It was Saturday 11:56am, 25th April 2015. That time we hostel kids were all watching a movie in the TV room. Suddenly the light went out. We all woke up from the place we were sitting. We planned to play basketball. But suddenly an earthquake came and all my friends ran except me and one small brother and sister were left in the TV room. I took both of them and ran outside towards the basketball ground. We all went to the basketball ground. When the earthquake stopped, we went to the football ground. Our hostel in charge told us to pray to God. I was worried about Mitrataa family and I called Jalpa sister (the hostel in charge of Mitrataa foundation hostel) but there wasn’t network because of the earthquake. Our hostel gate and wall were destroyed and all the people outside came into our football ground. We all sat together and shared our feelings with each other about the earthquake. After 2:00 o’clock we ate our lunch and after that we went to the ground. Again at 4:00 o’ clock we ate some biscuits and we entertained our small sisters and brothers by singing a song because they were very scared. We played basketball and football up to 7:00 o’clock and we ate our dinner. I again tried to call Jalpa sister and luckily she received the call and she told me that at the hostel everyone was ok. We planned to sleep in the assembly hall because everyone said that there will be another earthquake at 12:00 o’clock, so that night we didn’t sleep because of fear. Finally at 2:00 o’clock we slept. I will never forget that day as well as night.
