A Dreadful Accident
The adrenaline rose in me. This was all my fault. I
shouted at her to try the door again and helped
her to push against it. The door flew open and we
rushed in. I didn’t even think twice as I followed
her into the kitchen. Although the fire had
definitely spread, fortunately, it was not that big.
We quickly put it out by pouring the water that
was left in our buckets over the carpet. The smoke
from the dying fire burned our eyes and started to
bring on a cough. My throat was also feeling dry.
My mom opened the door to let fresh air pass
through the room.
