“FIRE!!!”
“HELP!
PLEASE!”
“CALL
A FIREMAN! OH MY GOD!”
Panic voices can be heard at the Wozny
household! The whole family is trying to stop the fire. Gwen having the brave
trait grab a fire extinguisher and Henry also grab one. They try to subdue the
fire that is trying wreak havoc on their living room.
For almost 30 minutes the fire blaze. It
burnt to ashes their new sofa. Holden has also grabbed an extinguisher to help
his son and wife to put out the fire. Neighbors had called the fireman, which
are too late to help them.
“OH MY GOD! I’m burning!!!” Gwen shrieked.
Holden hold the nozzle of the fire
extinguisher and direct it to Gwen. He had to save his wife!
Gwen was saved, but it left her with burns
all over the body.
After that Holden had to bring her to the
hospital to check out on her burns. Gwen is not seriously injured but it would
take a while for her burns to be healed. The doctor advised that she stayed for
the night for observation. Holden went home to tend the gifts while Henry
offered to stay to watch over his mom for the rest of the night.
Holden stayed up all night to clean the
burnt couch. He calls every 4 hours to check on Gwen’s condition. Gwen had to turn
off her cellphone to stop Holden from calling her.
Around 6:30 am. He decided to cook
breakfast for Lizzie, as she was going to school.
“Oh!I’m feeling woozy….”
Then Holden fell on the floor due to
exhaustion. Lizzie is sitting in the dining room saw her father on the floor.
She ran to him. Trembling, as she approached her father. He snored loudly.
Lizzie snickered. She went upstairs and got a pillow and blanket for his dad.
Lizzie decided to cook breakfast for
herself while her dad is taking a nap, at the floor. She decided to cook her
favorite blueberry muffin.
“Princess, I’m sorry”
Lizzie looked around and she saw her dad
already up.
“It’s okay Daddy. I know you’re tired. C’mon
let’s eat. I cooked blueberry muffin for us.” Lizzie happily said.
Lizzie talked about the fire last night.
Holden is just staring on the wall while her daughter talked about it. He’s
thinking deeply about what could have happened, he almost lost her wife and
this house.
Holden called the baby sitter to watch over
the twins. Then accompany Lizzie to school and directly went to the hospital.
Gwen is already released and they decided to go home to rest for the day.
***************************************
The day after the fiery encounter with
fire, this day doesn’t go too well also for the Wozny household.
While Gwen resting, Holden is watching tv
and sitting in their new couch, same style with the previous burnt couch, the
t.v was broken.
“Aaarrrrrgghhh” Holden shouted with
disbelief. He’s anxiety level shoot up with all the stressful events that have
happened. Lizzie tried her best to calm down her dad.
“I’m really sorry princess, daddy is just
really stress with these stuff” Holden apologizing.
“It’s okay daddy. We’ll be okay!” Lizzie
smiled and kissed her dad at the cheek. “I’ll be doing my homework, you want me
to help you?”
Henry is trying his best to be a best
brother, but right now Janie’s cry is really irritating him. He’s just lucky
that Josie is still not awake and having a duet with her.
He picked up Janie and gave her a bottle of
milk to drink. Janie stops for a while and drinks her milk.
“Yenk yu!” Janie said to her big brother.
Henry patted her head and looked at the
window. He still remembers the argument he had awhile ago with Raven, his
bestfriend.
***********************************************
“I
need you. Where have you been?” Henry shouted at Raven.
“I’m
just with the Curries, why are you suddenly at rage with me? You called me and
meet me here to just shout at me?” Raven replied, looking at me with shocked
eyes.
“So
you’re with the family of the vampires! While you’re happily hanging out with
those blood drinkers, my mom almost lost her life!” Tears are starting form in
my eyes.
“Wha?”
Raven startled with what I said to her.
“I
need my best buddy and you just left me hanging. Go and hang out with
monkey-looking blood drinkers.” After saying that I left her without looking
back.
*************************************************
“Henry..”
I saw my mom knocking at the door. She set me back to
the real world with that knock.
“Hey mom. What is it?” I asked her.
“We’ll
go the park to rest. Let’s go refresh ourselves.”
“Okay.” I shuddered while thinking ogf going outside. I’m
not into going outside. I just like to be here or just inside of a place.
Outside is a dangerous place. But I know my family needs to be together
especially in a time like this.
The Wozny family decided to go to the park and rest. Whatever happened
last night is a challenge that would make their family stronger. Holden looked
at his family. He never imagined it would get big like this and it’s a blessing
for him. He would do everything to keep them together and be with them. The
fire just made him be reminded that everything in life is a blessing. He would
continue to be strong especially in the days ahead.
“Finish every
day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and
absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a
new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be
encumbered with your old nonsense.” Ralph Waldo Emerson (Poet)
Looking for the
new tomorrow for the Wozny family! See you next chapter!
