Ladies and gentlemen, I present: my dumb, chaotic, clumsy younger brother. "Holy shit, sorry, sorry!" He yelped, grabbing the burning piece of bread bare handed and tossing it into the trash. "Crap, this toaster is cursed. I'm telling you, this thing is going to kill me one day." I wanted to pick up the same toaster and smash it over his head. But I was late. I was so late. I inhaled deeply, forcing the rage down. Anger could wait, rent couldn't.

It was like gravity had taken an extra toll on her lips right then, pulling them down into a look of disappointment. “Well?” he asked. “It's tastes like burned,” she said, washing down the bite with orange juice. “It tastes burnt,” Mildred corrected gently.

Remember the last time you did that? What was it? Chicken Parmesan? You almost burned the house down.” He sighed, looking back toward the oven where a layer of dark smoke still lingered from overcooking the French toast.

But now that he had truly lost Esther, the pain was unbearable. Chloe had reached out to him multiple times, but he no longer cared. Without Esther, even happiness felt impossible. Only now did Tristan realize that Esther was like water to him, plain but essential. Chloe, on the other hand, was like soda—sweet and exciting but not something you could live on. Who could ever give up drinking water? But he had figured it out too late. Esther was happy now. Tristan wasn't sure if he was happy for her or mourning for himself, but he actually cried. He held his phone and watched the video all night long.

Without Duncan’s voice or the kids’ laughter echoing off my walls, the silence was too much. I didn’t even bother turning on the TV today. The knock startled me. Sharp and impatient. I jumped, and the smell of burning toast hit me an instant later. Damn it.

Grandma stood directly in front of the stove, staring out the window above the sink while thin curls of gray smoke climbed from the toaster slots. I crossed the room, reached past her shoulder, and pressed the cancel button with my thumb. The toast popped up, the edges completely black. Grandma blinked, her shoulders dropping. "Oh, dear." She looked down at the burnt bread, her brow furrowing. "I suppose that one's beyond saving."

Andrew confirmed, still very solemn. "Also," Amelia went on, warming to the subject, "you burnt the toast this morning and you never burn the toast. You are very particular about toast. Mummy says you have strong toast feelings. And then you looked at the burnt toast for like ten whole seconds before you put it in the bin and that was a very long time to look at toast, Dad." I opened my mouth. Then closed it. Then said, "The toast got away from me." "The toast got away from you," Andrew repeated slowly.

SILAS "How the fuck does someone burn toast?" I chastised, grumbling in announce as I bounced the black, hard bread in my hand and then flung it into the sink. "Daddy," my seven year old shot me a glare as she chided, "Bad word, and you burnt the toast because you were too busy trying not to burn the bacon," she snickered, sitting on the bar stool and watching me with amusement lighting up her eyes. She was growing up to be such a beautiful young girl.

The flicker of a streetlamp caught his face; the face of the person I could never quite make out leaning over the hood.
