English Challanges

I sat on my porch in my ripped jeans and a oversized hoodie listening to the boy from across the street playing his guitar softly as I started deeply getting into the sound of his music and slightly falling asleep I started to see birds flying over me and then I heard a loud noise and Explosion my heart started beating really fast . I then saw cars crashing into each other it was Terrifying to witness.

I looked outside the window to see I the boy was ok but there was nothing but his guitar sitting lonely a loude noise from the door was in action I was not expecting anyone not with this going on I loocked around the corner and saw my mum and sister walking in my heart was at a slow Pulse again
