Days full of grief with parents
I came again cause I'm absent for two days. On the other morning, there was a sad news which make me feel so pity simultaneously full of grief cause one of our neighbor went viral cause their daughter drown near in a riverbank. No one knows and withness the incident except her friends. You might asking why they didn't ask for help?
Let me tell a story about it. It was a sunny day. Her mother was one of the BHW. Her mother was so busy in processing papers for the release cash assistance of the victims of typhoon Odette. She conducted house to house and let every part of the household sign in the papers. She doesn't know that time was the end of the life of her daughter.
Her daughter was very salient that it has the freedom where she want to go. This time together with her friends they went to a riverbank. The river was quite deep cause backhoe dig deeper on a certain area. The daughter's age was around 8 to 9 years old. Expected she doesn't know how to swim. The water that time was high cause of tide and has a strong current.
Now, this kid was putting herself in jeopardize cause they swim despite the fact that the said area is so dangerous cause it has a strong current and deep. Many people says that there are huge whirlpool traversing from one side of the river. Her daughter and friends went there are swim, they didn't know that that one of them were left.
As the her colleagues said the girl push by a slight current until it's body went in the middle of the river. Her colleagues are naive and doesn't even notice that their friend was drowning. All of them were just watching until the girl disappeared cause a strong current below the water that causes hander to drown, she can't contend cause it's strong pull. The incident happened with the withness of naive colleagues. They went at home.
The mother doesn't know what happen to his daughter until she noticed that the evening is nearer and her daughter doesn't went home. She asked his colleagues where his daughter and they've responded: "We went to riverbank to swim until we saw her drowning." The mother was shocked cause the naive 5 year child spontaneously talked about what happened. The mother have speculation that her child was already dead cause it didn't went the whole night.
Strong evidence her colleagues spoke what happened. When the child tells a story it is 90% true cause a child can't make a lie story. All they say are base only on what they observed. The mother was so nervous. She just contacted the coastguard and try to find her daughter in the riverbank. Many people from the same barrio went their and help also to find the daughter.
Two hours later the coastguard found the dead cold body of her daughter. It was found 4 meters under the freshwater. The mother was crying like she can't believe it happened to her daughter. All what her colleagues said was true. They are just naive. How can they beg help unless they have a mature mind.
The dead body was branged into the house and the mother starting to pour all her tears. It was the saddest moments that I've heard. Actually when I try to wrote this story I asked their neighbors what actually happened. I can't imagine how painful it was to the part of the mother.
Final thoughts
Never trust your child when they roam around especially in a far area. Don't allow especially when you know that there are treats to their safety especially if the area is hazardous. Stream, sea, and other fascinating place that can put their life in danger, don't allow them to go their when their companion were just the same on their age. Always watch the activities of your child.
Oh my. That's just heartbreaking. I guess kids should be taught to ask for help if someone needs it.
