(Alex) we decided to stay in our hometown for a bit, Eliza decided to follow us a few days later, we stayed at the old house we lived as a child, during our stay the weather wasn't well and there was a typhoon coming in a couple of days, I've lived through a lot of typhoons already and it wasn't something unusual to us anymore, flooding was like a normal thing to us now.
On December 08 we celebrated my birthday by going on beach trip out of town, we all had fun swimming and eating by the beach there, a couple of days later there was a news of a strong typhoon coming our way, just a few days before landfall the winds we're already acting up very badly, I could hear the rustling roof tops rustling through the winds, I thought it would fly off by anytime soon,
-THE DAY ON THE TYPOON-
(Alex) on the day when the typhoon came, the winds we're already acting up badly now, the rain started pouring out heavily, we got scared because the storm was getting stronger by the minute, by afternoon the typhoon came with stronger winds and stronger rains, the waves on the sea across our home was rising up and started flooding the area, but to my surprise cami stayed calm and kept her patience.
By the morning time, when everything seems clear now, we went outside and clear up the damages done by the typhoon, this was the first one that was this strong since a while now, a lot of homes we're damaged around us, thankfully our home wasn't that damage but by looking at other houses around us, I felt very bad watching it all crumble.
Days after the typhoon, there wasn't no electricity, no water, no data signal, we we're on survival mode, we slept on a tent throughout the night, that experience tested our capabilities to the core, but throughout all of this, cami surprises me by the day on how helpful and resilient she is, her patience was on point and continued to help out the best she can, just by watching her help out made me mesmerize on she is like this, one night while we we're going to bed I ask her
*Alex* do you ever get feel tired of doing all of those thing?
*cami* to be honest...no, it's a new experience for me but I'm doing pretty well actually, and also I like helping them out.
*Alex* you know you don't have to do all of that just to impress them right?
*cami* Alex...just me being here has already impress them enough...might as well show them what I can do
*Alex* *smiles and pats her shoulder* you've impressed them enough
*cami* hehe thanks
(Alex) despite of this experience of a lifetime was testing us to our core, we still learned something from each other on this trip, after everything was clear we got a flight back to Kyoto and went home, that experience during a typhoon the true of each other and both our capabilities in life, I'm lucky to have someone like her, I can't wait for us to get married already
