MXM: CHAPTER 1.1: "ALYSSA"
I was born on a day I don't remember anymore because the day I was truly born was the day of the accident. It was November 2nd and I missed the school bus by a second. The bus was driving ahead of me on that wednesday morning and I couldn't catch it. I knew all my classmates hated me so it was hopeless to assume any of them would tell the driver. It was hard being a Sophmore when everyone didn't like you.The bus made a turn at the corner on a red light and my mistake was to run after it. I saw the bus contnue to drive until it stoped mid-center of the light to let a kid run across the front of it. I saw this as my opportunity and ran toward it. SUDDENLY! I could see the bus crash into another bus that was coming from the opposite direction. The bus was hit on the rear and spun about 360 degrees and until it was smashing cars that were parked on the side of the street. The other but spun the opposite direction and was headed toward me and I was frozen in shock, too afraid to move. The bus kept coming, people kept screaming and there was fire everywhere behind the sliding bus that was headed my way. I thought I was gonna die, no......I knew I was gonna die...but then I was standing in front of the bathroom door in my house and then my mom said, "Bye, Alyssa", as she walked out of the house. Didn't this just happen, I knew I saw my mom leave before the accident so how did I end up back here? I was in my pajamas and I didn't even take a shower yet but after what I saw, I didn't even want to leave the house so all I did was crawl back into bed, closed my eyesand hoped I was dreaming.
