David held onto Charlene's hand as he led her and his mother toward a gathering crowd near a lifeboat. He could not see Charlene's brother. He led the two past the ship's orchestra that was playing some lively songs. They came up to a lifeboat.
An officer waved a pistol. " Women and children only".
" You both need to get in". He helped the two get into the wooden boat. Chaos ensued as women and children cried loudly for fathers and husbands.
" David, I won't leave without you".
After the boat was filled, the ropes began to be lowered.
" David, remember your promise to Jesus".
The boat was lowered to the frigid water.
David yelled back. " I will".
He walked toward the stern of the ship. The bow of the huge liner was already tipping downward into the icy water.
He found a bench near the stern of the liner. He began to pray.
