00:00The residents of Lumicas were not affected by the floods here in TM Calong Elementary School in Lipa City.
00:09They are residents who came here from Barangay Balintawak where they experienced floods.
00:16Their houses were flooded so they were forced to evacuate.
00:19And now, the sky is getting brighter. It looks like the sun is rising.
00:25Let's find out from the residents here, if the sun will rise, will you go home?
00:30Yes, we can. But we are always waiting for the barangay captain's notice because we get advice from them.
00:41But do you remember the LPAs?
00:43Of course, because we are in the creek.
00:46Just like one of our colleagues, his house was hit by the flood.
00:49His house was hit by the flood.
00:50His belongings were washed away.
00:53There are more than 100 families here.
00:56Almost 500 individuals are currently living here in TM Calong Elementary School.
01:04They were forced to evacuate because their houses were flooded.
01:10Others can't sleep there because it's wet.
01:14So, they are separated by their families.
01:18This is Brian Osmilio. He is a Bedridden.
01:27He was one of the last people to be evacuated.
01:31Brian, what happened?
01:34My siblings were shocked.
01:37Shocked?
01:38Yes.
01:39So, you were the last one to be evacuated?
01:40Yes.
01:41It's good that you weren't hurt or in danger.
01:48For me, during the flood, my siblings came and told me that they were left behind.
02:03So, you were the last one to be evacuated?
02:05Yes.
02:06Okay, your siblings didn't challenge you, you just survived.
02:15First of all, I thank God that I don't have a heart attack.
02:20How are you doing here?
02:22I'm okay.
02:23Are you worried because there are storms coming?
02:27Are you going back there or are you staying here?
02:30In my mind, if my brother wants,
02:35he's the one who's taking care of me.
02:37Oh, you?
02:38What's your plan if you're on the streets?
02:41Because the weather is getting better,
02:43but there are still storms coming.
02:45What's your plan?
02:47I'll go back to my house and fix it.
02:51Fix it? What happened to your house?
02:53In front of my house, it's broken.
02:56And also the back of my house.
02:58Ah, okay.
02:59So, you'll clean first?
03:01But you won't sleep there?
03:03No, not yet.
03:04But what about Brian?
03:06Yes, he'll stay here.
03:07That's the situation of our countrymen here.
03:11They're still worried.
03:12Even though, as I said, it's getting brighter.
03:14Actually, what we can see outside,
03:17the sky is getting brighter.
03:18But they're still worried
03:20if they'll go back to their abandoned houses
03:23that were flooded.
03:24Because there's a storm,
03:27there are low-pressure areas,
03:28and they're saying that Christine might come back.
03:30So, you know, our countrymen are still worried
03:33about their plans if they'll go back.
03:35They're waiting for their barangay captains' advice.
