A Car Accident

王晴

Nancy argued with her parents. She wanted to go to a party， but her parents disagreed. Later that evening， she climbed out of her bedroom window.

At the party， Nancy met Vince. They talked together and Nancy found him very humorous， because he made her laugh. After a while Vince asked her to go to another party. As they left， Nancy noticed that he was very drunk. When she tried to say something， Vince told her not to be so afraid.

While driving quickly， Vince put his right arm on her shoulder. Nancy asked him to slow down， but he didnt listen. Suddenly， they saw a car， but the boy couldnt slow down with his right hand in time. They hit the coming car hard.

When Nancy woke up， she found herself lying in hospital. She couldnt move her arms or legs， but she asked the nurse how Vince and the situation of the other car were. The nurse told her that Vince and the two people in the other car hurt badly.

Nancy began crying sadly. She begged the nurse to send a message to her parents. “Just tell them that Im sorry，” the girl said. “Im sorry for arguing with them and tell them I love them very much.” The nurse didnt know how to reply. She knew her parents were just in the other car.
