"I don't know! I asked Queenie to get the soup—how did it suddenly explode? Oh, Queenie, please be okay!"
I stepped out of the bathroom.
"What are you talking about, Corinne? Why wouldn't I be okay?"
She froze the moment she saw me.
"Queenie, weren't you the one who went to the kitchen? If it wasn't you in there, then who was it?"
I feigned panic as I spoke. "I had a stomachache, so I asked Calvin to get the soup instead. That explosion just now—please don't tell me something happened to my husband?"
