My heart smiled as
I watched my 16 year old
brother drive. He was doing
everything perfect.
He did not miss a sign
nor fail to even turn on
his blinker when he
changed lanes.
We soon got on the highway.
It was a beautiful day, but
people began to drive as if
the apocalypse just happened.
People's engines ripped as
they flew by us. Others jerked
their car into other lanes with
no signal. It felt as if we were
on a roller coaster.
Before my brother and I
knew it everyone was speeding.
Not just speeding, but going at
a deadly rate.
My brother was trying to follow
the crowd, because if we didn't,
we could get hurt and possibly die.
I looked out the window to
the left and saw an 18 wheeler
roar behind another.
He did not slow down.
He crashed into the back and it
was like everything happened in
slow motion. I never imagined an
impact could cause such a loud
torturous sound. As I watched the
18 wheeler, the front of his truck
began to squish in as he came
into contact. It was like watching
two soda cans crush into
eachother with ease.
The impact must have knocked
the driver unconscious because
the truck began to shift in the lane.
Resulting in this, his large truck
veered in a unstoppable pace to
left of the highway. It was such a strong
and fast force, it appeared as if a
large magnet was hidden beneath
the concrete wall in the middle of the
highway.
Right when this collision happened,
my brother went full throttle. It happened
so fast, he was trying to protect us.
As we sped up, a car infront of us
slammed on the breaks.
I moved uncomfortably and
anxiously in my seat as I grabbed
a firm grip of the one infront of me.
I let out a scream. When I opened
my eyes, I saw only a large vehicle
right infront of us. We never hit.
Soon my body woke me up
at regular time. I lifted my arm
above my covers to glance at
my wrist. My Fitbit read 8:27.
I remembered my dream and
lay starring at the ceiling as it
replayed in my head.
