Trang 1It was early in the evening and I was
having dinner, when suddenly I heard a terrible
noise and felt the floor moving! It was earthquake!
I got up from the table and left the house
quickly I was so frightened;I started shaking At
that moment, I saw Chloe, my roommate, outside
the building I told her I was too scared to go back
into the flat in case it started shaking again
Chloe and I decided to go straight to the park
to find a safe place to sit In fact, we spent the
whole night there It was cold, but luckily for us
the Red Cross gave us hot soup and blankets We
stayed in the park for much of the next day
because there were still tremors from time to
time
When we were sure it was safe, we went back
to the flat We were worried because quite a few
of the houses in our area were badly damaged
When we entered the flat, we saw that the
bedrooms windows were broken along with some
ornaments, but nothing more serious than that
I was really tired, but I wanted to stay awake
because I was terrified I thought there might be
another earthquake Chloe, on the other hand, said
she wanted to sleep for a week
