           The day seemed normal, as people can have a hectic day from time to time, but not near death experience. The building, I worked in caught fire. Though, people would have escaped easily, if it wasn't for those so-called sheep. Blind as bats and dumb as cats. No, even they have senses, it'll be wrong to call them that.

         The information was perceived by our brain much earlier than the fire alarm. It was a scintilla of fire but constantly dangerous if not being controlled upon, but could have dealt with, if the panic hasn't taken over the staff. Their aberrant movements blocked the entrance, and a few of them even thought that it's a pleasant opportunity to take some heat and throw some punches and it was obviously responded with a reaction, which reminded me of the Newtown law, don't know why? 

          All regards to the majestic arrival of Director Kim that calmed the situation with his commanding voice and mysterious personality. Now when I think about it he always shows up in the worst case scenarios, apart from that it's impossible to find him anywhere. Everything was under his control in a couple of minutes but a few people got severally injured and other received minor bruces due to the hustle and magnificent sparring...................... But I must say he is well disciplined, well organized and can handle any situation quickly, smoothly and efficiently.

          These are the thoughts in my mind while I was driving my black car of an unknown model, which became one because I don't know it's model and it wasn't bought by me. To me every car is a car, so why make a fuss about it. I desired to reached home more than anything and it's obvious and natural for me to want to have a bit of rest after such a dreadful day.

          My left hand was on the steering wheel and other on the was slouching, half out the window. The evening wind was blowing in that unpopulated area of trees population, fencing the car and touching my elbow, swiftly to my hand. The pleasant feeling I got from the wind was cut out by the pain in my leg, a reminder of the bruise, and what had happened today at the work. At that very moment, I found out that I'm out of fuel because you see, my car is not moving an inch further. I got out of the car, as soon as I shut the door back, a strong gust of air pass by me from the right. I unconditionally turned over to look......... air, maybe? But what I found was not some invisible creature but a model of white, white car. I couldn't be happier, the thought of a life saver. I immediately ran toward the car. Though happily, I approached it, despread I got upon reaching. There was no one in the car. I started inspecting it at my own convenience and found that the tire of the car is punctured. I had a heavy feeling in my heart from the moment I got out of my car. The gusts of air were still blowing and I could see the arrival of dark dusky clouds. I was still standing by the car, the car of white with a punctured tire, with a dejected heart and misty weather, at the sight of an evening in the bright light. After a few minutes, I couldn't take it anymore. I question myself why am I standing here? What made me think that there is an owner to the car, though anybody would think that if there is a car then there must be it's owner nearby. But that thought didn't satisfy me, I don't know if the owner gonna get back. I felt like I'm in the middle of nowhere and nobody would ever come here. For the owner I don't know, he could have been f****** dead by now. Strange, but these were my thoughts, these were my words which I mumbled to myself, and which I regretted the most my entire life. Maybe I had some trauma from the event that occurred in the morning and which left me unable to think straight. People say that you have power, a single word that comes out of your mouth can change everything around you. Your words have the power to change into a reality that's why you shouldn't use them thoughtlessly. I believed it since I was a child.
