Personal Narrative: My Dad

"Daddy? When are we going to be home?" I asked licking my double chocolate chip ice cream cone.

"Anytime now honey just sit back and eat your ice cream. Maybe we can even play the Wii when we get home." My father said and I squealed with delight, this time I would make sure to beat him at Mario Kart. Then my dad stooped at the red light.

"Another one of these things! Dad why do they have to make them, I hate how they make us wait to go home!" I started to pout, it wasn't fair a stupid light could stop you from getting to where you wanted.It was just plain old dumb.

" Daddy needs to stop like everyone else so we don't get in a car crash, that would not be good." My dad looked back and smiled. "I love you honey,"

"I love you too daddy!" The red light switched to green and my dad started to drive. Then I heard a loud noise and I screamed as I heard my dad shout, "i love you baby!" Then I felt a crash.

The whole car shook and it started to flip in circles, I screamed while crying the whole way down.

Then everything was done, the car was on its side and i steeped out of the broken window. My body felt like I had been put in an oven. I looked down and saw blood everywhere. My arms and legs were scratched pretty badly.

"D-d-daddy?" Tears were starting to stream down my face. "Daddy where are you, I'm scared please answer me." I started to shake and I walked toward my dads seat.

There was more blood then I had ever seen in my life, and when I looked down all I could do was scream. I screamed and screamed, My daddy was covered in blood, "Dad! Daddy answer me!" I fell to the ground and kept on screaming. I could hear sirens coming closer but I didn' care, I was scared and my daddy wasn't talking to me. He looked dead, like the bad guys in movies ended up like. I saw some flashing lights and strange men were running toward me. One guy Picked me up and brought me over to a car and sat me

down.

"Hello honey, my name is Ryan. Were here to help you, and your father." I tried to listen to this Ryan guy but I couldn't stop crying. "It's okay, there there. We can help you If you can calm down a bit. I know that this is really scary honey but we need you to help us."

"O-o-okay," I said slowly.

"Okay, do you remember your name and age?" Ryan asked softly.

"Umm, yeah it's Clarissa and I'm six years old." I replied while hiccuping because of crying.

"Do you know what happened sweety?"

"We were waiting at a red light and then it turned to green, then my dad started to drive. Then I heard this loud sound, then a really big crash and then..." Tears started to well in my eyes agin and my throat started to swell up.

"Hey now its okay, lets just let the nice nurses finish looking at your wounds." Ryan said with a nice voice.

I nodded silently and looked at the ground.

Five days later

There is a big box. but I couldn't figure out what was inside it.. It did'nt look like a present, those were never opened at the top. I went to go look but my mom pulled me back.

" Mom I want to see whats in the box." I said, I had wanted to know for about an hour.

This guy was talking but I wasn't listening, and everyone was crying. Even my mom was crying, and I tried to cheer her up but i couldn't. Maybe daddy wasn't here because he was sill at the doctors. The man stopped talking and people were standing up, my mom took my hand and we started to walk towards the box. I was so excited I finally got to see the inside! when we got there my daddy was in the box. He looked like my favorite Disney character Sleeping beauty.

"Why is dad pretending to be Aurora? He looks so silly!" I started to giggle, Dad was always silly.

We waited on the side and then these two men started to put the top on the box daddy was in! I tried to stop them but my mom pulled me back gently.

"Honey, daddy needs to stay in the box. He is going to be put in the ground." My mom said as a tear ran down her cheek.

"Mom, dad is only sleeping like sleeping beauty!" I screamed, they couldn't just bury him in the ground!

"Clarissa, daddy is dead. He wont be with us anymore."

All i could do is scream and cry when I hear that. I fell to the ground and cried. My mom was crying as she picked me up and we left that horrible place.

I bolted upright in my bed, tears were streaming down my face. The accident had happen 12 years ago and still haunted my dreams. I looked at the clock, it was 5:50 A.M. I tured off my alarm that would go off in five minuets. I Took a deep breath and hopped into the sower to wash away the bad memories.
