Nodding to her mom's response, Torunn walked ive to the sink and opened the cabinet doors beneath it. Kneeling down, she spotted the box of bulbs easily and quickly. Her mom kept it so neat and organized under her sink. Her own, was horrible. She would have to move things around sometimes depending on what she was looking for. Torunn grabbed the box of bulbs in one hsnd, and closed the cabinet doors as she rose back to her feet. 

She had just started to open the box when a bright light flashed in the window her mom was sitting next to. It had been so bright, and so close, that all she saw when it flashed, was white. The sudden massive rumble of thunder soon followed, shaking the penthouse and causing Torunn to jump in surprise once again. Her wide eyes turned to the window, then back to her mom, just as another flash of light blinded her. "Holy shh... crap." Torunn said as she quickly caught, and corrected herself before she cursed. 

Shaking her head, she turned her attention back to the task at hand, and finished opening the box. Reaching in, she grabbed one out by the bulb end, then went to grab the other end with her other hand. As soon as her hand and the threaded end of the bulb connected, that bulb too, exploded. In her hand. Glass shattered and flew several feet before falling and hitting the ground. Luckily, none stuck in her hand or anywhere else. Torunn, stared wide eyed at the now shattered bulb she still held in her hand. 

She was speechless for a moment, just... staring at what remained. Torunn swallowed hard and quickly set the remainder of the bulb on the counter. Her eyes then moved to the box that contained 2 other bulbs, and again, she stared. "Mom?" Torunns brow furrowed and she bit her lip. She reached back into the box and pulled out another bulb, by the glass dome again. Flipping it upside down, she placed it on the counter, and stepped back.

Torunn removed her light jacket and moved it in front of her, holding it up to her eyes. She inched her finger towards the threaded end, and again, it exploded as soon as her finger made contact with it. Torunn had lifted the jacket just before she touch it, but could hear the glass explode. What the hell? She slowly lowered the jacket and stared at the remains of the second bulb, in disbelief. There's no way that could happen twice in a row. She was tempted to try for a third time, but didn't. "Uhm, mom? What the he'll just happened?"
