“Hello ladies and gentlemen, here we are today with one the families of the three out of four people that died four years ago. May I have the honors of introducing Aiden Williams.” “Aiden, welcome. Thank you for coming here.” “Thank you, my pleasure to be here.” “So tell us, how’ve you been in these last 4 years.” “I’ve been good, it’s a little tough, but I’m getting there.” “So Aiden, tell us, what happened 4 years ago on April 15” I was the only one awake in my house as my wife, Vanessa, and my daughter, Amanda, were still sound asleep after a long night last night. As I was cleaning, I found a flyer that allows you to sign up for this year’s marathon. Disappointed, I put it back and made a mental note to ask Vanessa about …show more content…
My main focus was on trying to find Vanessa and make sure my family was okay. But then I see Vanessa on the floor. Blood is everywhere, and a woman trying to help her. I go to her as quick as I can. “Aiden!” She says in a weak voice. “Yes, it’s me. Everything will be okay.” I told her as tears were rolling down my cheeks. “Mommy,” Amanda says crying “Are you okay?” “Yes baby. I just have an owie, but I’ll be fine,” Amanda says in painful tears. “You’ll be okay. Remember the pain to forget it. Remember to forget. You can do this baby.” …… “That’s how it all happened. It’s still hard for me and Amanda to get over it. But we have to remember to forget right?” I said through tears as I held Amanda on my lap. “That must’ve been really hard for you to say. Thank you very much I appreciate that.” The interviewer said sincerely as she wiped the couple of tears she had. “So Aiden, how has it been since this happened? What has changed?” “There has been a lot things that changed. But now me and Amanda live in a small apartment in Connecticut.” “Aiden, Amanda, I know this day has been very tough for you guys, but I want to thank you for being here and sharing your story. Thank you everyone for listening and my thoughts and prayers go out to this
Far back, in the midst of a time when the world was very young, there lived a princess named Lucille and a bunny named Fluffy. Lucille was a beautiful girl with chocolate brown hair, and eyes as blue as the sweet summer sky. Fluffy was as white as snowflakes and as soft as clouds. He offered plenty of razzmatazz but little manners. They lived together in a tall castle, covered in green vines and grey cobblestone, hidden in the dense forest filled with animals and nature.
Through this quote Williams incorporates heartache into Amanda’s voice depicting her ambition for Laura to succeed. She also feels, “So weak I could barely keep on my feet!”(Williams 14). These two quotes illustrate that Laura’s own being is extremely important to Amanda and to an extent, acts as if Laura’s failure is her own failure. This sense of care that Amanda shows is essential to help Laura make something of herself and appears to the reader as a deep aspiration of Amanda’s conscious. While Troy only cares for Cory because , “It is my job...cause it’s my duty”(Wilson 38).
It was a bright and sunny June day. It was all calm at the jury house, Sheila was getting ready for her first case. It was about a person being murdered. Her witness, Mr. Leblanc, asked her if she can help him find his wife. She said that she can’t.
Sophia Garcia was a 14-year-old freshman who cared about her family, the latest season of Friends, and the Patriots. Being in a household with six athletic brothers, from a young age Sophia had the experience of playing numerous sports, her favorite being football. Unfortunately, her high school only offered football for boys, and in return, offered cheerleading for girls. However, Sophia craved to play for her high school football team.

Since the night Lamar almost passed I have thought about writing to your family every day to express how sorry I am about the pain Lamar and your family have endured since the night of his overdose.
(to Elina) My dear daughter-in-law, now you are married with Eric, and you are pregnant, so you are a part of our family, I think it’s the time for you to know everything… (after a pause) Every year, the same day, we’re gathering all together to remember, what happened, considering today- ten years ago.
I’m glad we have Maurice, my mother’s younger brother here today. Ella, her older sister, unfortunately couldn’t make it, but I know the news of my mothers death hit her hard. And I know that she prayed with all her will, for my mother.
To begin with Abigail and I have been bestfriends since Pre-K. We were like two peas in a pod. From the first time we encountered one another our friendship became solid. However, like in any friendships or relationships there will be times when you dont see eye to eye. I guess this was one of those times.
I'd like to thank you all for the outpouring of support and condolences on the loss of my beautiful son Adam. My entire family appreciates it. This is my eulogy to Adam:
Maudire les actions du diable ! After years of working my fingers to the bone, this is all I get! The three people I valued most have left me. Ellen- my dear wife- passed away. My son – the one I trusted to be there for my family, after my time– has gone. Also my doll, my Mattie, with her sweet smile, her resilience as strong as a bull…Très bien! Qu'est-ce que je vais faire? My land, and my shattered family are all I have. I feel nothing… except shame, fear, and sleepless yearning for my loved ones. What bothers me most is … they all left me. Life would be so much easier with Lawton pulling the cart, Mattie looking after the younger ones and my precious Ellen… just staying here with me. I've been double-crossed by MY family!
“Straining his eyes, he saw the lean figure of General Zaroff. Then... everything went dark. Maggie woke up in her bed. “Finally woke up from that nightmare. Man… I miss my brother. Who was that person that my brother wanted to kill?” she looks at the clock and its 9:15am “Crap I’m late for work!” Maggie got in her car and drove to the hospital for work.
As the sun set, the few thin strips of clouds on the horizon turned shimmering gold. King Edward and his brother Sir Lucan were hanging and chatting in the garden behind the castle. King Edward looked around discreetly. After making sure no one was around, he talked to his brother: "Oh, my dearest brother Sir Lucan, father of Sir Williams, can you tell me what thing is hanging around in your son’s mind? He does not look like himself recently.
Amanda had gone out the night before with her niece for a late birthday celebration. Joe had the kids that night, so Amanda though it would be a good idea to go celebrate since she hadn’t the night of her birthday. They went to a few bars and were having a great time. Amanda went home that night and sat down to watch some TV in her apartment. She got sick and went to go hurl in the toilet. She passed out and suffocated herself with the toilet seat. The next day Amanda didn’t show up to work and they were all so confused, because she never missed a day of work. One of Amanda’s co-workers, and friends, knew that Joe had the kids and that she went out the night before. She had called Joe asking if he knew where she was and he said no. She asked him to go check the apartment, so he did. It was locked and he didn’t have a key. He ended up calling the cops and they came over and kicked the door in and they all started looking around. Joe ended up finding her in the bathroom and he froze. He says it was the most peaceful, horrible sight he has ever seen. He loved Amanda to death and that just broke him. I honestly don’t think he will ever love another woman in his life. The love of his life was just ripped away from
During the past few days, many of our friends and family have come to our home to show their love for us and for Arlyn. I have been especially moved by the fact so many of her teachers and principals have shown up and cried with us. I am also touched by the love her young friends had for her. Our memories of this sad time in our lives will therefore not all be bad.
Amanda then accuses Tom saying “You don’t know things anywhere! You live in a dream: you manufacture illusions.” This was the final straw, Tom left his home for
