Opening scene

In the thick smoke a hand grabs your arm, and the next second you're hoisted bodily into the air, the old cat in your arms yowling in terror. He carries you all the way out of the fire and sets you down beside the fire engine before he tears off his helmet and mask. His face is black with soot and his eyes are bloodshot. “That's three times!” It's the first time he's ever yelled at you; his voice is hoarse, but the hands gripping your shoulders are shaking. “Do you know that beam almost came down on you? …For a cat?” He closes his eyes for a second, takes a deep breath, and his voice drops. “Do that again and I'm going to talk to your father. …About what? About whether I can have the right to look after you properly.”
Replies, voice and the rest of the story happen in the app.
