Dedication

I dedicate this book to my friend Cody Duncan. I dedicate this to him because he had the same tragedy with his sister. I feel so bad and we miss her dearly. Their family is my family. I miss and love you Cherice.

One cold January week, a girl named Abigail was at her friends house for winter break. Her friends' name was Destinie. There was another friend over too, her name was Autumn. Autumn and Destinie were 12 but Abigail was 13. Abigail's eyes were as sparkling as the snow glistening outside. All three girls were average weight. Two of the three girls were tall. Abigail was the oldeseet, but also the shortest. Today was the last day of break.

"So what do you want to do?" asked Destinie. "I have board games downstairs"she continued.

"What kind?" asked Abigail.

"Before you came we were playing checkers" Autumn told Abigail.

"Thats cool" Abigail said. "But what do you want to do now?" She asked.

"Well I have Checkers, Chutes and Ladders, Matching, Monopoly, and Sorry" Destinie added in.

The girls took the games and went upstairs. they took out the Matching game and started playing. After getting the the cards set out and they started playing they quit. They left everything out and Destinie's mom had to clean it up. She got very mad at the girls and made them go home.

February 18, 2010

The girls called their moms and explained why they had to come home early. They were'nt very happy. The girls said goodbye to Destinie and got their things ready to go. Both moms came at the same time. The girls got in their cars and were off.

Abigail-

When Abigail got home she finished her school project and even took a nap. After her nap she her stuff ready for school tomorrow. When she was done with that she helped her mom make dinner. She ate then watched some T.V. and went to bed.

Autumn-

When Autumn got home she also finished her homework. When she was done with her homework she cleaned her basement and bedroom. By the time she was done with that her mom had dinner done and on the table. She ate then got ready for bed.

While Autumn was laying in bed she wanted to call Abigail, so she did. Well she tried calling to warn her about the snowstorm but Abigail must of already been asleep, so she left a voicemail:

"Hello ,Abigail, I just called to warn you about the blizzard in the morning. Just be careful walking in the morning to school." "Maybe try to get a ride from your father tomorrow. Bye, Abby."

After she left voicemail she watched a half-hour of T.V. and then went to bed.

Destinies' Morning-

Destinie like all the other girls has a morning schedule.This is Destinie's.

5:45 alarm goes off/hit snooze 6:00 wake up/ get dressed 6:15 eat breakfast 6:45 brush teeth/deoderant 6:50 brush hair 7:00 get bookbag together 7:05 watch T.V. 7:25 wait for bus

It was 7:22 and all Destinie wanted was to still be in bed. She had everything done and was now waiting for the bus. It was a very cold, but clear day. She was just waiting for the blizzard to come in. She got on the bus and was in for the ride of her life!

Autumns' Morning

Autumn has the same schedule as Destinie. Except Autumn accidently didn't wake up until 6:30, which messed up her schedule. She had to rush, but she had everything done by by 7:00. She went to wait for the bus at 7:20 because she thought she was running late. She got on the bus at 7:30, she too was in for the ride of her life.

Abigails' Morning

Abigail also had a schedule but hers is different. Here is her schedule.

6:00 wake up / shower / get dressed 6:15 watch T.V. 6:30 eat breakfast 6:45 brush teeth 7:00 brush hair 7:05 start walking to school

Abigail didn't wake up until 6:30 because she got her shower the night before. Abigail caught up to her sshedule and started walking at 7:05 just like she was supposed too.

Of course, when she left, it started to snow. It takes her 30 minutes to get to school, and the snow would probably get worse. She was hoping she could make it too school on time.

Just like she figured, the snow did get worse, way worse. The snow drizzle turned into the snowstorm everyone was saying would come.

As Abigail walked, the storm got worse. It was getting to where she could barely see. When she came to a turn she had to bend down to see if it was the right turn. This worked until it came to the turn for the school parking lot.

She realized she was going the wrong way, but she thought for sure this was the right turn. Until she felt it,

' BOOM! '

Everyone in town heard it. Some said, it was the worst thing they have every saw. Abigail, got hit by the school bus.

The kids on the bus ran out of the bus to see who or what they hit. Autumn and Destinie got off the bus not knowing what they were about to see.

" Oh my gosh, " Abigail screamed when she realized who it was.

The rest of the kids had to walk to school so they would be there on time. Ambulances rushed into the scene. All you heard were sirens everywhere.

"Is she going to be okay?" Abigail asked as she was walking away.

"She will be fine, just please get to school." The police officer said not sure if she would be okay or not.

The paramedics put Abigail into the ambulance and drove strait to the hospital.

When they got her to the hospital they called her mom. Abigail, of course, could not talk because she was knocked out. Her mom was at the hospital in less than 10 minutes.

Twenty minutes later they got her back to functioning right. She woke up to see her mom sitting right beside her. Her mother was very happy to see her baby girl alive.

About that time, the doctors had walked in and talked to them since Abigail was now capable.

"We are going to have to run some tests," The doctor said.

The mother, being concerned immediately asked, " kind of tests?"

"We are going to make sure no brain damage is done and see how many broken bones she actually has, " the doctor replied."

" Okay that sounds good," Abigail replied before her mom could say anymore.

"Great follow me young lady, " The doctor replied.

While Abigail was in for tests, her mother went out and text all her family at once. This was the message that was sent :

Abby is in 4 tests. May b some brain damage bt no1 knos yet. Txt you wen we get the resultz. luv ya. wish me luk =) E> ~ * I LUV HYM * ~ <3

Everyone replied telling her to let them know what happens and wished her luck with everything.

After fifteen long minutes, Abigail was back from tests. They said the tests might take awhile to come back. Since the test results were going to take awhile, Abigail had her mom get her book bag, (which the paramedics took off her back when she was hit). Abigail told her to get her Princess Diaries book out. She read for thirty minutes then the results came back.

It turns out, Abigail has three broken bones, her leg, ankle, and above her elbow. The good news was, there is no brain damage and the other good news is that she is actually alive.

By no, Abigail had her wraps on her three broken spots and was ready to order lunch. She ordered french fries and a chocolate milk. At this point she wasn't very hungry and was wondering how long she would be stuck without her friends.

By the time she said this her doctor walked in and said she has to stay two nights in the hospital and one week on bed rest. She can only get up to go to the bathroom and for emergencies.

Two days later:

TIME TO GO HOME! Today is the day Abigail gets to go home. Abigail was happy but still in a lot of pain. She still was not able to go back to school for another week though. She'll miss her friends and doesn't want to make up all the work but she is happy she gets to stay out of school.

When she got home, her friends came to visit her. Autumn brought her flowers and Destinie brought a card and teddy bear.

"Well, I'm going to take a nap," Abigail told her friends. "It has been a long three days."

"Okay, see you tomorrow," both girls replied.

One week later:

FINALLY BACK TO SCHOOL!

"I get to go to school, I get to go to school," Abigail yelled through the house.

She was still in a wheelchair though because she can't use her arm to use crutches. She had a lot of work to make up, but she still was happy to be back with her friends.
