Ruby's experience on March 19th

 

   Today was march 19. the most horrible day of my life, when 4 amazing friends and family were gone, but also the best because 2 people had their life saved. i will tell you the story from start to finish of my experiences of the crash. it was a beautiful morning the sun was shining and it started out great. then at noon or so buster didn't come back from the h.o.m.e. program. mom was shopping at a store, and I was finishing up violin. mom came back from shopping, and told us that she saw a car driving really fast and then her eyes fixed on the car as it was driving then saw a poof of smoke. we told her buster hadn't come back from the h.o.m.e. program. we all started getting really worried then mom asked warner to come with her to were the car was. at the time liv was sleeping soundly not knowing anything was wrong. almost immediately i ran to liv to wake her up. i told her what mom told us about the car, and i told her that buster hadn't come home. knowing this she called dad from his work. she rushed in a hurry to were mom and warner were. then I was all alone, scared and worried. what was I to do. i thought bluey would help me but my shivers stayed there. only Nora was there to comfort me, but that didn't really help. I went to my room and prayed as hard as I could. I went back to Nora in the TV room to just be with Nora, but then liv entered the room with eyes that looked like they were crying. she definitely wasn't happy crying, it was sad. just then I knew what she would say next. she told me and Nora to turn of the show. then she told me, "ruby, Nolan was the only survivor." I thought this was only a dream and I would wake up at any moment now, but the way liv said it made it sound real. I was bawling and bawling, and couldn't stop. Xander was downstairs trying to comfort liv I stopped crying. mom had called dad 3 times now but the last time she called, he was headed home in a hurry. Xander left, and it would just be our family soon. i wondered how the Wilcoxon's were doing and felt a pain in my chest. i felt incredibly painfully for Abe. and me I don't even now how to describe it I just felt really, really sad. dad came home first and was in my arms in our arms in a heart beat. then we saw mom on our back porch with her hand on her chest. i saw warner crying on the ground with tearful eyes. buster meant so much to him. we all had a family huddle it was nice to have just our Family for a little wile then a whole ;lot a people started ringing are doorbell! for me it felt like they were invading our home until Greta showed up out of nowhere!!!!! it was Amazing to see that both sides of our family showed up just for us. i was playing out side cause it was really sunny, then mom came out to me and said charlotte was going to survive!!!!!! that's why at the beginning of this page i said it was the worst day of my life but also the best!!! and this will end with i love buster and I absolutely know that i will see him again. the end. (Some of the facts aren't quite correct in here, but I'm going to leave them in since this is Ruby's writing. For instance, I never asked Warner to come with me, I just biked away and he followed. Also I got home before Dad, and Xander was still there, and Greta didn't arrive until a few days later)
