Her name was Tickle Me Pink—at least, that was what it read on her label. She was slender, her sides ceaseless, and her tip never used. Despite all of her perfections, she looked lonely amongst her friends. Tropical Rain Forest, the foreign exchange student from the other box, was no help, for she was only concerned with…
