Well, my day has gone from happy to utter disappointment in a matter of two hours. I am too stunned to even look at the chaos going around me. A sudden accidental fire destroyed my entire bakery in just twenty minutes. Flames enveloped the entire kitchen and the deafening sound of the microwave, oven and coffee machine exploding added more fire to the already burning orange blaze.
The barista in my bakery accidentally left one of the coffee machines running for too long. That machine overheated and an explosion led to this entire fire. She called the fire department and her fearful face spoke of the impact this accidental fire had on my bakery. She came near me and crying profusely, said, "I am really sorry. I didn't mean to bring this entire place down. It was really an accident. I am seriously sorry, boss."
I hugged her tightly, calmed her and before the voice of the fire truck's siren approached the bakery, I fell unconscious.
