A leisurely outing to Bucasia turned into an unforgettable experience for a local couple last week when they found themselves stranded by a flat battery after enjoying the shoreline at Shoal Point.
After picking up some items they had ordered online, the pair planned a quiet moment by the sea before returning home. However, their plans were disrupted when their car refused to start.
The husband, suspecting a dead battery, began seeking help from passing drivers. Although several people stopped, no one had a jump starter on hand, leaving the couple uncertain of how they’d get home. Calling a friend was an option, but with the nearest friend an hour away, they felt they were in a challenging situation.
Determined to find a solution, the husband walked toward a nearby intersection, hoping for assistance. That’s when Calen stepped in to save the day. When he realised, he didn’t have his jump starter with him, Calen drove all the way home and returned within minutes, bringing the equipment needed to revive the couple’s car.
In minutes, their car was back up and running, and the grateful couple couldn’t thank Calen enough. His generosity and willingness to go the extra mile turned a potential ordeal into a moment of gratitude.
Reflecting on the incident, the couple shared their appreciation to a community Facebook page: “We were so relieved and grateful for his kindness. He didn't even hesitate to help us. We learned from here and we win a friend. We can't thank you enough Calen. God bless you more!”
