Last minutes of terrified Jessica

-

JESSICA: There’s nowhere we can go... Can you hurry up before something happens? Can you hurry up, please? I’m begging you. OPERATOR: They are. They’re right below you but you need to keep yourself safe. JESSICA: What floor are you on? What floor are you on? OPERATOR: They’re down below you. They’re fighting the fire from below you, okay? They’re making their way up... JESSICA: No they’re not! OPERATOR: They are, I promise you, they’re all below you. *** JESSICA: I can’t breathe. OPERATOR: You need to get down low on the ground. Can you get low? Everyone get low on the floor. JESSICA: [calling out] Everyone get low! OPERATOR: Okay, good. Try and stop as much of the smoke coming into the room. JESSICA: Please can you hurry up? OPERATOR: We are, we’re coming as quick as we can. JESSICA: No one’s coming up! OPERATOR: I promise you, they’re right below you, they’re making their way up through the fire... *** OPERATOR: Tell me how you’re doing. Keep talking to me. JESSICA: I can’t. OPERATOR: You can’t? I can hear your breathing’s getting a bit heavy. Take deep, slow breaths far away from the smoke... JESSICA: There’s fire in here! OPERATOR: Where’s it coming through? JESSICA: Oh my God! OPERATOR: Listen, where’s it coming in through? JESSICA: The window. *** JESSICA: I can’t breathe. OPERATOR: Jessica, are the flames coming into the room? JESSICA: Yes! I can’t breathe... I can’t breathe no more!
