Bang! The sound of pot hitting the floor echoed in the kitchen.
'Ahhh!!' Glynn screamed in pain as she pulled back her hand which she had deliberately placed in front of the mouth of the pot.
As the mushroom soup fell out of the pot, her hand got lightly scalded and her skin turned red. She raised her head and was pleased to see Ariana's face turning pale.
'What happened?' Mrs Mia rushed into the kitchen at once when she heard her daughter scream. Her gaze fell on Ariana, the fallen pot and then at Glynn who was cradling her scalded hand. 'Glynn! Oh my god, what happened to you?'
Glynn sniffed as she turned to look at her mother with tears in her eyes. She was not pretending as it truly hurt.
Halfway through she wanted to ask her mother to call for a doctor but when she recalled Ariel's words and tears, she gritted her teeth and continued with her plan.
