Caramel Drizzle

"Caramel syrup or caramel drizzle?"
     "Sorry?"
     "Caramel syrup or caramel drizzle?
     This is overheard conversation. I look up: it is a tall slim woman with a ponytail buying the drink at a Starbucks counter. She is wearing a dark blue uniform. We are in an airport. She is probably a flight attendant.
     Long pause for deliberation. She has not encountered this choice before.
     "I'll take the drizzle."

Now I see her from behind, over there, with her blond ponytail and sticking-out ears, drinking her caramel drizzle. 
     While she stood at the counter and deliberated, I was deciding that the drizzle was a smaller amount of caramel than the syrup, even though surely syrup must be involved in the drizzle.

Later, she walks away with another airline employee, the empty cup in her hand, the caramel drizzle inside her. 
     And then she turns out to be the attendant on my flight – her name is Shannon. So, her caramel drizzle will also be going with us to Chicago.
