6:54:00 PM
Sunog
Dax
The clock striked 6:00am. Against all my emotions and body rhythm, I woke up lazily to cook. Walking half-eyed opened, I almost stepped on my nephews who were sleeping flat in the sala. I could have just bought cooked almusal in a nearby store but i was reminded that last night, john dale requested hotdogs for breakfast. My thoughts should be awaken now so i reached for the kettle to boil water for my coffee and frying pan to start frying. I was not finished yet peeling the plastic covering of the hotdogs when a flame appeared at the backside of the stove. My voice can be as loud as thunder when i am pissed off with john dale but that moment, i felt i swallowed my tounge. i cannot scream but i was murmuring "sunog".
i was opted to run to the room where my kumags are peacefully sleeping, oblivious to the tragedy nobody has ever prepared to happen. but on a second thought, i told myself that i didn't have to panic. that i could save lives not of that my children only but also my nephews and sis in law buried in their deep sleep.
and i switched off the stove as well as the swith of the lpg. the flame was still there but since i was already confident that the harm has been prevented, i screamed at the top of my lungs. just to release the tension i think. but still nobody woke up.
"hay... malilitson tong mga taong to kung natuloy ang sunog ," i said to myself.
then niño came in. he went to his mommy to look for the uniform john dale took off yday.
and praised me.
thank god nakapag-isip pa ko.
so i went to buy cooked spaghetti for jd while niño was fixing the stove. when he was done, he told me to continue cooking the hotdogs.
NO WAY.
