"Shit!" She cursed, throwing the steaming tray onto the table before her, before taking a step back. "I did it-"
"Mama, what does shi-" Ky appeared by her leg, eyes wide, as he clutched her pants in his small fists. Gasping she quickly covered her mouth with a hand, but it wasn't long before a smile creeped out past her fingers and she giggled lightly. "Nothing, Ky!" She exclaimed, bending down beside her son she reached forwards, one long finger reaching forwards to gently bump him on the nose. Ky giggled, raising his hands up to fend off her attack. "That's not going to work, Mister!" She laughed, before reaching around and wrapping both her arms around him, moving upwards she chucked him into the air, his delighted screech followed all the way as he slipped down and back into her arms. "Honestly, what it means is that your mother is a terrible cook." She said, before turning her gaze towards the charred mess in front of her. It was supposed to be chicken, and those long stringy things beside it had once resembled carrots.
The kitchen looked like a war zone, and Saffron Lowe was going to appear in it at any moment. Groaning loudly she gently put Ky back down on the ground. The potatoes had turned out well, but that had been the easiest thing to make of all. She had some salad she could put together in the fridge, but no meat to go with the meal. What-
Oh.
Ky scrambled around the counter, little legs racing towards the door, one long, shrill cry escaping his lips as he raced to meet his play date. The sound of the door bell echoed in her ears, a terrifying reality that she had no food at all for her guests settled over the kitchen as she moved to follow her son. "Shit." She muttered.
