It was last summer. Me and my two friends walked my friend Skye to her house down the street. Me and my friend Madi were walking back to my house. We were a couple of feet from my house and I was talking. Turns out there was a guy high in a car coming down the street. He was so high he didn't see us.

My friend Madi doesn't like walking on the street side so I was walking on the street. I have never even been close to a car running me over, so I didn't expect it to almost happen. I couldn't hear the car coming, but somehow Madi did. I felt a precnce right as Madi turned her head to look back at the car. She saw it wasn't going to go around us and at the last second she got the strength to pull me out of the cars way.

If she hadn't done that I wouldn't be here right now. That car didn't stop once it went by, later we found out the guy died of overdose.

I believe that my great-grandma said something to Madi and that was the precnece I felt. She helped save my life that day and I thank her everyday.
