CHAPTER 3<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u202fPeople were wailing and sobbing as they saw their homes break apart and crumble to the ground. People were terribly injured with dead bodies everywhere like they meant nothing; like they weren\u2019t people with who once had a normal life with friends and family. Really terrible, really. My heart stopped for a second as I saw the place that was once home for me turn into something indescribable. I didn\u2019t waste any time in scurrying through what our living room was once. I cried out loud, glancing around,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMUM\u201d!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cDAD\u201d!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u202fI called with hopes of getting a response. My parents were both crushed chests down to death. I rushed to them sobbing. I had to get to them despite our home suddenly collapsing around me. I put my hands on their cheeks sobbing.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGod, why oh no please\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cwhy\u201d?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I screamed as I felt a pang of pain in my chest. Now I\u2019m all alone in this word with my parents were gone and I was an only child. I would have to be smart and strategic to stay safe. Never in a million years would I have imagined myself in a situation like this. I stayed with them till the little left of what was once our home begin crumbling.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI love you with all my heart\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI hope you\u2019re both at peace and together\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I said, as I kissed both their foreheads and shut their eyes close as I ran for my life as the home slowly collapsed around me, burring them with it. That day, both the world and I changed as I knew I was scarred for life and there was no going back to completely normal for me.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
