100 Words a Day 929

Jessica looked up from her chemistry book when she heard the tires screeching. As she watched, a dusty sedan careened into a pole holding up powerlines. The impact bent the pole and snapped the black cables, sending them whipping back and forth. A few moments later, several people were in the street, some standing around, some screaming. A few people ran to the car and tried to pry the doors open. Jessica could hear someone calling 911.

“What happened?” Jessica jumped. She hadn’t heard her sister enter.

“Car accident,” she replied.

“Anybody dead?”


“Uh, I really hope not,” Jessica replied.
