These facts raced through my mind as I stood dumbfounded in front of my fifth-grade classmates. It can cause their brains to explode and their heart to stop dead still. Shock has been known to kill ten-year-olds. With a jerk the bus rumbled down the road, and I was on my way to one of the worst days of my life. The look on my face was one of confidence and contentment. As I nestled into the worn leather seat, I was greeted by the friendly voices of other excited kids. The sun was warm on my back as I raced toward the waiting yellow school bus. Have you ever had a day when you wished you had stayed in bed? As I rushed to catch the bus on what seemed to be a perfectly normal day, I had no idea what was ahead of me.
“Today of all days you want to be on time.” If I had only known what that day would bring, I would have stayed in bed. “Hurry or you’ll be late!” called my mother from the bottom of the stairs.
