I could've died

This is Monday morning; while you guys are getting ready/on the way to school, I'm staying at home with my bad stomachache. I'm not going to school for the 1st two periods, but I'll have to go there for my math test in the afternoon.

So I got up in the morning, took a shower in pain, and suddenly the fire alarm sounded. Following that was the hastely footsteps in the hallway and little kids were yelling and screaming. I was in such pain I didn't even want to move, didn't even bother; plus I didn't smell anything weird so I decided to stay inside. The alarm was very annoying, it continued about 5 minutes then I heard the siren distantly. Few seconds after, the firefighters were here, and as I looked out through the window, I saw nearly all the residents in my apartment standing outside looking upwards to which I assume is the 5th floor - the one that I live on. I didn't bother to see what was going on, but I did see a few firefighters putting on their suits and walking into the main lobby leisurely. Then I sat down wanted to check my email and soon the fire alarm stopped sounding. Looking out again, there're five fire trucks and a few police cars; only a few people left standing.

Maybe I could've died. Who knows.
