Sometimes.... somewhere!

I had just crossed the road and headed for the bookstore which was just a few meters away when I saw a blind man on the opposite side of the road. The man was asking for help to cross the road. As there was no one nearby so I went to the opposite side of the road and helped the man in crossing the road.

I said bye to the man and was headed for the book store when I heard a loud noise. An accident or a tire burst, and within seconds a fully loaded truck jumped from the flyover and landed exactly over the book store. If I would not have helped the blind man I would have been inside the book store at that moment.

I was stunned to see what had just happened and turned back to thank the blind man. What I saw sent shivers down my spine.

The old man was still standing on the opposite side of the road exactly at the same place and asking for help to cross the road.

My mind went numb.
