289:What's Cooking

In one of Evan's mansions, BBSR…

Sniff…Sniff… 

Evan was jolted awake upon sensing a sharp smell of smoke assaulting his nostrils. His heart raced as he sprang up, calling out in alarm. 

"SMOKE… FIRE!"

Screaming, he looked around only to find the spot where Suri was sleeping was empty.

Recalling his mother calling Suri for an early shopping trip, a sense of foreboding gripped his heart.

Without spending another moment for a second thought, he dashed from his bedroom, rushing down the hall and leaping from the top floor to the ground below. He landed gracefully but his eyes immediately widened as he took in the haze filling the air. Smoke swirled around the room, thick and stinging. 

"What the hell?"

He strained to locate the source, nonetheless after following the trail of smoke, he was led to the kitchen.
