The Trail of Damages in my Wake
Have you ever experienced the feeling where after you have entered a place and everyone there starts really want to tell you stuff. Stuff that happened on and after your Journey. And those stuff, which you know it was true because, you saw it AFTER it happened and it was about 100 metres away.
Being Uprooted
Case in point was the huge backlog of cars on my way back. There was a big tree which got uprooted by a freak storm and the road was wet. Earlier, I thought nothing of it since those big, thick bolts of lighting were striking away from my destination.

| But it was OK as they could reverse the car out |

| Nearer to my destination, the Restaurant suffered the same. Even their sign board is crooked. |
The Morning After
The funny thing was, it happened while I was away. Almost at the same time, my Wife who was at her School, saw that one of the roof was blown off and on her Journey passing Mid-Valley, she saw the Traffic Cones converging in the middle of the road. And me? I was driving to the Engineering Shop with nothing much exciting apart from the occasional mf who cut into my lane.
But during my Drive back, it was another matter because on my Left, there was thunder and lighting. Usually, these lightning bolts would just light up the sky for a brief instance but here, they lasted for nearly one second and the bolts looked strong.

| This morning, the same silver hatchback was back again. I guess there is nothing serious, except maybe some cosmetic damage. |

| But hang on, the electrical box has been torn off. And when I passed by their main entrance, it was dark. I just hope that they switched everything off and not suffered any further damages. |
