Stairway to Heaven

“What are you going to show me? Where is it?” Alicia followed a step or two behind Sally as they walked through the woods.

“This way.” Sally strode along with confidence.

They reached a stairway leading up the side of a hill. Sally didn’t even slow down. Despite how cracked and old the steps or rusty the railing, she went right up. Alicia followed a bit slower. At the top she tried to take in the view, but panted too much.

“Is. This. It?”

“No. What I wanted to show you is how many calories it takes to burn off the cookie you stole from my plate.”
