1. He Died For You, Will You Die For Him?
The police told me that speed was a factor in the crash. Kyle's estimated speed was 85 miles per hour in a 45 zone. He was trying to maneuver around a car in a passing zone and lost control. Kyle had told me only today that his car would be the death of him. That day his car got the best of him and his brother. I couldn't believe how quickly a life could be taken away. I felt lonely and lost; I didn't know what to do or where to go. .
I drove to the Cristman's house because I needed to know the truth about what really happened to my friends. The looks on the Cristman's faces were enough closure for me. Losing two sons in one day-nobody could ever be prepared to handle that news. I just went up to Mrs. Cristman and embraced her because we both lost something that could never be replaced. The rest of the family and I went to the accident scene and reminisced about Kyle and Tim. We took some memorable items from the car that will need to be treasured, Kyle's license plate (SPGUY), track shoes and his trumpet. We took Tim's culinary arts book, lacrosse stick and jersey (#33), and his saxophone. I've never lost anybody in my life. It's the worse experience that anybody will ever go through. The only thing that I remember about the rest of that night was drinking hard liquor to ease my pain and crying myself into a deep sleep. .
I awoke in the morning hoping that everything that happened yesterday evening was all just a bad nightmare. Oh boy was I wrong. The first thing I saw when I turned on the TV that morning was the headline news with pictures of my friends, and a glimpse of the car after the wreck. My eyes fill with tears again, and I ran to the bathroom and vomited in the reality that I will have to go on with life with out my best friends. I didn't go to school that morning. I needed to be with the Cristmans; as much as I needed someone there with me they needed all the support they could get.
