Story written from Sarah's pov

I don't remember much about my father other than some of the stories my brother would tell me. After my dad left my mom raised my brother and I on her own. She worked all the time so that we could have every thing we needed and almost every thing we wanted. Then that day changed everything. My mom had just dropped me off at my high school and was on her way to drop my brother off at work since we only had one car. They didn't make it a block from my school before the car was hit head on by a guy who fell asleep at the wheel. My mom died instantly, but my brother was hanging on. My mom's sister picked me up from school and carried me to the hospital. I sat by my brother's bedside all night.

When the sun came up the next morning, I awoke to a man in the room I had only seen in pictures, because I had blocked all memories of him from my mind years before. My dad, Eric Camden stood beside me.
