chapter 1: The Accident

"Mom am ready now" Kira said as she shows off her new dress to her mom.

"You look amazing sweetie" Kira's mom said. "HONEY!!! hurry up or we are going to be late. "She added as she calls out her husband."Am coming, am coming, where are my keys". Kira's dad responded while looking for his keys in his pockets.

"it's here already, let's go, let's go". Kira's mom said hastily."let's go let's go Papa". Kira said jumping with excitement.

"Okay rose pedal's, let's go "he said calming her down.

They were driving on the road and little Kira was playing with her new dress.

'Today is going to be awesome, we are having a family day out, this is so rare because dad is hardly at home because he's trying to get a good job and for that, he travelled a lot' she thought smiling to herself.

They were enjoying the ride, when suddenly, a truck from behind was coming with full speed, horning loudly on the road, the truck driver, looking all rough brought his head out of the window.

"MOVE OUT THE ROAD, DAMN IT!" he shouted out to the drivers on the road and drove carelessly, trying to overtake the car in front of him which was filled with Kira and her parents. He overtakes the car in front of him with speed, suddenly he saw an upcoming big truck, trying to avoid collision with the vehicle, he slams into Kira's family car, which causes their car to lose control and hit the incoming truck instead, sending their car to roll over a couple of times, before it finally stopped.

Kira struggles to open her eyes and saw a great horror before her. Her body was covered with blood and her mother and father lifelessly dead in front of her eyes, she laid there horrifically as she saw their bodies

"Arrrrrrrrrgghh!!!!!". she cried in pain has she fainted. In a faint state, she noticed the ambulanced light as she completely passed out.

Few days passed before she could open her eyes, she saw herself in bandages, then she turns to see a nurse beside her, checking a piece of paper on her hand. She tries to talk but words couldn't come out of her mouth, then she tried moving her hand to get the attention of the person beside her, the nurse notice it and shouted.

"Oh my gosh! you're awake! hold on just a moment, I'll go get the doctor!" She exclaims as she ran out of the room, the next minute the doctor came in a hurry.

"Hey are you okay?, how are you feeling, can you remember your name?" he asked as he checks up on her.

"K..i..r..a.." she replied slowly as she tries to regain conscious.

"Okay Kira you'll be fine, okay, I'll do whatever I can to help you recover quickly, okay, I promise you" he said with full reassurance in is voice. Kira holds his hand and struggles to speak.

"Wh…where…are my…parents?" she asked bewilderedly, suddenly the doctor looks at the nurse and they both stared at her with an upset expression on their face.

"You were in a terrible car accident with your parents, they both died, you were the only one who survived, but with some serious injuries", he said to her, leaving the room to attend to other patients.

Kira was in shock as she heard those words, 'what, why why, but how come I survived, why me, why not them, why why not mom and dad?', she thought as she cries in agony.

After that I couldn't remember anything else, I just stood there looking like the gloomiest person in the world, I was in the hospital bed for days, if not weeks or months. I was mentally paralyzed due to what had happened to my parents, I lay still on the hospital bed, dead silent, refusing to do anything or go anywhere, even after I fully recovered, it was like there was no point in living, no point to life anymore.
