Ms. Shorter

In elementary the earliest memory I had was when I was in first grade. I remember when we were in recess, my teacher Ms. Shorter will always run around the school about two times or less. But one day Ms. Shorter was running around school and when recess was over we went back to the classroom she wasn’t there. I remembered I asked the T.A. where was Ms. Shorter, she told me and the rest of the class that our teacher was in the hospital because she got runned over by a car. She had broken her leg in to two pieces.
I did not understand but when I went home I told my mom what had happened in school and she explained it to me and I understood. The next day we had a substitute, she was an old lady with white hair and she was wrinkled and was I remembered she was very mean. The next day we had another substitute and she nicer than the previous one we had. Ms. Shorter didn’t come for at least a month, the next month after that we got nice letters from Ms. Shorter, the cards were light green and they were shaped like a heart. I remembered she wrote a letter to each student saying something special. I don’t remember what mine said. But what I do remember was that the sub was reading my letter to me, and she began to cry because she was a close friend of Ms. Shorter.
Then past one more month and Ms. Shorter came back to school to start teaching the class again. When she came back I was happy because I missed her dearly. When she was feeling better she began to run again. Now that I think about it I start to laugh but at the same time I feel sad for what happened to her.
