Life

Where is your beginning?

Everything starts somewhere, where did things start for you? For me things started years ago. I was 7 years old, and I was at the park with my friends. Everything happened so fast. But I remember the day like it was yesterday.
The police man wearing all black pulled up to the park where we were. He said, "Elizabeth you need to come with me". I had no clue what he was talking about but I knew I could trust an officer. I apologized to my friends for having to abandon them and got into the car with the man.
While the officer was driving I asked what his name was. He said his name was Oliver. I don't know why but his name was comforting, I just knew I could trust him. I asked what happened and he said my mother had gotten into a terrible car crash. I immediately started crying, I loved my mom. "This can't be happening" I screamed. It was too real and I knew it and that's what hurt the most.
We arrived at the hospital. I requested to see my mom, surely they would let me. Wrong, they told me I couldn't see her until the next day. I fell asleep waiting in that hospital. I was all alone, and there was nothing anyone could do to help me.
