 Hi, my name is Amelia and I'm 15 years old, I was a regular teenager till last week when everything changed. You're probably wondering what happened that changed EVERYTHING? Well, last week it was a normal Friday just like every other one ever, except for one thing. All day from the time I woke up till the time I got home from school I had a REALLY bad feeling like something bad was going to happen. Walking home after getting off the bus the feeling just increased with every step I took home.

I get home finally and see a note on the kitchen bench from my parents saying they went out and should be home at 3:30 and that My older sister who was 18 and my 10-month-old niece was with them and they were going to drop them at there house before coming home. This didn't help that feeling in my stomach one bit. I looked at my phone and it was 3:15 so they should be home soon. I started doing my afternoon chores before they got home, so I put on some music and start dancing and doing what I needed to do.  Once I finished all my chores I realise it has to of been more than 15 minutes and they still weren't home. I check my phone and it was already 4 pm.

I text my mum and wait about 10minutes and still get no response so I message her again and text my sister and dad. It reached 4:25 pm and I started to get more and more worried as I still had no reply, and that was very unusual especially from 3 different people. I decided to call my sister and it rings through for a while and as I was about to hang up, when someone answers. I didn't recognise the voice on the other side, but it sounded like a mid-aged male. 'Hello?' I say, 'Hello who is this' he replies back, ' Amelia who's this and why do you have my sisters phone?' I hear him get tense through the phone and he finally replies with ' I'm officer Daniels and your sister was in a car accident'. I go silent 'Hello? Amelia are you still there?', 'Sorry I just needed a minute, is there anyone else in the car with her?', I question. 'Yes there is an older male, older female and a baby with her, do you know them as well?, 'Yes that would be my parents and niece, are they okay? is anyone injured??'.  He then just says that he can't explain those kinds of details over the phone but if I can meet him at the scene of the crash then we can discuss injuries etc.....
