“There’s a Fire on the 4th Floor!”

“Please evacuate your units immediately!”

This was what woke me up around 9:30am last Saturday. My God, there’s a fire in our building. Where’s my boy?

“Gats, nasan si Manu?”

“Nasa baba na. Tara na.”

I lept off the bed and went straight to the bathroom. I can’t believe this is actually happening! Good thing my unit is insured. Goodness, I’ve nothing underneath this shirt! Just gonna grab my bathrobe. I need to splash some water on my face so I would look a bit decent. I’ll gargle some of this Betadine too. No I don’t have time to wear those (jewelries)!

“Kel, let’s go.”

“Ok.” Hmmm… What to grab? Wallet. Cellphone. Brush. My heart was about to leap off my chest now. I have to go. I can’t bring anything else anymore. Where are my eyeglasses? Darn, I have to go out now!

“Si Manu?”

“Nasa baba na kanina pa.”

“Ok.” Good my Melissa’s are here. At least I have nice shoes. Where’s my son?

I was finally able to calm down when I saw Manu at the lobby. We were guided to the open area where the fire trucks and police personnel were already preparing. Most of the residents have already gathered at the open space, some with big bags in hand, some with nothing in tow. Gosh, I can’t believe I am out in public with only my bathrobe on! At least I have cute shoes.

Then one of the residents, who is an active member of the community, approached my husband, and said, “Ginawa namin ito na surprise to simulate an actual fire emergency situation….”

HUWAAAAAT?!!!!

I almost had a heart attack because of this! Not to mention that I also had allowed my neighbors to see me in bedroom clothes! !@#$%^!!!!! Oh well. Can’t do anything about it now. At least I had my cute shoes on.

    Kelly, panalo ang post mo na ito! Kitang kita ang pagiging fashionista mo! Hahaha! Shoes muna ang inalala before any impt docs?! At aba, naghilamos pa talaga! Parang aatakihin na rin ako sa puso while reading your post, gusto kitang batukan para sabihin na “Kelly, where is your bag including all impt docs?!”
    Buti na lang drill lang girl!

  25. by Kelly , on March 5 2008 @ 11:34 am

     

    naku jody sa totoo lang i didn’t worry about the documents na (napaisip tuloy ako na i should really have all my impt. docs in a bag) mas inisip ko pa yung itsura ko. lukaret noh? haha
