3 and 4 hopped into the kitchen. A bright vending machine stood by the tidy bin.
3 pressed a button. Clunk! A cookie dropped into the slot. 4 waved eagerly, but the machine stayed quiet.
3 crunches the cookie alone, then peeks at 4's sad face. 3 slides half the cookie across the floor.
4 catches it and gives a big thumbs-up.
4 pressed the button. Whirr, clunk! A giant pretzel tumbled out.
4 tried to push the pretzel toward 3, but it rolled right into the tidy bin and got stuck.
4 gasped and tugged at the bin, but the pretzel wouldn't budge.
3 and 4 pushed the vending machine together. Heave, heave! It shuddered, glowed gold, and dinged!
Two snacks tumbled out at once — a cupcake for 3 and a pretzel for 4. They stared, then grinned.
They sat on the kitchen floor, munching side by side. The empty vending machine hummed happily. 3 tapped 4 with a friendly nudge.
