When Eddie saw the smoke, he knew he had to act fast.


It was Eddie’s winter vacation, and he went Canada to spend his vacation.
He was staying in a five-star hotel in Canada. The weather was very cold so the heaters were turned on all day. The hotel manager had strictly advised him not to turn on heaters at night. Unfortunately, one night, Eddie forgot to turn it off.
As he , in the morning, opened his eyes, he felt something  burning. He was suspicious and suspected something wrong he had done. Without looking around, he ran downstairs within the blink of an eye.

“There is a fire in my room! ” cried Eddie, as he entered in Manager’s office.

“Fire! How it’s possible!” enquired the Hotel Manager.

“Yes! there is, the room is burning entirely! ” Cried Eddie, “the hotel will burn!”

Now the manager was frightened and started shouting ,”everyone must leave the hotel! “.

There was a huge crowd. People were going here and there. Firefighters and rescue teams were called. Finally, everyone moved out of the hotel. The firefighters entered the hotel and went to the third floor where Eddie’s room was. To the firefighters, it was not likely that something is burning in the hotel but when they entered Eddie’s room, they saw a cloud of smoke coming out of the window from a huge company that burns fossil fuels.

Moral of the Story: Before taking any unprecedent steps in life, we better examine a situation carefully.
