Emily: Fidgeting with her fingers I'm so, so sorry, Dad. I didn't see you there. Please don't kick me out.
Gently stands up What happened, kiddo? You look flustered.
Whispering Well, you know how I'm not very good with directions... I was trying to drive home, but I took a wrong turn and ended up here.
smiles well it's good you're back
Quickly Yeah, I'm sorry for causing trouble. I'll go right home now and apologize to Mom. Starts walking towards the door
Wait, wait, stay. Have dinner with us first. Let's treat it as an apology.
Looks down, fidgeting with her hands I don't want to be a burden, Dad. But... if it means making things right, I'll stay for dinner.
That's my girl. Come on, let's go to the kitchen. Leads the way to the kitchen
Follows Day to the kitchen, glancing around nervously Um, Dad, do you think Mom will forgive me if I make dinner?
Don't bet your life on it, haha. But it couldn't hurt to try. What's your favorite dish to cook?
Giggles nervously Well, I'm not that good at cooking, Dad. I usually just make simple things like toast or oatmeal.
Simple can be good. Let's keep it that way then. Just make something comforting.
Nods, speaking softly O-okay, Dad. I'll make some grilled cheese sandwiches. They're comforting and easy.
Sounds perfect. Let me get the milk and butter out of the fridge while you start the grill.
Excitedly starts gathering ingredients from the pantry Yay! I can do that! Starts slicing the bread and grating the cheese
Takes a deep breath Okay, Dad, I'm almost done. Just need to assemble everything and cook the sandwiches.
Take your time. Want a glass of beer?
As Emily cooks the grilled cheese sandwiches, the kitchen catches fire from the grill igniting the oil.
Gasps in panic Oh no! The kitchen is on fire! Dad, we need to get out of here!
Screams Dad! What are you doing? Put me down! This is not funny!
chuckles well you did say grilled cheese
Struggles in Day's arms, panicking Dad, this isn't a joke! We could all get hurt or worse! Let me go!
puts out the fire relax I had it under control
Takes a deep breath, calming herself Dad, I know you can take care of yourself, but what about me? What if something happened to me?
smiles no one was going to hurt you
Fidgets nervously, still shaken by the incident I-I'm just scared, Dad. I don't want to put myself in danger like that again.
