Question

Haire, 19, with five friends, got into his car at around 10 p.m., and went to a party. They’d driven on the streets often,     they couldn’t find the house, and Haire’s iPhone GPS wasn’t working.

He had to drive into a parking place by a small lake to see       his car’s GPS could help. Before Haire could stop the car, his friend Sawin, 19, looked up from the backseat and saw a pair of     lights from the water about fifty yards away. “There is a car in the water!” he cried.

In the darkness, the boys could hardly see     through the windows. “We thought we had to get this man out of there now, or he was going to die,” says Haire.

He and Sawin jumped into the cold water and     hard to the sinking car. Inside, Miguel Hernandez was holding the steering wheel and looking up in fear.

Haire     the car first and helped Hernandez roll down the window, and he opened Hernandez’s seat belt. Then water began     into the car, causing it to go down to the bottom of the 15-foot-deep lake.

Haire and Sawin     Hernandez out of the car and took him back to the shore as the   car went down completely into the darkness below.

“Some things happened sometime, and it was hard for people to     ,” says Haire. “We left my friend’s house at a certain time, didn’t have to stop at any red lights, and got     .” Sawin agrees, “If we had showed up 30 seconds later, he probably would have been dead.”
