"Dong dong dong dong....... Fire! Fire! Leave the house immediately!" the fire alarm turns off!
What's wrong? What happen? Ozzy is barking loudly in the kitchen... I picked up my bag and ran directly to the kitchen..and called Mary for help.
There's nothing wrong in the house, no cooking, no smoke... while I am checking every room in the house, my host dad, Eivind call me. I tried to reset the alarm according to Eivind's instruction... Oh, so scarry! I wonder what happenned just now and the house is so big and many rooms to check. Luckily Ozzy is with me, my dear mate.
15 minutes later, the efficient Boxford Firemen arrived. They checked the house and told me : "We found (pause for a second) nothing." "That's the bad thing." another fireman said. "So if next time the fire alarm turns off again, just leave the house, and wait for only 10 - 20 minutes for us to come. Dont reset the fire alarm as we can't trace the problems because everything will gone when the alarm is being reset." Oh, I learnt the same when I am staying in the campus hostel in UK - - Leave the building immediately. How come I forgot?? I was too nervous! My heart beat increase XX times than normal while the alarm turns off... where got time to think?
After everything is okay, the fireman leave the house. I wish to take a pictures of them...but so shine leh.... I am so sorry, I didn't take it... so , no pics attached
