12 The Unforgettable Moments in Life
Chaos in Iowa By Alexa Robertson
Two brothers lived in a unique house In a small town in Northern Iowa. When you
walked through the front door, you entered a big, rectangular living room. You could choose to
go to the left to enter a small room with a kitchen and a dining room, or you could go right down
a long hallway lined with bookcases filled with DVDs and VHS tapes. There were cobwebs in
the bookcases. The living room had a weird design that included a screen and a glass door to the
outside.
On cold, snowy days in Northern Iowa, Dan and Shane, the two brothers, would play
rough house inside. On one of those snow days, the boys decided to play chase. As they chased
each other, they entered the living room. Dan was in the
lead and headed for the screen and glass door and to the
snow outside. In Dan’s haste, he ran towards the door,
twisting the handle to propel himself out, but the door
was locked taking the full weight of his body. His head
slammed straight through the glass! When he went
through the glass, he cut open his forehead. As he
pulled his head back through the jagged glass, he
managed to cut open his neck and had to receive several stitches. He still has this scar to this day.
The lesson learned was
never to run in the house again!
