Day One Hundred Forty-Two: "Listening to the Chocolate" by Rebecca L. Brown

Concession.

A woman contrasts chocolate with her lover, pointing out the satisfaction she gets and maintains from chocolate and not from the other. This story could have come off as a bit cliche or even trite but it didn't. There was a clear and unique tone to the narrator's rant that made this very readable and almost addictive...like the chocolate itself. By story's end, the reader is given a treat when the narrator turns the tables. Very nicely done and memorable.
