Glorietta Mall Blast

It was a horrible friday noon happened in Glorietta mall. A bomb blast at exactly 1:40 PM (as they say). During this time, Kurdt and I is already preparing our stuff to meet my mum in law in Megamall. I received a phonecall and text message as well from Nicko telling me about the incident in Glorietta that i wasn't aware of. At first, i didn't put much attention into it as he said that it was a Gas leackage in one of the resto. So i though that less casualties and damages happened. The husband keeps on asking me if we will still be going to the mall with Kurdt. I said yes, not realizing how dangerous it is going with our lil kid (still thinking it was just a gas leackage).

Then late afternoon when Nicko confirmed that it was a C4 bomb planted that caused deaths and casualties in Glorietta. We are already in the mall with our son. I just prayed that nothing will happen to us. He picked us up after his working hours. We bought what we need for Kurdt's bday but still no holloween costume yet for the Trick or Treat next week ;(

Then a day after of the Glorietta Blast, i just saw the casualties in the television and how bad the gorietta was after the explosion. The damage is a shock! What i was thinking during that time??!! Maybe we are present in Glorietta that afternoon if Megamall is not on SALE. I loved the stores located in Glorietta 2. If im not mistaken, G2 second floor is where the baby stuff stores are located that i usually visit after working hours or when we had a visit in the mall. Big & Small,Spin,Orange Juice, Enfant, Chicco, Ginger Snaps, K.O.B, Baby Guess and so on are all in the Glorietta 2, 2nd floor. OMG!!!

So sad that there are people who could plant those bombs that they knew civillians will suffer ;( How could they do those acts?

Hope Kids like my son can still play in any place they would want to safely....

Is there any safe place now???
