(A.N-This part of the story tells what happened to her brother.)
"Ready Marie?" My brother asked while grabbing his car
keys.
"Ya,I'm ready.Let me just get my purse.Wait for me in the
car."I said as I went upsatirs,I grabbed my purse and ran
downstairs.
"Okay,now I'm ready."I said as I got into the backseat and
put my seatbelt on.
"Alright.Let's go!" He said as he drove off.
"Eric,put your seatbelt on!" I said.
"Marie,I never use my seatbelt on,what can go wrong?"He
said as he turned around and looked at me.
"Eric look out!!!!!" I said as I noticed he was going to
crash right into another car.
Instead he swirved and crashed into a building.Eric's body
flung foward and was crused against the building.
I was in complete shock.Eric still didn't say anything.I
got out of the car and tryed opening the door.A couple of
people came by to help me.After about 3 minutes,we opened
the door.
"Eric!!Eric are you okay?"I said as I started crying when I seen his head through the window sheild and the rest of the body outside of the car.There was no answer.A lady checked his pulse,and she pronouced him dead.
"No!!!!I can't believe it!It's all my fault.If I didn't ask
him the question he would have still had his eye on the
road." I said as I started crying heavily.
"Honey,it's okay.It wasn't your fault.You didn't do
anything.Just sit down.The ambulance should be here in a
while." A tall lady said as she comforted me.
We were both taken to the hospital and they contacted my
parents.I never forgave myself.When I got mad at myself for
what i did,i would grab a knife,or anything sharp and cut
myself.I still never forgave myself.When the funeral came I
was a mess.That's when I started cutting myself up.It
happened right after the funeral.
I never stopped from that day.The day before I left Tulsa
made it even worst.Me and Taylor never talked.But before I
left,I slid a letter under his door.It read:
Dear Tay:
You can tear this letter up,but just read it first.
I love you with all my heart Taylor,I can't believe what you did to me.It was not like you to treat me
this way.I'm going to miss you.I'll never forget you Tay.I bet you are happy because now you can find a
prettier girl than me.If you do,treat her well,love
her with all your heart.I have to go.Bye!
Love always,Marie.
I remeber that letter like I wrote it yesterday.
"Okay kids!Out of the car!"Mrs Hanson said as I snapped
back into reality.
