the handle of the door and part of the seat. My heart was racing and my head started to hurt from the spinning. It happened in mere seconds but it felt so much longer. The car skid across the pavement and then stopped as we hit the fence, the one thing that kept us from flying off the edge. Emotions were flaring and my dad was trying to calm my mom. My brother was crying and my cousin was scared to death, but.....I was fine. I didn 't know why, but.....I was just fine. The only fear that I felt…
