Daniel was trying to do three things at once. He was trying his best to make an apple pie for the new tenant, something he’d only attempted once before. His wife had always done that to make new tenants feel welcome and he wanted to carry on the tradition.<br/>He was also trying to get Abby to stop crying. She wouldn’t take the bottle even though she was crying. Her diaper was clean and fresh and she’d just woken up from a nap so he didn’t know what else was wrong.<br/>On top of all that Vinny was smashing his toys against the wall. Whether he damaged his toy or the wall either was a problem.<br/>“Vinny, please stop that. Please don’t break your toy. Please don’t break daddy’s wall.” He sighed, feeling exhausted and sounding overwhelmed. He layed Abby down in a little play pen before going to Vinny and lifting him up away from the wall and placing him inside the playpen as well. “Time out.” Daniel said. And now he had two crying babies on his hands. He sighed again and reached inside to comfort them both.<br/>“There there, Daddy’s not mad see... Abby what’s wrong? Why are you crying?” They both stopped however in shock and fear when the fire alarm went off. In a panic he ran to the stove and opened it, swiftly pulling the pie out. Half of it was burnt. Today was a nightmare. The two of them were now crying harder than before as he struggled to blow the smoke away and stop the alarm. Once it stopped he hurried over to comfort his children.<br/><br/>Daniel didn’t have any time at all. The new tenant would be here soon. He wanted to welcome him to the building. He cut the burnt parts of the pie away leaving only half of the pie. But maybe it was better than nothing. Vinny had become distracted with another toy and Abby finally took the bottle, calming down after she had eaten. Pie in one hand, baby in another and little Vinny right behind him they marched across the hall and knocked on the door. Well, carefully kicked on the door, which was then imitated by Vinny, a lot harder.<br/>“Vincent, please don’t break the door...”
