Personal Narrative: Rashawn

Decent Essays
As we drive into the storm all I can see and taste is dust.
On a cold, rainy day one of my best friends Rashawn suddenly started seeing cracks under his feet, the bridged started to collapse and Rashawn tumbled into the water, following him was a peace of the bridge. My other friend and I quickly jumped in after him. The fast moving water made it hard to swim. We got to the bottom and Rashawn was trapped under the water by the cement, we got him free but when he got to the surface of the water we lost him. After minutes of screaming and yelling, I finally found Rashawn on the beach. I called Nicole back to the beach. When Rashawn fell in the water I thought he was a gonner, but Nicole's quick thinking was to jump in the water
