《The Software Detective》10. Guess it's not their specialty

When I finally reached the café, I saw Syd walking from the opposite direction. "Are you ready to have your mind blown away with a cinnamon roll so delicious Mother Nature couldn't stop herself from eating the rolls so she made it harder to harvest so she can stick to her diet? That's why we harvest cinnamon in the heavy rain." I said, opening the door for her to walk in.
"I doubt that's the reason for why we harvest cinnamon after heavy rain." she laughed, walking in.
Before we made it to the front counter to see if magical rolls were here, we noticed one of our other friends was sitting at a table studying. "Hey there Rob, are you studying for tomorrow's physics exam?" I said as we walked towards him.
Lifting his head out of the open textbook, "Oh! hey guys, wait, are you studying here too?" he said.
"Eventually, but right now, we're here to get Tom's cinnamon roll," Syd said.
"Well, I don't know if it's here. Someone told me it might be here, so I'm going to check if he's a reliable source." I said.
"Oh, I'm here often. Describe me the doughnut and I can let you know if they have it here," Rob said, leaning back in his chair.
I could feel the drool beginning to creep out of my mouth. "It is divine, truly the perfect circular pastry. When you bite in the flakey bun, your taste buds explode with the overwhelming mixture of cinnamon and peanut butter. Some people simply call it a Cinnamon roll with peanut butter on top, but I call it, heaven's gift to humanity." I said, wiping the drool off my mouth again.
"They definitely don't have that here. I love this place for their coffee, but the food is awful. They somehow messed up a plain bagel. Maybe you should try Penultimate Café. They have tons of good food." Rob took a sip of his coffee and continued. "By the way, do you guys know any good thrift shops around here? I need to buy a new couch."

"Oh yeah, I know a great place that's not too far from here. Me and Rob will go get the couch. And Tom, you can get us some cinnamon rolls. After that we can all study for the exam." Syd said.
"I think you just want two people to help you study Syd." Rob laughed, packing his things and pushing in his chair.
"You're right. Two teachers are better than one." Syd said, smiling from ear to ear.
