“Don’t do it Nicky. You’re going to make a mess in Gram’s kitchen.” I watched as Nicky hid the second to last mountain dew in a kitchen cupboard. She took the last can and shook it before putting it back in the fridge.
Michael came into the kitchen and headed straight for the fridge to get a drink. He was talking but my mind was focused on the green can he held in his hand. As he continued to talk, I slowly walked backward until I was behind the counter which I planned to use for cover. Nicky was trying hard not to laugh and made no movement to get out of the way.
As soon as I heard the hissing pop of the can, I fell to the floor. I heard Michael gasp and Nicky burst into laughter. Still on the floor, I peeked around the counter to see the damage. Nicky was on the floor laughing. Michael stood in the same spot holding the soda can with his mouth hanging open. Mountain dew covered both of their clothes, the floor, and the refrigerator door. Standing in the entrance of the kitchen was my grandmother with her hands on her hips.
