I saw a woman covering her face in shock across the road. I saw onlooking men facing my side of the building. I looked down from my balcony and I saw a family coming out from their home to find out the noise. Within 30 seconds, they went back home and I went back to mine because from my angle, I couldn't see anything.
This morning when I woke up, I was told, two women fell down from their balcony and both died. The din etched a mark in my head and the deaths officially marked the third jump-off-balcony case at my place this year.
Perhaps it was a good thing, I didn't see anything last night.

GEORGE TOWN: One of the three Vietnamese women who fell from the 11th floor of an apartment in an attempt to escape a police raid on Tuesday has survived despite having severe fractures.
The 25-year-old woman is in stable condition at the Penang Hospital.
The three were believed to have been involved in vice activities and police recovered pills, believed to be sexual stimulants, from the bags belonging to the two who died.
The women, aged 23 and 33, died on the spot after they slipped while climbing out of the apartment unit in River Road here through a window and landed some 30m below.
Their bodies were found in a pool of blood in the open space at the apartment block while the woman who survived landed in a garbage bin in the 9.50pm incident.
