Question

Life is important. You should always have fun and new experiences, because you never know what day will be your last. You shouldn’t hold anger. You never know what could happen next. I learned all this at the age of nine.

It was the summer before fifth grade. My best friend Nessa and I were playing. We got angry with each other and had a fight. My older cousin, Tiffany, broke up our fight. I remember Nessa storming out of my grandmother’s house, saying, “I hope we never speak again!”

I replied, “Good, I don’t need you as a friend!”

I went into the house and tried to be quiet. Then I heard people shouting outside. My cousin rushed in. She said that Nessa had been hit by a street truck as she crossed the road. The driver didn’t see her. I felt sad. I wished it had been me instead. It could have been avoided* if we hadn’t had that fight!

When the ambulance* arrived a few minutes later, they said she was dead. I was a real mess. I had to see a psychologist* for the rest of the summer.

I miss Nessa so much and I think of her always. She taught me how valuable* and important life is and that you should never hold anger because you never know when you’ll see that person again.
