"THUG! THUG! THUG! THUG"
Someone was knocking at the door so badly that it could just burst at any second.
Stiffiny, who was standing still, lost in her past with the baby in her hands jumped with shocking noise at the door.
" In that kind of strong weather who could..." Stiffiny mumbling to herself, opened the door when her half sentence just lost inside her.
It seemed like the whole town was standing in front of her. So many people were there, all shouting. Stiffiny concentrated as she was unable to understand them because of shouts of thunderstorm.
She focused and her whole world got upsidedown when she realized the situation.
"FIRE! FIRE! THE ORPHANAGE IS ON FIRE!" People were shouting all around but no one dared to come even near to the building.
Stiffiny went outside to check out. The upper floor was on fire and it seemed that fire was so strong that it seemed like the flames were touching the sky. It was a horrible scene of fire during heavy rain that no one had ever seen before.
Stiffiny rushed inside and took the children out of the building as fast as possible. The situation was getting bad to worse.
Children were all crying and screaming because that orphanage was all they have got. It was the only shelter for them and now it was on fire.
Stiffiny took each and every child out of the building in some moments when suddenly an old man asked Stiffiny about Mrs. Squeezer.
" Oh poor Mrs. Squeezer" she whispered to herself with a shivering voice as she just remembered that the old lady was sleeping in her room.
She looked towards the crowd where the people were just making noises instead of even bothering to help her.
She was still holding the baby in her hands when she ran towards the building to help Mrs. Squeezer.
Her head was blowing out. The smoke was now coming on the ground floor as well and it seemed like fire will soon cover the whole building if the firebrigade fail to get there soon.
"I can do this, I have to.." Stiffiny said to encourage herself and stepped inside the lounge from where the stairs go to the first floor.
"I will be back soon, now there is no time to get you outside so wait here sweety" "I have to fulfill my words..." She said gently and put the baby on the sofa on a safe side and ran upstairs.
She could have thought of her own life and safety but she was under debt of Mr.Squeezer and was still determined to do anything for orphanage as she had promised Mr. Squeezer on his deathbed that she will take care of orphanage after him.All these thoughts gave her a new spirit.
She was putting her life in danger but she was as brave as ever.She never thought even once about her own life.
" Wake up!!!"
"Building is on fire!!!" She shouted for Mrs.Squeezer. It was hard as she was coughing badly because of smoke.
" Oh my God" it was all she could say when she just reached the floor. It was a horrible scene. There was high flames everywhere. Even the door of Mrs.Squeezer's room was on fire. She couldnt understand what to do.
Suddely Stiffiny saw Mrs. Squeezer near the window. She was trying to break it down and waving Stiffiny badly for help.She risked her life and ran to help.
She was standing on the last stair and making her strategies when she felt something shining downstairs. Her heart stop beating for a moment on what she was seeing.
She looked once at Mrs.Squeezer who was struggling between life and death and then down at something and returned downstairs with a tear rolling down her cheek.
