Make your own ice cream

"Make your own ice cream," Sadie read on the sign above the store and it sounded almost too normal to believe.

She walked over and glimpsed into the store, seeing a woman behind the counter. She looked interesting, wearing some ice blue clothes, similar makeup, and her hair was also dyed in that bluish color. Exactly as an ice princess, Sadie thought but from what she already had seen, she was not fully surprised anymore. The woman smiled as Sadie came in and looked around. The counter had a big cooled cabinet and she could see cups of ice cream in it.

"Hi," Sadie said and took a closer look at the cabinet. She noticed that the ice cream cups had small pictures attached to each of them, each showing a woman smiling into the camera. She wondered if those were creations by guests which turned out really good but her thoughts were interrupted by the lady behind the counter.

"How can I help you? Do you want some ice cream or make some yourself?"

"I ...," Sadie sounded a bit surprised. "The make your own ice cream sounds fun."

"Great," the lady said and pointed to the counter. "It is a few credits as you can see, but you will get some delicious ice cream afterward." Sadie held her bracelet against the reader and a deep sound appeared. The lady looked a bit sad for a moment, before regaining her smile. "Seems you have no credits on your account."

"Oh, I thought you can use this as a sort of credit card," Sadie said.

"Yes, but you need to activate that function at one of the info points. But no worry, there is an alternative."

"Yeah?"

"We make some more ice cream and you get your cup and we sell the rest here at the store for interested customers."

"Okay...," Sadie said. That explained of course the pictures on the cups of ice cream. "If that is not too much of a hassle. I don't know if I can make good ice cream."

"Oh no worry, sweety," the woman said. "A cute redhead like you never disappointed me in the past."
