All of a sudden, the smell of smoke came / wafted in / floated in from the kitchen. While MB was petting his teddy on his head, he suddenly ran to the kitchen with Teddy and he found out his pot of spaghetti was overcooked so he opened the window and let the uncomfortable / disturbing smoke out of the kitchen. While MW was putting up her laundry she suddenly ran into the apartment and put down her laundry. Next she started running / she hurried / rushed / sped up to MB’s room. While MW did that, MB poured over his pot of spaghetti onto a plate but instead of seeing tomatoes and spaghetti noodles he saw / all that was left on the plate was ashes from the spaghetti, meatballs, and tomato sauce.
