I'm unable to focus, in anything I do, my attention is drawn elsewhere. The only thing that runs through my mind is what happened that Friday, 7:33 AM, as I left for school.
The same scenes flash past me, unable to leave me at rest, making me feel like both the outsider and the victim.
I see myself scream as I'm thrown from the car's impact. Harsh sunlight cuts through the windshield, blinding in my eyes. I can't react. I'm frozen. I start to shudder. The scene rewinds.
Suddenly, I'm the one feeling tossed around like tomatoes in a salad bowl, instead of being the one who watches it. A scream escapes my lips before I even register the pain spreading across my head. My heartbeat increases exponentially, the terror engulfing me in waves of panic and anxiety. And then it ends.
I feel sick. My head hurts. I want it to stop.
