Shikera stood aimlessly in the kitchen, as she stared at all the ingredients and utensils and wondered what she would use them for. She was currently suffering the consequences of her overconfidence yesterday. Overconfidence was even a glorified name she preferred to call her bragging yesterday night. She had promised to make Esther's snacks herself and now, she just remembered that she could not even cook anything.
She checked the time on her phone and noticed it was five minutes past 6, 55 minutes before Esther was expected to wake up. She had been standing here for an entire hour, after she had woken up with a start from a nightmare where Hazel was taunting her for making Esther go hungry. She had rushed down to the kitchen and since then, she had been examining the ingredients and utensils alone.
