My parents are driving me to camp. I am so excited to see my friends other than school and actually in camp. When I look out the window I see the air as clear as day and the sun shining bright. We are on the highway and i see cars coming from direction I can't even name. I see trucks, SUV's, Tesla's and many more.
We are almost an hour away, my dad always gives me the iPad whenever I seem bored. He looked backed at me and gave me the iPad. Honestly I really needed it. I start to play a game and when it's loading see a truck in the distance moving really fast and coming from a side I can't remember I have seem before. The truck is blue with a top of green. The shades are up so I can't see who's in it. We start to go closer to it. I have never experienced this before. We are now off the highway and the truck is gone. The neighborhood we are driving in is very small but beautiful. It has little houses made with stone and brick and a little chimney on top. But then I see it again coming from a distance of around 10 feet.
"The truck" I say under my breathe
I start to breathe heavily. My dad looks back and so does my mom but I before I know it...
I hear a crash and scream. I look into the front seat. I see my dad slouching on the seat of the car. My mom rushing for air but, she doesn't make it across the street. I look at my dad and mom I try CPR because I took a class but nothing works. The neighbors next door hear and come running out. They see me in the car with my parents. I am afraid they are going to think I killed them. I grab my stuff and start running away from the scene and leave like nothing happened.
Tears rushing out from my eyes. I just keep running until I can't. It getting dark and I need to find a place to stay! I stop for a breathe of air. I stopped in this sort of place with trees right next to me and tall grass with some flowers scattered around the forest, I guess you could say. I see a little light and look to my right. I find a boat out in the shadows. But, I can't worry about that right know. I pick some leaves and move some rocks around for an empty space. I place the big leaves and lay down. It's been a long day, I say.
Near the boat I hear yelling. I guess maybe a parent? But, I see a couple fighting in the distance.
"you're dumb no you're stupid." The couple says
Next door they go crazy and yell at the couple like toddlers
"great" I think to myself
Now I can go steal a boat. It sounds better in my head. I creep up to make sure they went inside. The boat the tide up with a car. Good thing my dad taught me how to start a car without a key or else I wouldn't know what to do. I try to use my hair clip as a helper. I put the clip into the look and I have to move around the engine a little bit. I go look up front and fix up the engine so I can take the car with the boat.
After a while I finally got it and just in time the couple was just about to come back outside! I feel sorrow and unsettled. My eyes start to water and I almost cry but I don't and I keep trying to figure out what I am going to do next.
