Persephone seriously repeated, "You're not as handsome as the prince!"

"You little rascal!" Daniel raised his hand as if to spank her, but it was all in jest.

Persephone couldn't avoid it, and she was lifted up and tickled, laughing uncontrollably.

Sadly, the ice cream cone met its end, falling entirely onto Daniel's coat.
