FEGG - G9 - Edmund - Chapter 1

 I loved to bake. I thought it was amazing how just sugar, milk and flour could make a cake.

 Dad was my role model. He could bake a lot. And not even just bake, he was a great chef too. 

The fire alarm went off. It was something who often happened in our house lately.

 I picked up the burned muffins from the oven and waited for dad to turn off the fire alarm.

The whole kitchen smelled burned muffin now.

Great.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 But just half an hour later, I had made some not-burned muffins.

 And dad had made a delicious lime pie.

Honestly, I was jealous of his baking skills.

 Me and my sister had opened our own little business. We sold the stuff I baked in my little oven.

 My sister was the seller and I was the baker. Even the first days, we got a lot of customers.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 But it wasn't long before my sister started high school, and then she didn't want to work with me anymore.

My parents even built her a whole new room. Or maybe I should say house.

 But with our amount of money, we couldn't afford more than just a bed in her room.

 But me myself, still slept in my parents room.

 And I kept running our old little baking business.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Years passed by. At the end, I didn't want to sleep in my parents room anymore, so I moved into Sheila's little house. But we built a wall through the room, for some privacy.

 Even though I closed our business, I kept on making food.

But I didn't just bake anymore, I cooked too.

And at last, it was time for prom.

That was even the night, when something else happened.
