Love in Flames: It All Goes Up in Smoke
The night I find out I'm pregnant, my family's villa suddenly goes up in flames. I endure the suffocating smoke and run the risk of being disfigured as I run to my son's bedroom. However, it's empty. Just then, I hear his excited exclamations outside the window.
"Monica, you look so cool when putting out fires! I bet you'll get first place in this upcoming Firefighter Challenge!"
I'm about to head downstairs to lecture him when a wall collapses and crushes me. As I drift in and out of consciousness, I hear my stern, stoic husband praise Monica Sloan for her courage.
If I'm guessing correctly, my husband and son have started this fire to please her.
I stare at the door, which is so close and yet so far. I send out one final text before dying of asphyxiation.
