Banana Split
Lynn tapped her brother on the shoulder excitedly. "Can I have half? I want half," she exclaimed. "Share?"
Laughing, Howie held the banana up above her head. "Get your own if you want some! This one's mine!" He reached up with his other hand and continued peeling the item of contention, laughing again as she made a playful jump for it.
"But if I have a whole one, my ears will itch!"
Howie rolled his eyes. "You know, generally speaking, if you have a negative reaction to a food, you just don't eat it."
"A little is okay! I'm not that allergic! And I like bananas." Lynn pouted. "Pleeease?"
"All right, all right." With an exaggerated sigh, he lowered his arms and broke off the top half of the banana. "And I don't even think you can be allergic to bananas anyway."
Lynn stuck out her tongue, then gleefully devoured her prize.
