It all started in the middle of the night. I couldn't go to sleep. I screamed. WE WERE ALL OUT OF MILK!!!! I was devastated! How could I go to sleep without any milk??? I thought to myself. A thought then popped into my head. I could read a boring book!! Na. All my books were great ones. I guess that was out of the question. That was all I could think of. I hopped into my car and drove down to the local shop, Wal-Mart.

 

I got out of the car and walked in. I went to the milk cooler. I saw my best friend from high school. We chatted for hours. When she finally left, I got my milk and went to pay. All of a sudden, I hear, “NOBODY MOVE! THIS IS A ROBBERY!' We all ran and went to the door. One of the robbers grabbed me by the arm, shot his gun at the ceiling, and shouted, “IF ANYONE ELSE MOVES, I WILL SHOOT THIS YOUNG LADY!” I started to cry. One of the robbers must have heard a phone hang up because I heard, “WE ARE TRYING TO ROB YOU, NOT PROTECT YOU.”

 

One of the clerks made a phone call to the cops. All of a sudden, my Nana's best guy friend busted through a window, pointing a gun at the robbers. He was the local Sheriff. The cops finally arrested the robbers and tool them to jail. All of then but one.

 

When I got home, I saw a dark van following me. I thought it was a new neighbor moving in, but I was wrong.

 

When I got to sleep after drinking my warm milk, I had a dream about what had happened at the store. I woke up to the noise of a train. I woke up and found myself tied up on the busiest railroad tracks in the city. There was one of the robbers just watching me. I saw the headlights coming towards me.

 

I had found the headlights inching towards me closer and closer by the second. Before I knew it, the train was only a few feet away from me. I was almost unconscious by the time the train hit me. My life flashed before my eyes. This is not how I wanted my life to end. My life, gone? How could it be? I wish I would not have ran out of milk and had to go to the store. This would never had happened. This is all my fault.
