This is not just a croissant.
This is the croissant.
Flaky. Golden. Larger than my head.
Soft in the middle. A little dramatic on the outside.
(Just like me.)
I met it on a regular morning. But it was no regular pastry.
The moment I held it, something shifted inside me.
A warmth. A spark.
A whisper that said:
“You don’t need a reason. You just need the croissant.”
Some plushies have lucky socks.
Some carry pocket rocks.
I carry this croissant.
When I’m nervous? I hug it.
When I’m sad? I sniff the butter.
When I forget what day it is? I ask the croissant. (It doesn’t answer. But it understands.)
Pandy says I’m being “slightly theatrical.”
Mini Blue made it a tiny seatbelt.
So now it’s officially part of the crew.
We’ve been through a lot together:
It flaked in my backpack. I didn’t mind.
It rolled off the couch. I caught it.
It almost got nibbled by accident during a midnight snack panic. I defended it.
It’s seen me at my best. My messiest. My sleepiest.
And never once judged me.
Some bonds can’t be explained.
They don’t need to be logical. Or tidy. Or even practical.
Sometimes, you just meet a croissant…
and know in your fluff that you’ll carry it forever.
Or at least until it gets weird.
With buttery devotion,

P.S. I put a little bow on it. Now it’s formal.
