Once upon a time there was a little mother duck. She was excited. Her five eggs were finally going to hatch. She watched and counted as one by one the eggs hatched. "One duckling, two ducklings, three, four, five ducklings", she said happily. Suddenly she noticed that there was one more egg. It was bigger and whiter than the rest. "This cannot be my egg", she thought. Slowly the big egg began to crack and the strange looking duckling came up. Mother duck was surprised. The younger duckling was great and bigger than the rest. "How ugly the little one is", she thought. As the day went by, the ducklings began to grow, but the younger duckling looked different from the rest. Everybody looked at him and said, "There goes the ugly duckling". His brothers, sisters teased him all the time. The ugly duckling felt very bad. Whenever people laughed at him, he used to run away and hide behind the reeds near the lake. "Nobody loves me", he thought. One day, the duckling decided to run away from home. He swam and swam, and on his way he had many adventures.

Yesterday on my way back home from school, I had witnessed a car accident that gave me a lot of feelings. I was riding my bike on the daily road that led to my house, and suddenly a car came out of nowhere and crashed right at one of the street light. The road was empty at that moment because it was in the afternoon and people were in their room to avoid the heat, so it can be said that I was the only one to witness that scene. It seemed that there was a little child in the car, and I immediately rush to see if the people inside were alright. The mother was in shocked that she went all pale and did not know what to do while her baby was crying out loud. I knocked on the car windshield to wake her up, and then I realized that her forehead was bleeding. She unlocked the doors with a shake in her hands, and she turned over to check if her baby was fine. I took him out of the car, but his cry was even louder that I thought there must be something wrong with him. It turned out that his left arm might be broken because I could see a big bruise and it was starting to swollen. People began to gathered, and I called out for help while the mother was hugging her baby. One of the residents took out his car and offered to ride them to the hospital while some others called the police. Before that woman left, she did not forget to say thank you many times, and she told me to left my contact in her car so she could thank me more afterwards. I did not leave any of my information, but I read on the news the next day that she and her baby were safe. It was such a thrilling experience for me, and I am glad that I was able to help somebody who was in need
