Ella's POV:

I woke up the next morning to the smell of bacon burning. Flame, I sigh at the thought of her cooking. She may be fifteen minutes older but man she can not cook.

As I walk into the kitchen I realize she usually was at work by now. So I ask, "Aren't you supposed to be at work Flame?"

"The company sold to another person and that person fired me and a few others. I didn't want to tell you."

"Why? I at least have a job to make money. Actually I got a raise yesterday, on our birthday!" Then I say nervously, "Then why are you in a good mood?"

"That is for you to find out later."

I hated when she wouldn't just tell me but I shrugged it off.

When I got into the car to drive home from work I got a call from a unknown number. But, I was driving so I let it just ring. I wonder who called. Probably just a wrong number.
