Fire! FIRE! ... Fire?
You know, we often hear sirens and usually the "bomba" or "polis" or "ambulan" will be heading to somewhere not near our homes.
Today, I heard the siren (again), and it gradually became louder (sometimes it does), but then it became EVEN louder, and I actually saw the siren (lights) outside MY window. The bomba (fire brigade) stopped at my area. I was like "What happpened????!?"
Quickly opened the door to see what the heck was going on. Was pretty alarmed. After a few seconds, a young man approached the firemen & explained briefly what happened. He did that very calmly. I was quite relieved that everyone was quite relaxed, but wanted to make sure if everything was REALLY alright. Went out of the house to check, and *phew!*.. Didn't see any black smoke or whatsoever. Asked the fireman later if everything was okay, he said "Yea, everything's fine. No biggie"..
It kinda scared me. It made me think: "What if the fire was really huge? What would we do? Would anyone knock on our doors and warn us? What belongings would we take with us? Would there be enough time to be greedy and take ALL valubles with us? What will happen to our house? Would we have a home still? What would we do if we've no where to stay? AND we still have classes to attend, workplace to go to.. How long would it take for us to find a new & comfortable place? Would we have the money to buy a new place anyway? What happens next?"
Hehe.. Not that I didn't think about it before. It was a longgg time ago since I thought & actually *did* prepare some clothes in case of emergency. Heeh! ;) AND, this is NOT the first time that the fire brigade came. The last time, i think someone's kitchen was on fire, and a minor explosion happened. =P. I was out of the house, so, yea. =P. *Sigh*.. I love my house. It's at least a comfortable place for me to stay & sleep at. Really thank God that nothing happened! We should count our blessings, everyday. ^_^
