A New Beginning

Chapter 24 : Not A Dream

A car crash . My father being the one in the car . Bleeding . Not moving . No pulse . Dead . I couldn't believe what was happening . My brain felt like it just exploded . " I must be dreaming . Or maybe I'm just crazy and imagining things . " I rubbed my eyes and blinked a few times . No . I wasn't crazy . This was real . 100% real . I collapsed back onto the couch . Staring at the TV as tears poured out of my eyes . I put my hands through my hair & put my elbows on my knees . I stared at the ground . My eyes wide open . " No... " I said .

I had to find where he was . I looked back up at the TV and it said the location . I knew where that was . I stood up and I put my shoes on . I than ran out the door .

I ran quickly with my shoes pounding against the pavement . I turned down street corners and even more street corners . I ran until I saw my dad's car . I sprinted over . There was the news reporter and a few cops . I ran up and tried to get through the cops but they were holding me back . " You can't go in there ! " A cop shouted . The person filming the news report was filming me . " He's my father ! You gotta let me in there ! " I shouted back . The cop grabbed me . " WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING ?!?!? LET ME GO ! RGH ! LET ME GO ! WHY CAN'T I SEE HIM ! STOP JUST LET GO OF ME ! " I screamed . He grabbed me with all of his might . It hurt . He pushed me and I fell to the ground .

The news reporters then left and drove off . The police were still roaming around . I looked at the damage . No wonder why my dad was on the news . He drove through 3 houses . There were huge holes in the houses he drove through . I started listening to a conversation a police man was having with somebody in the phone . " Yeah there are 12 victims . 7 are alive but injured and 5 are dead . The damage is pretty bad . It's insane . Hurry up and get here right away . " The police man told to the person on then phone .

I tried to get through the police to get to my father . It didn't work out at all . They were to strong . I was surprised that they didn't handcuff me or something . I tried and tried until the ambulance came and took him away .

" No...no...no... " I cried silently . I landed on the cold pavement . Then the police left . I sat on the the cold pavement crying . I wished that this was all of dream but it was real . Tears landed onto the ground . It then started to snow and it was starting dark . I stood up and looked around . The 3 houses that my dad drove through were in really bad condition . It was getting dark quickly . I then started walking home .
