Driving down a road to move into my new apartment, just as Nathaniel leaned against the back of the ambulance with a stale ginger-ale the sweet older woman from dialysis gave him when he brought her back from an appointment.

But we were married a year later.
Walking my dog around the schools near my home. I was on my way back home, I could the Main Street clearly. An ambulance turned down a street that my friend lived on. I had a gut feeling submerging was wrong. I called get immediately. She didn't answer. I found out later that her father died from a heart attack.
