Sophia couldn't help but beam happily. Hearing that Tim himself felt as if he could handle other people better now made her less worried about the shy, awkward young man. She wanted him to be able to enjoy going out and being around others without having to worry so much. He needed to make friends other than just her. To be honest, though, Sophia also really looked forward to the day when Tim could be perfectly at ease around her. Maybe then she could tell him how she was feeling for him.

"Just trying to help out," Sophia said, giving her friend a smile. Having noticed Tim had picked one of the more sweeter candies just a bit ago, the young woman turned to the rows of candy in search of something not as potent. She came across some gummies that were round and shape and varied in color of the fruit they were flavored for. Inside of the round gummies were a bit of juice that would burst out when it was bitten into. It was refreshing, really.

After staring at the various colors for a minute, she picked up an orange colored, orange flavored one and turned to Tim with it. "Here," she offered kindly. "These gummies aren't as sweet as that candy rope you had. You might like it better."
