Here I will tell you what happened to me the other day. My best friend Alice and I was riding her brother’s four-wheeler. She was driving down a road when all of sudden we hit a sand pile and lost control. She was okay and I wasn’t. I was knocking unconscious. At first she didn’t know how to do but then she heard a truck coming down the road. So she waved down the driver and explain what had happened. The man got out of his truck with a second thought. He rushed over to her and called an ambulance. By that time I was starting to wake up. When I woke up, I saw the man stood over me. I thanked for him. That man was a hero.
