when dan was small, there was an accident. it happened during a thunderstorm. well, it happened because of a thunderstorm.
it was wet and dark. rain coming down in sheets. the streets were empty. or so dan thought. there was a loud screech, dan could see the glare of headlights before he felt searing pain at his hip. his head throbbed as he fell to the ground, onto a puddle. a puddle of rainwater or a puddle of his own blood, dan didn't know. he was crying.
the last thing he saw was a flash of lightning. his vision had gone blurry. there was a shut of a car door. a loud boom of thunder. dan's heart was thumping heavily in his chest. his everything hurt. he wanted it to end. his mum warned him not to cross the road in such weather but he didn't listen.
rain pelted onto him, heavy and purposeful. his tears mixed with the rain drops. he felt a warm arm at his side. then, darkness.
