Best friends for life By. Debra Hart 1/18/07

Hi am Sandra. This is the story about two close friends that’s ends with a tragic death.

Annie and I was inseparable. We walked to school every morning together, talked on the phone every minute we wasn’t together and never got bored of each other even thou we constantly saw each other or talk on the phone to one another. One day and I went shopping. It was on a Friday I would never forget this day. Annie and I was planning to go to a party that night. We decided we were going to dress a like. We had plan this day for weeks she baby sated and I ran errands for the elder people who lived on my block and did extra house work around the house to earn money. That Friday we walked into a clothing store that sold denim jeans that was called apple bottom we have always wanted a pair . we had finally had enough money to buy a pair. Annie had just tried on a pair of the apple botton jeans she looked great in them. I told her you looked great in them. I tried on a pair she said girl you working them jeans so we decided to buy them. But before we could pay for the jeans two men ran in the store with masks on their faces. They shouted this is a stick-up. Annie and I grab each other. We held on to each other like there wasn’t no tomorrow. We never thought this would be our last day we would be together. The two mask men was pointing a gun at the sales man. Annie was so nervous that she dropped her cell phone on the floor. I guess scared one of the mask men. He turned around very quickly and shot annie in the chest. Annie looked in my eyes and said I love you and fell into my arms. I started hollowing they told me to shut up but when annie fell to the floor I didn’t hear anything didn’t care about anything. I only knew my best friend was shot and bleeding I guess after I wouldn’t stop hollowing the two mask men got scared and ran out the store thinking some one was going to hear me and come inside. The sales man immediately called 911 the ambulance and police arrived very quickly but to me it was felt like hours before they came. When we got to the hospital I knew something was wrong the was the nurses was looking. I called annie parents they was their in seconds. A doctor called the family in a small room but I didn’t go in there I just wanted to see my best friend. I ran in the back where annie was the nurse had just put a cover over annies face that’s the only thing I remember before waking up in a hospital bed remembering my best friend is gone.
