Pro-tip for writing a story. If you can make something explode within the first paragraph of your story, it will really draw people in. The most important part though is don't tell the viewer why it exploded. You don't even need a reason, just imply that everything will be explained soon and that it's related to the things you actually wanted the reader to care about. There's nothing I hate more than a story by an author who doesn't even know how to manipulate their readers smh...
