"I was driving on a dark road. It was raining hard. Then the car made a strange noise. It stopped. I turned the key. Nothing happened. I tried again. The engine was dead. I hit the steering wheel. I was so angry. I got out of the car. The rain soaked me. I looked under the hood. I did not know anything. I kicked the tire. It did not help. I took out my phone. The battery was dead. I yelled at the sky. No one heard me. Cars passed by. No one stopped. I sat back in the car. I felt so upset. Why did this happen to me? I hit the radio. It would not turn on. I closed my eyes. I was so frustrated. Then I woke up. I was in my bed. I looked at my phone. It was working. I felt better. But I was still annoyed. I checked my car in the morning. It was fine."
