All my memories flashing before my eyes (to be honest,I mainly remembered the meal I just had) I closed my eyes tightly and wait for the truck to hit me. Suddenly I feel an arm wrapped itself around my waist, a hand turned my face to his chest and he hug me tightly. I can feel myself being yanked off from road.

I was gasping for air. My heart pumping crazily. Baffled. Frozen as if my feet were cemented to the sidewalk. I look up.

Seriously, I was totally really frozen. A pair of brown eyes was stabbing directly into mine.

“ Are you okay?” He asked. Hell not! I was just about to be bounced by a truck!

“I—I—” stammeredly,I can not utter anything. My soul flew away just now. He loosen the hug. “You’ll be fine.” He said as he crossed to the other side of the road and gripped the shoulder of the girl who pushed me. Look like he’s telling the girl something while planting his eyes into the girl’s.

Ryan came to me as fast as lightning,so does Erik. Lucky me because there weren’t a lot of people nearby. If not,it will be quite a chaos.

“You’re okay,Ara!? Oh,shit! I thought I’d lost you!” Ryan said as he checked on me. I brushed off Ryan’s hand on my shoulder gently.

“Ryan..I’m fine..” I lied.

Even my heartbeat rate haven’t cooled down yet, I’m totally not fine. My full scale want-to-buy-choco-bars pressure went to zero. Before I knew it, my knees gave way and before I fall flat on the floor,Ryan caught me and scoop me into his arms. Dad frantically went to us and ran his hand on my head.

“Ara,sweetheart,are you okay?” I heard dad asked,a little panicking hued his tone.

Erik who stood by dad peeked at the girl who tried to assassinate me. Half-awaken,I heard dad’s voice adamantly asking the girl, “Are you trying to kill my baby girl!?”

“Dad…” I wanted him to not make things more complicated but my voice just trailed off on its own.

“It’s okay,sis.It’s okay.” Ryan said. Then, I slowly rest my dizzy head onto Ryan’s chest. Then,all went blurry and slowly went black.

Bonnie and I were walking past a few booths in Mystic Falls Summer Carnival. We were both thirteen and were too busy with with our phones. We went to the carnival with Elena and Caroline but they had been MIA (missing in action). The twins did joined us but they went to hang out with Jeremy,Elena’s little brother. Well,they in the same age so its natural they become friends. Suddenly,Bonnie pulled my hand into a booth. She waggled her eyebrows and said, “My grams can see future,ya know! You want to see her?”

Well,grams that she meant was her grandmother,Miss Sheila.

“Of course! Is this her booth? I don’t know you have a spot in this carnival!” I replied. Bonnie giggled again and pulled me deeper into the booth. “You have to hold my gram’s hands if you want to know your future!” I heard Bonnie added.

“Hi,Ms.Sheila!” I said when I saw Bonnie’s grandmother standing surrounded by the candles. She smiled. Then I noticed that there was a big star drawn with something like white ash underneath us. The booth was empty because we entered when a couple left the booth.

“Palm reading? This is cool. Ms.Sheila! Can you see my future?”

Before Ms.Sheila can even reply, I ran towards her and linked our hands. The candles’ flames blazing all of sudden,sending a rush of hot heat to all of us. Bonnie was shot backwards by the flames. Something like an electricity current rushing through me, I pulled away my hands. I look up to Ms.Sheila and I saw her eyed widened in shock,she fell onto her knees. As our hand disconnected,the flames of the candles suddenly vanished completely. Miss Sheila’s eyes fixed on me.
