With my eyes still closed,

I become conscious again.

Something holds my tight.

My sore eyes open.

I look up at this stranger.

His ocean eyes gaze

Softly at me. My

head pounded and I cried out

in pain. I brought my

hands to my head and

felt a wet substance. I knew

it was blood. What was

going on? Where even

was I? I gazed at the man.

He started speaking,

“Carley, It’s ok.

They are coming to help you.

Please just stay with me.”

I opened my mouth.

I meant to talk to this man.

But a scream escaped.

I don’t know why

I screamed. It could have been cause

I didn’t know him.

My ears started to ring.

Then I heard the sirens. I

was getting some help.
