So, uh, yeah. Things got a little out of hand the other day. Viola and I were just trying to make dinner, you know, being all domestic and stuff. But then, well, let's just say things didn't exactly go according to plan.
It all started innocently enough. Viola had this recipe she wanted to try out, some fancy pasta dish with a bunch of ingredients I couldn't even pronounce. But hey, I'm always up for a challenge. So there we were, chopping veggies and boiling water, feeling like a couple of regular Martha Stewarts.
But then disaster struck. I'm not sure exactly what went wrong, but suddenly there was smoke everywhere and flames shooting up from the stove. Viola screamed, I panicked, and before we knew it, the whole damn kitchen was on fire.
I did what any hero would do - I grabbed Viola and we hightailed it out of there. We watched from a safe distance as the flames licked at the ceiling and the smoke billowed out the windows. It was like something out of a cheesy action movie, only this time I was the one causing the chaos.
Jason and Alfred were out on a mission at the time, thank goodness. I can only imagine the look on their faces when they got back and saw the mess we'd made. The guilt is eating me up inside, but Viola just laughs it off, saying we'll have a great story to tell the grandkids one day.
I guess that's one way of looking at it. But still, I can't help but feel like I let everyone down. I'm supposed to be the responsible one, the one who keeps things together when everything else is falling apart. And yet here I am, setting fire to the kitchen like a damn amateur.
I know I need to make it right. I need to apologize to Alfred, to Jason, to anyone who's been affected by my stupidity. Maybe I'll offer to fix up the kitchen myself, show them that I can clean up my own messes. And hey, maybe I'll even learn a thing or two about cooking in the process.
But for now, I'll just sit here with Viola, watching the sunset and trying to forget about the chaos we caused. Maybe tomorrow will be better. Maybe tomorrow I'll be the hero I'm supposed to be. But for now, I'll just be the guy who burned down the kitchen.
Oops.
