"Do you know what happened after that?" Caroline asked as she guided Alyssa across the street.
"No, I don't," replied Alyssa as she sat down on the bench to rest.
"Well, you almost died," said Caroline, "I started crying and you came back to life. It was a miracle."
"Wow," said Alyssa, looking up at her sister with big eyes, "that's amazing."
"It sure was," said Caroline, "It sure was."
