When I got to my high school, I got out of my car and headed towards the school.
"Ugg, I have math first period." I thought.
When I got to math class I sat down in the second row of desks. Half way through the class the phone started ringing. The teacher answered the phone and told me to go the office. I was really nervous walking down the hallway.
" Am I in trouble, is mom back?" I thought to myself.
When I walked into the office my Aunt Pearl was sitting in a wooden chair. "Aunt Pearl, what are you doing here?" I asked.
"Hello Autumn dear, I have some really bad news.
" "What is it?" I questioned.
"There was a fire at your house." said Aunt Pearl.
"Where is dad?" I asked worriedly.
"I'm afraid to tell you, but he died in the fire." She stated.
"What?" I said while crying my eyes out.
"Come on let's go." She said while dragging me to her car.
"Wait, what about my car?" I asked through tears.
She told me, "We will get it later."
I got into Aunt Pearl's car and we headed to my house. When we got to my house the fire department was there and my house was a big pile of ash. As one of the firemen came over to me, I saw that he had my dad's boots in his hands.
" Here miss, this was all that we could salvage." He said while handing me the boots.
" Thank you" I said while more tears were coming up.
