POST by JOSE: Hit by a Bus

Ericson

Hello my name is Jose Ballardo and I am going to tell you a story about my friend Eric and how he witnessed a tragic death.

Eric had a friend named Marco. Now Marco was someone who liked to joke a lot but one day, he went to where his friends were at and asked them all a question. He asked, "What does it feel like to die?" Everyone said that they didn’t know and wondered aloud why he’d be asking them that. He responded with, "I don’t know" and then persisted with the question over the course of that whole day.

Later on Marco said "Goodbye everyone!" and when he said that to them, they all asked "Why are you saying goodbye?" He responded by saying, "I have a feeling that I am going to die so I want to say goodbye to you all."

The next day, Marcos woke up and got ready to go to school with his friend Luiz. His mum told him "Wait for me so that I can drop you off at school." However, Marcos said to his mother, "No it's okay. I can go on my own." With that he hugged and kissed her, and then headed off to school with Luiz.

Marcos and Luiz had passed halfway across a busy intersection, but before they could get across the second part of the street, the lights turned green. Luiz ran as hard as he could and made it across, yet Marcos didnt make it.

Whilst Marcos was running, a bus going full speed roared towards him. He was unable to avoid the bus, and whilst Marcos was almost out of the way, unfortunately his backpack got caught in the bus, causing it to pull him under the wheels.

Luiz was in shock from the event that occurred and then became distressed at seeing how the bus had run over Marcos, with his body going around in circles under the bus. Once the bus had driven past the accident site, Luis saw body parts belonging to Marcos all over the street. The feeling that Marcos had told everyone about dying, ended up coming true.

Luiz went running to his mum and he told her everything that had happened. When he finished telling her she couldn’t believe it and almost fainted. Luiz's mum went to Marcos' house and also told his mum what had happened.

Together they went to the place where Marcos had been killed. Marcos' mum picked up the remaining pieces of his destroyed body. The bus had already left but someone had called an ambulance and shortly after it arrived.

The ambulance took the body parts belonging to Marcos so that they could bury the remaining pieces.

Everyone that knew Marcos went to his funeral and they cried because they could not believe that he was dead.

It’s really important to pray to God all the time, especially when you are in doubt about something, because you never know what will happen.

God bless everyone and I hope you like my story.
