"At what time do I go pick you up at school?"
"School ends at 4:15 mom"
She gives me a kiss and leaves me in the park.
I am start to walk to school by myself because I can't find anyone to walk me.....
all of the sudden I hear a
CRASH!!
And someone's arms around me.
I start to panick and scream!
"Leave me alone pleaseee!" I screamed to the person.He didn't answer me instead he took me to the side walk i think.
"Look I'm sorry that I carried you like that but you were crossing the street and a truck almost ran over you" the man said his voice sounded raspy and his breath smelt like bubble gum."......thank you I'm sorry that-
"Its alright were are you headed? I could take you in my car"
he friendly! that's a good sign I thought to myself
"I was going to school after all this but can you please leave me in my house I really don't feel like going now." I actually want to go I'm just a little nervous.
"Are you sure? What school do you go to?" He sounds worried. He shouldn't be.
"No,I'm not sure can you please just drop me off at school I know that my mother would get mad if I stayed at home when its the first day of school in my entire life!"
" what you have never been to school?" He asked confused
"Yes I have ,but homeschooled I have never been to an actual school before.
Well I have but that was before this happened." I say pointing at my cane
"What if we go for coffee and you tell me how that happened?" I know he is smiling at me
"I accept"
I can't believe myself I almost died yet here I am inside his car going for coffee
....
He sits me down in one of the chairs from Starbucks and asks me what kind of coffee I want
Caramel iced coffee !!!"So I don't want to sound rude but can you tell me now please?" He asks as he puts the cold coffee in my hands
I take a sip
And another" we were on our way to my uncles house because my mother wanted to see him he was sick, the road was wet it had rained for days. There was a truck. It didn't stop. It crashed with ours and flipped us around. When the ambulance came ,mom said that I was on conscious ,so they took me to the hospital. When I woke up the next day the doctor told me that from the shock of the car crash I was left blind."
