The Betrayal

I have made a short post last night about how I was so inactive here in read.cash and I apologize for that. I was just pre-occupied this past few days because of our house. We are actually renovating the roof of our house.

The house where we are staying is actually the family house of my father-in-law which underwent a lot f renovation, from its original state which is made of bamboo to the current one which is concrete. But since the family is getting bigger and no one seems to like leave the house (which includes us.LOL), my father-in-law decided to renovate the house again. My husband along with his cousins had already finished constructing the walls so my inlaw decided to change next the top of our house. My father-in-law was quite confident in removing the top of our house since rain is very rare during this month. So when the trushes of the house was already fixed, we were just waiting for my brother-in-law to send the money so we can order the roofing sheets of the house. It took my brother-in-law though to send the money but we didn't worry much. However, a low pressure area was spotted in the Philippine Area of Responsibility. But the LPA was seen nowhere near our province so we just shrugged the thought of it. However, something unexpected happened. Thursday night, while we were watching television, I suddenly heard tiny raindrops. And I thought that it was just a drizzle and that it won't get strong. But i was strong the drizzle became strong and it eventually rain. It was raining inside our house. It was a good thing that I was quick enough to move our cabinets and drawers on the other room of our house. Luckily, the rain stopped after 30minutes. But the ceiling in our room was drenched with water that it was dripping inside,so we don't have a choice but to sleep downstairs. My husband and my father-in-law decided to put back the old roofing sheets as a temporary cover the following day. Thinking that it won't rain again, they just place the sheets on top of each rooms, which was a very wrong decision. On that night, it rained once again but this time it wasnt just a short one. It rained the entire night. My husband and my father-in-law was busy putting more sheets on the trushes while we were busy moving some boxes and other stuffs downstairs since they're already getting wet. We weren't able to sleep that night since we were busy making sure that we won't get flooded inside the house but it still got flooded inside. Water was all over the place, there are water inside our rooms and our beddings got wet.It was a good thing though that none of our clothes and appliances got wet.

Seeing our house in such a mess is very upsetting. We become so complacent that the weather would cooperate with us, instead it betrayed us. It caused us almost a huge damage if we weren't fast enough to act.

The sky today is brighter than yesterday,giving us a new day. Hopefully, the roofing sheets would arrive sooner so that we won't be worrying anymore about any rain to come. And thank you for reading this article, though it didn't do you any good, and the title is an example of click-bait 🤣🤣😉😉
