black-wrapped candies from his pocket and stuck them onto the snowball as eyes.

Just as Steve was about to fetch half a carrot from the house to use as the snowman’s nose, he saw Ruby Gregory standing nearby, tilting her head with her finger in her mouth as she stared at the snowball in front of him.

Children’s memories don’t last too long, so when Steve suddenly saw Ruby, it took him a moment to realize that this was the little girl who had torn his storybook apart in the summer.

Fortunately, Steve had a good memory, so he remembered her name, and was about to greet her when Ruby suddenly looked like she’d seen something exciting. She walked up to the snowball with her short little legs, bent down and dug out the “one eye” that was the candy he had just put into the snowball.

Perhaps she had eaten the black-wrapped candy before and recognized it, so she took the package to her mouth and bit it twice. In the end, she bit open the packaging but the candy fell onto the snow pile.

She didn’t care about the dirt, bending down to pick up the candy.

But Steve frowned and said, “You can’t eat that!”

Seeing Ruby picking up the candy, Steve hurriedly reached out to snatch the candy from her hand.

But when Ruby saw someone trying to steal her food, she lowered her head and bit Steve’s candy-holding finger hard without a second thought.

A child, just over a year old, may not have all her teeth, but the bite made Steve’s finger feel a sharp pain. He loosened his grip and Ruby managed to put the candy in her mouth.

Perhaps because of getting the candy, she squinted her eyes at him and smiled.

It was the first time Steve had been bitten by someone since he was little, so he looked at the uneven bite marks on his finger and couldn’t help but smile back.

After that, Steve couldn’t bring himself to eat the candies in his pocket, even the ones his family allowed him to eat. He would secretly save them up and give one to Ruby whenever he saw her.

After many encounters, Ruby knew that she could always get candy from Steve that her mom wouldn’t let her eat. So she would sneak out every day when her mom wasn’t looking.

And so, Steve and Ruby began their innocent childhood sweethearts era.

Later on, Ruby started going to kindergarten, and Steve was already in first grade.

As time went on, Ruby started elementary school, and The Gregorys sent her to the same school Steve attended..
