Have you experienced of being worried about your family? This story of mine is about an appalling experience caused by a dreadful thing and brought the whole community into one of its biggest part. And now let me tell you about one of my most unforgettable experience.
It was a great day to start in the 7th day of March and I too was very keyed up to go to school and learn another lesson there. I was excited because a workshop is waiting for me and for the UPSTAGE team. They said that we’ll see a lot of foreigners if we’ll partake in the said activity. It was 3:00 PM when we reached at the Conference Hall to see the foreigners and get to know their company. Spending the whole afternoon with them is a really great cause to enjoy my entire day. In that activity, we learned to dance and got to know their own courses of their schools. There is a course in Digital Camera learning, course in professional dancing and many, many more.
The activity adjourned and I started to go back to our school. In that moment, I noticed a very huge smoke coming from an unidentified place which I happened to ignore. Few minutes later, my classmate asked me to go with him for a cause that he wants to buy food and he is hungry. When he saw the approachable smoke coming from a place, he began to ask the vendor near of where the gigantic smoke came from. She replied. She said that it a blaze of fire started in a place where called “Mantuyong, Mandaue City”. I was very dazed when I heard that word. It’s where I and my family are currently living in. I quickly called my grandmother. But there was no any sign which I never noticed. I was very anxious of what is happening in our place. I swiftly ran out the campus and rode a jeepney. Even in the Ayala Center, I wasted no time in every step that I make. When I got a ride, I started praying and hoping that m family would be fine in that time. Then suddenly, a woman asked me of what school do I came from. We embarked on many things that developed our being close. Then, she noticed my T-shirt which marks their company uniform. She initiated questions again of whose relative of mine owned that. I retorted that it came from my aunt. I was surprised when I knew that she is currently an officemate of my aunt. Since the vehicle had just stopped near the San Miguel Corporation Building which was near enough towards our home, we just decided to walk towards the danger zone. Just then I found out that the fire was starting just far enough to grasp our place. But when I go further on the place, I bared in my mind that it was too big that it get through near our place. In the middle of our pace, I have heard already the deafening sirens of the big fire trucks and the rowdy wails of the people seeing their own houses burning. I tried to locate my parents but I can’t. I also tried to find my brother and auspiciously I found him and he’s in safe hands. I tried to calm myself. Just then by that moment, I saw the very massive effect of the fire. They say that it was caused by a gas tank which exploded and resulted into a whopping glare of flame and wrecked up almost half the city. And the fire prolonged until it reached and burned again the main market. We were all nervous when it all suddenly came into darkness. By then, many people are still going to their burning houses and getting what things that they can afford to rescue. They said that it all ended only at 9:00 PM which made everyone settle down.
After the heart-breaking experience, all of us thanked God for saving our lives and also our properties. We also prayed to all who lost their properties and loved ones. We really are lucky that He still could give us a chance to live and get pleasure the most important thing that He gave to us, the LIFE.
