My Sister Died in a Car Crash, but Mom Told Me to Let It Go

Summary

My sister, Sophie Shaw, had taken the civil service exam twice before. On her third try, she finally came in first in the entire city, beating the runner-up by a landslide.

On the day I drove her to her interview, a car came barreling straight at her.

By the time the ambulance arrived, it was already too late.

In five short seconds, I watched Sophie go from alive and full of hope to completely still.

In the end, our cousin Rachel Morgan, who had placed second, got the job.

And the person behind the wheel was none other than another of my uncle's children, Yale Morgan.
