burning up

I was spending a relaxing morning watching TV after waking up around brunch time, and all of a sudden I smelled burning and the fire alarms went off.

According to the girl across the hall, an electrical fire started in her oven. I barely had time to put shoes on before we had to evacuate the building. It was warm outside, luckily.

And one of the firefighters that responded was pretty cute, so that was a plus.

a knock at the door

I was trying to decompress by doing yoga after an eventful day, when there is a knock on my door. I answer it to find the firefighter from earlier at my doorstep.

He was asking about the girl across the hall, and if I knew when she would be back. I said that I had no idea, and that I hadn't seen her since the incident this afternoon.

"It will probably be a while."

"Shit." He seems stressed.

"You can hang out here, if you want to wait." I don't know why I said that.

"Really?"

"Sure."

And that is how I got a strange man in my apartment.
