THE ESCAPE 1

Young MUSA

The name was MUSA BIN ABDULLAH. A male 16 years old Bugis boy from unknown family of a fishermen's village in isolated part of Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Like other young Bugis of his age Musa loved the sea very much. His entire young life was spent on the sea activities as a fisherman.

One day he went to fishing in open sea with his 2 cousins with a small wooden boat. The boat was equipped with one mast for small cloth sail and 2 paddles for rowing purposes.

The luck was not in their favor when suddenly they were hit by a storm. The small boat turned upside down after being hit by a huge wave. The three youngsters hung to the wooden boat. But the wave was too strong. One after another lost their grips to the boat and vanished...
