It was a rainy, fall day at Clovis High School, in Clovis California. Chase was late as always. It was a big problem, but the teachers gave up on him by letting him off from detentions and ISS’s a long time ago because he never showed up anyway. He was very enchanting and tall eighteen year old guy. He had jet black hair and blue eyes. All the girls fell for him when he moved here when he was ten. He played football, hockey, and track and field. He was well-known as the strongest, fastest, and most competitive athlete at his school. He’s captain of the football team, with a girlfriend who is a cheerleader, her name is Rissy. Other than his school problem, he does fairly well in school, and has a sterling life. He lives with his new foster parents with his twelve year old sister Maggie. This is their third set of foster parents. Chase ran away and forced his sister to come with him twice so far. Maggie is his only family he has since their real parents died in a car accident, he can remember it like it was yesterday.
I was eleven, my sister Maggie was six, and we had a younger brother who was three years old. His name was Maxine. We were on the highway with our drunk father on the wheel and our mother was crying. Dad was hollering at mom, and they began fighting. Maxine and Maggie were also upset. Maggie was lying on my shoulder, and my shoulders were getting soaked from here tears. “THAT”S ENOUGH” our father shrieked “I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!” He took his hands off the wheel glared at us with an evil glance. Thats when we went out of control and rolled off the road. Maggie was screaming and Maxine was whining and wailing. As we rolled down a hill and into water all I could get a glimpse of was blood streaming down my parent’s faces. Everyone was silent, and then I blacked out. When I awoke I was at the hospital with cords running from my body to a machine that was making beeping noises. The doctor was there.
“How are you” the doctor asked
“Where is my family” I asked
“There fine, are you ok”
“I want to see them” I yelled out as I started to cry
“No can do, your still recovering”
“No, No, No” I yelled
I was throwing a fit trying to untangle, and unstrap all the cords. The doctor pressed a red button. Thats when I finally got of the bed and started running out the door the doctor snatched me before I could get out. He held me down as a nurse approached me with a needle. She jammed it into my arm and I passed out. When I woke up again I was able to leave and see how my family was holding up. I got dressed and the doctor told me that I wasn’t gonna like what I see, but I told him I could handle it. I ambled into a room and saw my sister Maggie on a bed. It looked like she was sleeping, but I was so anxious to see her.
“Maggie” I yelled
“She can’t hear you Chase” the doctor whispered
“She’s deaf?”
“No”
“Dead?”
“No she’s ok”
“Then What”
“She’s in a comma”
“Oh”
“I’m sorry, we are trying our best to help her”
“I know”
Then I walked over to her and kissed her on her forehead and I whispered in her ear I Love You Maggie.
I asked where my parents and little brother was, and he doctor was silent.
“Umm doctor sir, where is the rest of my family”
