A love story

I'm always trying to get my nephew Brandon to express his emotions.
For example, I know that I'm one of his favorite aunts, but he's a private boy who holds everything inside his tender little heart, and he would never want his other aunts to feel bad, so he just says things like,
"I love you all equally Aunt Sue." 
He so sensitive and kind.

About a month ago he was at our house and he noticed this giant lollipop (that has been hanging around for about a year and a half), if there's one thing Brandon loves almost as much as he loves me, it's candy.
"Is this for sale?" he asked. (Because, what? I'm running a candy store up in here? Sheesh.)
That's when I had a brilliant idea.
"Why yes nephew, it is for sale." 
We chatted, a deal was struck, and a few minutes later Brandon "found" me in a room filled with witnesses, where he hugged me, professed his love and my favorite status, then KISSED me on the cheek.
Proving that everyone has their price.
