You were the talk of the town. Did it matter that the town was only 3,000 people and most were related to you? Of course not! You were the hero. Everyone loved you. And all because you risked your life, your breath, to save poor Roxy from drowning in the local fishing lake.
You happened to be at the right place at the right time, that’s what you tell people. But they all know the truth. Had it been any once else, Roxy would be dead.
You were riding your bike around the park when you heard the horrified, torturous screams and cries of little girls. You ran to see what the trouble was. You saw a mother standing at the top of the hill with her daughter and her car was falling backwards into the lake.
“Save Roxy. Please,” the girls cried.
You ran down the hill, jumped in the car without a second thought and pulled out Roxy. The family cat.
