Don’t Play With Imaginary Fire

(Our stepmom often calls when my sister and I are home alone to check up on us or ask us to do some chores. I decide to have some fun with it the next time she calls.)

Me: *picks up phone* “OH, MY GOD! PUT OUT THE FIRE! PUT IT OUT!”

Sister: *screams and runs around*

Me: *into the phone* “Hello?”

Stepmom: *laughing* “You do realize that now if there is actually a fire I won’t believe you, right?”
