Short Story
I was born in El Salvador. My grandmother took care of me when I was a baby, as my mother needed to work. At that time, in the 1980s, there was a war in my country. Very dangerous times.
One day, my grandmother took me to the river. She had laundry to do. Suddenly, bullets started flying in our direction. My grandmother ran to me and covered me in a tight hug, but one bullet hit her. She died that day. My grandmother loved me so much, that she kept me safe until her last breath.
