Sierra was now waking up to the sound of Trevor's footsteps.
She stretched out and yawned.
It was so good to be back on the surface, spending time with the father that she loved the most.
After she stretched, she began to feel a hot bubbling sensation in her throat.
What is going on? Why do I feel so hot? Did I drink anything last night that made this set off? What should I do? Should I go to a doctor? Should I tell Dad? Wait...NO! I can't. I swore to Uncle Max that I wouldn't tell Dad. What am I to do?!... Sierra said to herself as she was looking around the room, frantically.
Trevor came walking into the living room, with a plate of blueberry muffins and a cup of orange juice.
When he entered the living room, he saw Sierra breathing in and out, loudly and frantically.
"SIERRA!" He said, worried as he placed the plate and cup onto the table and went over to her side.
Sierra looked at him.
"Daddy, please help me..." She said as she was trying to think the burning sensation in her throat away.
Trevor placed a hand on her cheek and began to stroke it, gently.
"What's wrong, sweet pea?" He asked, with a sympathetic look on his face.
He was really wanting to help her.
"It's this burning feeling in my throat. I'm not sure where it's coming from, Daddy." Sierra said as she was pointing at her throat and looking at her father, concerned.
Trevor began to think.
So...Something is wrong with my daughter's throat. But...What can it be? I know that we had Hibachi last night. It's time to investigate further into this problem. He said to himself as he kept his eyes on Sierra.
He didn't want nothing to happen to her.
"Sierra, do you remember what we had for dinner last night?" Trevor asked as he looked at her.
Sierra began to think and she suddenly remembered.
"Yes. We had some sort of Hibachi. Why?" She said as she looked at him, with intrigue as she was still trying to keep her mind off of the excruciating heat that was slowly beginning to emerge.
"Well...You said that you felt a burning sensation in your throat, sweet pea. Did you eat anything spicy last night from dinner?" Trevor said as he looked at her, concerned.
Sierra began to think of what kind of Hibachi food that she had from last night.
