The flames light up the midnight sky with an eerie glow. A crowd gathers as a mother frantically shouts, "Someone save my baby!"
“I'm sorry. We're too late. The fire has already engulfed the building,” a fireman says while trying to console the woman.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a man runs into the inferno.
Time passes...
Minutes seem like hours...
Out of the building the man stumbles with something in his arms.
“Is the baby OK?” the man asks as he collapses to the ground.
“She's fine,” a fireman replies.
“Good,” the man whispers as he takes his last breath.
