One evening last week my and I were sitting quietly at
home. Suddenly we heard a loud bang. I supposed that the
old lady in the flat above ours was moving the furniture
about. My wife was afraid that the noise would wake the
baby. She turned down the TV and moment latter we heard
someone calling for help.
I run upstairs. The old ladys door was shut but I could see
smoke coming through the letter box and under the door
and smell something burning. Ring the fire brigade . I
should down to my wife.
I banged on the door but the old lady took a long time
answer. I was turning over in my mind the idea of breaking
the door down when she finally appeared.

I was having a bath, she said, when the water heater in

the kitchen blew up. And I was getting dressed when you
knocked.
I took her down stairs to our flat. Smoke was pouring out of
the kitchen and the heater was in flames. Just then I heard
a fire engine arriving outside and the heavy footsteps of the
firemen on the stairs. Its in here, I shouted, You turned
up promptly, I must say.
When I got back to our flat, my wife was making the old
lady a cup of tea, Soon afterwards, the fire chief came in to
ask a few questions. It turned out that the fire was not very
serious and the firemen were already putting it out. When
they left, my wife went up with the old lady to help her
clean up the mess.
When she returned, my wife remarked : Its all right now.
Nothing was damaged except the water heater. But wasnt
it lucky that baby slept through the noise ?
She took the teacups into the kitchen and I heard her
scream and the cups crash to the floor. When I got there,
water dripping from the ceiling and forming a pool on the
floor. The baby woke up at least and began to cry.
