Sounds like a hypothetical situation to me... I'm guessing?
It depends on how much you feel worried about the situation. Experiencing more anxiety or discomfort generally means you should be treating it as the "worst case scenario" over other times.
Otherwise, it's really up to you...
I like to try to presume that things are what I think they are and not have to think of alternatives... but that's just me.
