My hands were freezing. I could barely feel them, I could only feel the agonizing pain. ****, I thought, I would kill for a cup of coffee to warm me up. But there was no coffee here, as I learnt, in my step father's cabin. I wandered around, taking detail at everything I saw. A big bunk bed beside a small table that had my phone and laptop in, a small closet that had both of my big bags in, nothing else really. I got tired of standing there and I crept out of the room, peeking to see if my father was around. There was really nothing much here too. A door that lead to a very simple bathroom, a simple mix of a toilet, sink and a shower, on the other side of the room there was a hallway leading to my father's room. I didn't dare peek in. I walked a tiny bit more, arriving to a small kitchen, in front of the kitchen there was a small sofa and a very tiny television with a long antenna. As I was inspecting the rooms, my father startled me with the door. I had been very paranoid since my mother died. The crash was just very impacting in my life. “Hey, Tara! I brought some groceries, sorry I took that long.” He sounded very happy, all quite the opposite I was. My response wasn't as wonderful and perfect as his mood. I simply muttered “Thanks.” and headed to the kitchen to try to help him unpack. As I was done, I realized that I hadn't done one thing yet. Oh my! I seem to have forgotten to tell you, my name is Tara, I'm 16 years old, and as you can see, I'm living in a very cold town called ______. Now back to my story, I noticed that I forgot my iPod in my car, how much I treasured it, it had all the music I ever loved! My beautiful Metallica and Maiden were in that iPod. All my pictures of me and my mom too. I adjusted my scarf and asked my stepdad for the car keys. He nodded and gave me the keys to his robust pickup truck. I put on my boots and started heading to the car. I started complaining to myself about the cold weather and how bad it would be to my dog, Jack. Jack oddly, was a Jack Russel terrier I've had since I remembered. I wondered if he was ****ing freezing cold as I was. I climbed into the car and had the stupid thought of trying to escape.. I shook the feeling off and started scanning the car, remembering where I left my iPod. In result not only did I find my iPod but I also found my dog's treasured little sweater my mom made him. Oh memories. I almost ran back to the cabin, I was very cold. I sighed when I got in and took my boots off. My father was nowhere in sight. I shrugged and almost danced to my room, where I snuggled in the covers with my dog. I must've fell asleep because, next thing I know, its already night. I almost crawled out of my room and into the bathroom. I took a long warm shower, I really felt reliefed when I went out. I dressed in my most comfortable sweats and ran up to the kitchen, where suprisingly I saw my father cooking. It smelled delicious! I made my way to the table and grabbed a biscuit, then I made my way up to my room and turned on my laptop. Amazingly as it sounds, I googled my town at the moment, ____. And some odd news popped out. Not at all what I expected. I clicked the link and waited patiently. As I started reading, I couldn't believe what I read. I tumbled out of my room and frantically searched for my dad. I almost screamed when I didn't find him. Scared to death I ran back into the room, hoping that I dreamt or imagined all of that. I wasn't dreaming...

“Father and daughter found dead at Road 67”

This tragic event took place today in the town of _____. It seems that the man crashed and both died at the accident; a dog also died. It was very sad and tragic, but it seems they had no other family. Open funeral services will be made tomorrow at 10 AM.

I couldn't believe my eyes.. I tumbled out of my bed and made my way to my father's room. I.. didn't find him.. But if we were both dead, why wasn't he here? Not even my dog was with me anymore. This was frightening and I amazingly had an idea. I ran outside and took a look at the car. It was devastantingly broken and damaged, unlike how it had been hours ago. I dared to look behind the wheel.. where I found Jack, my dog, dead.
