A Horrible Incident.
Yesterday I was walking to the bus stop as usual. The walk to the bus stop is usually a pretty long one. I come across a vivid junta of people, a never ending flows or vehicles and all. And there are people dressed formally for the event of going to work or college or school, may be. It is usually a two way small crowded lane that extends to the main road. There are no dividers of any sort, nor any markings on the road, nothing. Just a two way lane which usually can fit only one big truck. And if a car were to come in front of it, they have to take the side one man walking distance on both sides to cover up the whole road and with careful decisiveness one might get out of that situation without a scratch on the car, may be. So, as usual I was walking my way. One the other side of the road there was a tractor parked, unattended. May be that was there since the previous night or may be early morning. Because a dog was sleeping underneath it. When suddenly the driver starts the tractor engine. The dog wakes up shocked a bit and confused about how to get out from under it. When he starts moving the dog gets a little more awry and tries to get out from under that tractor. Then it happens which stopped me for moment to move forward. In spite of trying hard to get out from under that tractor, the dog fails to achieve coming out. Even if were to stay in the middle, no damage would have happened. But unfortunately, the driver speeds up his vehicle and goes over the dog. I was too shocked to witness that I couldn't move a step for the next few moments. The driver stops and looks back when he feels that he has run over something big and then there is a dog crying/shouting in its excruciating pain. The driver looks at me and my horrid and shocked face and realizes that he has run over the dog and speeds his way on the supposedly two way lane road. That dog still crying limps its way into the empty ground on the other side of the road.

The Confusing Words.
It is too difficult to decipher when people say two opposite solutions to the same problem. And its gets to frustrating when those intelligent people come up with third solution , probably out the universe this time. If it were more than two people, I might have thought it otherwise. But when its the same person saying A and then again Z, in a moments gap and then coming up with Ɵ (something out of world & over the head ). I am usually a calm person, or so I think. But these people make me go nuts. And believe me, its' not a pretty picture of me and you wouldn't like to watch it.
Dear Confused Idiot,
I usually thought I was the one confused about all things. But it seems like I am wrong after all. When you can jump from one side of the world to another in a matter of seconds, it becomes really difficult to maintain pace. You see, the cost of the flights are increasing these days, though they advertise as "Lowest prices ever" , well that's just the headlines followed with an big bold " * " . And at the bottom of the page or bill board or whatever, there is a line almost invisible even to the microscopic eye which reads as * Conditions Apply. So, what I am saying is stay on the ground, one firm ground and don't pretend to know everything, because clearly you don't. And know that because of your indecisiveness, other people's work is getting stopped. Get back to your senses. Else I would have to come into picture. But I know that it is just waste of my time and getting you back to your senses is just one impossible step. So, I ask you to get back yourself.

Well maybe we should choose our roof carefully :P
ReplyDeleteBut you see the driver did nothing wrong although you might not think it is so he actually felt guilty...guilty enough to escape from your looks atleast!
Opposite solutions...like what?
Yeah.
Deletehmm... Like you should do that. You shouldn't do that.
Oh my god! OH MY GOD! That guy ran over a dog and sped away on his way???? Horrible horrible man! Poor thing, it didn't know enough to just stay put in the space and try to get out undamaged :(
ReplyDeleteSuch confused people exist to wring out the lives of out people like us!!!
And don't take offense, but I love your rambling posts more than the others. Makes me think and laugh depending on the genre. I wonder how such things happen to you and you alone :P
Yeah. :(
DeleteExactly. I wonder why such people should even exist.
No offence taken. It looks more like a compliment to me. :P You see, I don't usually write anything while the reasons may be many. Lets say, I am just empty with new thoughts/ideas. So, I ramble nonsense most of the times. And when I hear that you like that, well.. isn't that a compliment?
Such things happen to everyone. If I am not wrong, more creative/funny/whatever-they-are-called things happen to others than to me. I just write about them, while others don't or keep it in their memory/mind. :P
Ahh, that's so sad. And it's even worse that the guy just drove away!
ReplyDeleteYeah. :(
