The date when this thing happened
is not really clear. I cant remember the exact date of this scenario so I wont
write it here anymore. It was a dark, cloudy, frightening afternoon for us
because of the storm Ondoy. My aunt and I was in the house watching the rain
our hardly on the street. We slowly noticed that the water on the street was
getting higher and higher after ever minute so my aunt got worried and she
quickly dialed the number of my dad to tell him to pick us up because the water
is getting high. My father quickly arrived with his friend, the are both
fighting the strong current that is already above knee. We asked him where’s
the car and he said that he parked it in a higher place. He told me to go first
and watch the car and to avoid getting stock at the flood. When I was already
inside the car, I was watching the flood approach me. It was not long enough
before it reached us so I pulled back the car so it won’t be on the water.
After about 20 minutes, I saw my father, his friend and my aunt. My aunt told
me that the current was so strong that she nearly drown and the water was
breast level already. When everything was in place, we left and went on my
father’s house. There it was more safe and quiet. It’s higher compared to my
aunt’s house so it won’t be easy for the flood to penetrate the house. I
quietly asked the Lord for His protection and gently told Him to stop the storm
because it’s causing a disaster and making the people worry. After 2 hours, the
rain finally stopped, thanks be to God.
