                   A grilled cheese sandwich without cheese

“Would you like a grilled cheese sandwich?” asked Spring [1].

“Yes,” I said.

“How many? One, or two?”

I thought for a moment. “Two,” I said. Spring headed off towards the kitchen.

“Here you go,” said Spring, handing me a plate with two grilled cheese
sandwiches.

“Thank you,” I said. It was then I noticed that Spring had brought me one
grilled cheese sandwich, and one grilled cheese sandwich without cheese. I'm
used to getting a hamless ham and cheese without the cheese [2], but this is
the first time I got a grilled cheese sandwich without cheese (I should note
that upon hearing that she made me a grilled cheese sandwich without cheese
that she took said sandwich back into the kitchen and added the missing
cheese).
