Sophie Melita took a deep breath after that nearly breathless speech. You honestly couldn't tell that she kept cookies out constantly just by looking t her thin figure. Berty was always pinching her cheeks and telling her she needed to put some meat on her bones but, honestly she just couldn't help that she had a naturally fast metabolism so that no matter how many fattening cookies she ate she was always thin. Poor, dear, Berty didn't have that problem at all. She giggled to herself at the thought (she didn't even pause for breath in her head).
