96 A Bigger Boat

"Anwar!" cried out a voice. It was my father.

The downpour was still going on, and our house was starting to fill with water. Floods aren't really a strange thing any more but the fact that this may have something to do with Nimble makes this particular flood all too different.

Furniture started to rise, and we've heard voices from the neighborhood that fish and other sea animals are starting to appear within the floods.

At first we were skeptical of it considering many people here indulged in gossip and rumors towards people with little connection to them.

But as soon as a school of fish swam past our house, it was enough for us to see it to believe it. RIght now however, I had to get my father to safety. Mother was visiting her friend's, and even then I don't know how it is for her.

I just hope she's okay.

My father and I went onto the couch, where the water current, despite being calm, was moving us forward.

Nerve started to get to me, but at the very least we could get a clear view of outside. The water was knee to stomach deep.

My father and I felt a force bumping into our couch. It started to tip the couch. I saw a fin coming out of the water.

Impossible.

The shark uesd its nose to bump into the couch, capsizing the couch as my father and I both fell into the water. The shark crashed into my stomach with its nose, as I opened my eyes in the water and swiftly turned to grab its fin.

It tried to wobble me off, and it did for a moment, before it turned to meet with those killer eyes. It then ran away however, after a few second of silence. I noticed a shade covering over me, eventhough I was in the water.

I turned to see a giant school of face in formation of a scary face. The fishes, seeing me, rounded up together to form a hand, and proceeded to bring me back to the couch where it was now upside again, my father looking at the fish putting me next to him.

"How?" he asked. I told him it's best not to question, since everything going on was absurd already, then he added. "The couch won't suffice. We need something bigger. A bigger boat maybe."

Now where did I hear those words before?
