Just in Time
My father had extreme back pain one day and skipped work.
I had just showered and was about to sit in bed and do my nails when he told my mom that he was going to go get a shot in his back because the pain was unbearable.
I have to mention that after I shower, I DO NOT MOVE from the house, like ever. But that day, I had a feeling that I should go to the pharmacy with my dad.
Five minutes after we left the house, on August 4, 2020, the Beirut explosion happened. The only damage to our house was in my room, where huge shards of glass landed exactly where my head would have been.
Four windows also landed right where my dad was parked. I still can’t believe that I was lucky enough to leave my room in time and not die.
