I survived the sinking Titanic in 1912 (In the auntie’s point of view)
Monday, April 15, 1912, 1:50 a.m.
I am with Phoebe and Enzo, I’m on the RMS Carpathia, wondering if Max is ok, because he is
stranded on the Titanic with Enzo’s dad.
(Nineteen hours earlier) Sunday, April 14, 1912, 1:50 a.m.
I woke up to Max and Phoebe playing around, and I said, “Hey, no having fun without me. Then Phoebe started muffling, “Max said he saw sea monsters. Then I said,I wouldn’t doubt it. Everyone wants to
Get a look at the Titanic. Even sea monsters.” Then our steward, named Henry, bought us some warm water, then he wandered around the ship, without my permission, I was worried he fell overboard or
something. Then, after 30 minutes, he came back, and I lectured him about how I thought he fell
overboard. He got into more trouble by his papa. He misses his mom because she died last year,
and he’s been getting into many troubles since. Then we went to breakfast and after 15-30 minutes
I went back to our suite. I was worried he might get into trouble, but I let him go around the ship
with Phoebe. After a couple of hours, they came back. We went to have dinner, then after 30-45 minutes we went to our suite to go to sleep, until Henry, our steward, told us we needed to be on the deck
because we had nudged into an iceberg just to be safe.
Until Max told me that she was trying to find him. Then he said he knows how to find her. He spoke
“We have to find lemon drops because she leaves them behind so Max can find her.” Then he told me to follow him, and then we went to the 3rd class areas, where we found more lemon
drops. Until we begged the security to let us go. Until we found Enzo and his dad. Then they yelled
her name until she came running. Then Max found a way out, so we went on the deck where Phoebe, Enzo, and I were. Max tried to get on but failed because there wasn’t enough room for all of us. Then we went to the RMS Carpathia. I was still worried if he was still out there , but 1 hour later, he came back safe with Enzo’s dad, but his feet were frozen badly. When we reached New York, Enzo’s dad said I
could take care of him until he got out of the hospital.
When I went home, I was glad that Max was safe and Enzo’s dad. When I thought back to the Titanic, I felt bad for the people stranded on the ship and didn’t make it.
