Descriptive essay
Five years ago, this very day a tragedy occurred in the Raya household. I know this because I am a member of this household and I was present during this catastrophe. It was during the time I was attending the 6th grade. My parents had been on vacation for the past week and they had come back tonight.

She told them to get out of the house, but they didn't budge because they did not believe her. The firefighters arrived twenty minutes later.

She quickly repeated what the neighbor had said. I wont forget this day because it just shows how lucky we were to get out of the house with perfect timing. The captain of the firefighters had this astonished look upon his aging face.
