  &quot;I believed we all want pizza,&quot; he said and the children all shouted yes. 
  &quot;Good,&quot; he said. But I wouldn t mind an ice cream with my pizza,&quot; he said
  &quot;Me too,&quot; The children shouted, while they also called out the different flavors they wanted happily.
  &quot;Tania?&quot; Michael called
  Of course. I love pizza and ice cream,&quot; she said smiling
  He turned to Mitchell, &quot;what about you?&quot; He asked not smiling
  &quot;I think…&quot; She started but was cut short by Anabella
