The gift
When the alarm bells in the building rang at full blast, everyone — residents and staff — gazed up on instinct. There was only one reason for this emergency bell would ring, and that was the building was under serious threat. Hence the panic.
Residents evacuated their units while all the staff made sure to assist. Those in the management alerted the authorities to check why the alarm went off. The people outside the building couldn't help but stop in their tracks to look at the building, wondering if there was a fire or if it was a different emergency.
Meanwhile…
Bear was on his way into the lobby from the parking space when the uproarious emergency alarm went off. His steps slowed down, entering the other entrance of the lobby. As soon as he reached his destination, the first thing he saw was the staff sprinting in different directions.
'What's going on?' he wondered but didn't find the need to rush himself.
