章 89: Change of Date

Clarence opened the weather news online. Bold letters invaded the screen:

SUPER TYPHOON SAMUELA IS HEADING TOWARD NORTHERN PART OF THE PHILIPPINES.

This could be the most devastating storm that ever happened in years in the Philippine islands. Its speed was more than 220 Km/h bringing rain and strong winds.

A week to go and the typhoon chose to pass the wedding venue.

Beauty and Clarence's parents and relatives were in the huge receiving room of the Peres' residence in Alabang. They were having a slight 'panic' meeting.

The people were all sitting anywhere they could place their bottoms on. Some were on the big white sofa. Others were on the stairs. A few were on the carpeted floor.
