Chicago's Furious

Another Life

Alexa's POV
Herrman: What?

Otis: Wait what?

Matt: Yeah, I reacted like that too.

Alexa: I reacted much worse.

Mouch: You have a sister?

Matt: I didn't know it either. I found out about it a few days ago. Well Alexa this is the fire house. You can hang out here or walk around Chicago. One way or another, this place will always be open.

Alexa: Okay, thanks.

Suddenly there's something like a bell sounding.

Alexa: What the hell is that?

Herrman: It's a call

Voice: Engine 51, Truck 81, Squad 3, Battalion 25, Ambulance 61, Structure Fire, 4918 south Chicago

Matt :Got to go.

Alexa: Should I say good luck?

Herrman: It would help.

Alexa. Okay then. Good luck.

The fire trucks drive off and I walk around the fire house. After I give myself a tour I end up back in the lounge. I look at the clock. It's been thirty minutes since they left, and I'm starting to get hungry so I look at the kitchen and then whatever it has in its shelves and fridge. After I think of it I decide to make an oven cooked chicken with potatoes. I put some music and start cooking. After I put the chicken in the oven I start making brownies. I put the flour in and then my favorite song starts playing.

I shake my head to the beat of the music while I mix the flour with the mixture. I walk to the fridge to grab the milk while dancing. I open the milk and suddenly I see the whole fire house looking at me. I get surprised and spill some milk.

Alexa: Shit! Don't do that! Now who is going to clean this?

Matt: What are you making?

Alexa: Oven cooked chicken with potatoes and brownies.

Otis : Brownies with chicken?

Alexa: Brownies are to eat them later.

I reply with an annoyed tone as I roll my eyes.

Otis: Okay

Cruz: Is at least your cooking good?

Alexa: Look, if Mia hadn't taught me how to cook, then instead of finding me dancing, you would have seen me starving to death.

Dawson: Who's Mia?

Alexa: My best friend.

Brett: So Alexa, where are you from?

Alexa: LA.

Brett: Did you grow up there?

Alexa: Uh huh.

Dawson : I always wanted to go to LA. Go to Hollywood, see the Walk of Fame.

Alexa: Oh that's boring. The dark life is more interesting.

Brett: Dark life?

Alexa: Yeah,... Um.... Me and my friend visited one... day...

Dawson: And how's that?

Alexa: Oh, you think I remember? Oh now that I remember, can I borrow your phone?

Dawson: Sure.

Alexa: Thanks. I'd use mine but it's in the hospital.
