It is now 11:00am, and Mala told her parents she was going to meet with her friends. Mara usually just stays at home, she is not an out goer like Mala are. Mara always stays inside and study, but she often watches a little TV before she starts studying to get her thoughts together. She sat in her bed and turned on the black flat screen Toshiba television set that is on top of her light brown drawer. She picks up the remote lying on her bed and turns it on.
"Good morning, I'm Bob Anderson. We interrupt this broadcast of HitRECord on TV to bring you breaking news of a fatal car accident just outside of town. A girl who appears to be in her early teens was standing in the street this morning. It appears intentionally she wanted a car to hit her. A pick up truck was trying to stop but lost control and hit the girl. The girl was found stuck under the wheels and her body mutilated," Anderson announced.
"This is sad, so sad," Mara said shaking her head.
"The girl in her teens is dead. As you can see this is heavy traffic and rush hour here on Kensey street Ave. We have a picture of the young girl in her teens who wanted to take her life getting hit by..."
"MAAARTIAAA, NOOOOOOOOOOOOO, OH GOD, MOMMMY, DADDY COME IN HERE," Mara runs out of her room and darts down the stairs. "MOMMY."
"What hun? What's going on?" Khara asked, looking concerned.
"IT'S MARTIA," Mara said.
"What?" She asked.
"I JUST SAW HER ON THE NEWS... SHE'S DEAD..."
"OH GOD, ABE TURN ON THE TV," she asked frantically.
Abe darts into the living room and turns the TV on and that is when their parents heard, and they all broke down and fell to the floor.
