Personal Narrative: My Favorite Babysitter

The bell finally rang at my little elementary school. I left my home room, and walked down the white hallway. There were a set of steps On each side of the school but we weren’t supposed to use the left side but we always dead anyways.

I told her that she’s my best friend and that if I die the new babysitter killed me. Of course she told me that wasn’t going to happen it would be ok. But she had never met Laura.
