touched by an angel Andrew 1

It was raining hard. Alicia could hardly see out her window and she was leaning forwars squinting as the windshield wipers beat back and fourth as fast as they could. She was driving slowly, trying her best to get home from school in one piece.1

The truck came zooming down the hill. The driver slmaed on his breaks, but the eighteen wheeler turck was not capable of comming to a fast hault on the soaked roads. With a scream of tires and a loud crunch of metal against metal truck and car met.2

Alicia was in shock. She could hardly figure out what had happened. She knew she was badly hurt, but she felt no pain. She looked to her right and saw a man in a white suite sitting calmly next to her. A light seemed to be shining from him. "Wh...who are you?" Alicia stammered. "Alicia, I am an angel, sent from God to be with you now at this moment." The man said jently. "Am, am I going to die?" Alicia wispered. "Yes, you are dying. I have come to bring yu to heaven, to God." Alicia looked down at her mangled body and began to cry in shock and fear. The man reached out his arm and grasped her shoulder reasuringly. "Alicia, death is a wonderful thing. God is telling you it is time to come home." Alicia looked up at the angel. "But I don't know the way." She said weakly.3

The truck driver got out of his truck and came to tha drivers door of the car. "Hello? Are you all right?" Alicia didn't answer him. "Will you take me to him? I'm scared, I don't want to be alone." The angel smiled. "That is why I am here. My name is Andrew." Andrew held out his hand and Alicia took it, and together they left the car wreck, left the driving rain, left our world, to go to what lies beyond life.
