A creative short story I wrote last year for my literature subject, inspired by the book Smart Ovens for Lonely People by Elizabeth Tan.

I wrote this story in a short period of time under immense emotional disturbance and a high amount of stress, which is why it's one of the better things I've written. Enjoy.
