People are enjoying the warm evening in the beach. I roared at them to vacate the area immediately. “Run for your life!”, I thundered at the eager tourist with her backpack. No one is listening to me. The shore line is receding. The walkway which is usually covered with water now appears as if it is separating two lakes. Can’t these people understand that something is wrong? How can I tell these people that these are their last few minutes on earth? How can I tell them that I am the tsunami who will gulp them in a few minutes!
