After quickly checking the kids, I breathe in deeply feeling beyond relief that none of them are hurt. Anele and Stella look scared and Iris is crying. So I quickly lift her up, talking to all of the kids. “No worries girls. She you are okay, I am okay… it was just a little shake”.
Iris has already stopped crying, so I put her back in the seat and I smile at Anele. “Stay here with the babies okay ? Watch out for them. I have to check on uncle Bren”.
“Okay… I will”. She says, grabbing a tight hold of the stroller.
I run closer, getting hit by a piece of flying wood when the stairs collapse. Luckily most people have already run to safety before it falls, but I do see a few getting buried in the debris.
There are others there trying to help, so I focus on the platform, ho
