Ally's POV

The buzzing of my alarm clock is like a ricochet straight from the head to the ears.

The continuous reminder that senior year is about to begin and my schooling life about to end.

Then the smoke alarm goes off and the smell of burning pancakes fills the air even through my closed room door.

I have no idea how my mother managed to do that,but she did.

I jump out of bed and rush down the stairs and into the kitchen to see her on the phone and swatting away at the smoke alarm, and I now realize how or rather why  this happened, mom could cook but not under pressure or in a hurry and work was probably stressing her out, being a doctor and all.

I then run to the staircase and open the door to the storage room underneath to get the fire extinguisher for emergencies -- trust me this is not the first time this has happened.

I continue towards the kitchen, and I when I get there see a small fire breaking out on the stove, mom isn't even paying attention to anything besides her phone call, but still swatting the annoying smoke alarm.

I panic and just start spraying the foam everywhere and then everything goes silent for a second.

"I'm going to have to call you back,just make sure that his meds and sugar levels are stable...okay...okay...bye"

Mom ends her phone call while wiping  away  the foam from her eyes and mouth, with her white lab coat,before turning to me.

"Umm...thank you, Allison "

What?

Thank you?

And no sarcasm at all !?!

No what the hell?or what were you thinking? Or what is wrong with you?

Instead I get a Thank you.

Wow!

" You're...well...come" I say slowly and suspiciously.

"Oooh bubbly party!!" My little sister squeaked, as she came into the foamed up kitchen pursuing her excitement by jumping up and down all the while clapping her hands.

I looked from her to mom and back to her, she looked ready to dive right into the foam fest.

"Piper no, do not even think about it" mom reprimanded " Girls please get done for school while I clean up for work so if you'll excuse me"she smiles widely then proceeds, exiting the kitchen.

"Okay lil monster let's go get dressed then we can go get pancakes at McD's okay " I say bending down and ruffling my sisters hair.

"Mickey D's, Mickey D's, I love Mickeys D's" she screamed excitedly, I widened my eyes at her statement, but her lisp made it too cute to be something dirty.
