What a day it has been! I know, it’s barely even midday, but I nearly got into an accident this morning. Well, more like in the middle of an accident. I was just driving my way to the office and when I pushed the brakes to come to a slow stop as there was a line of cars in front of me, when cars behind me crashed.

Apparently, this male teacher (I had found out) was ‘avoiding’ the line on the right lane (where I was), and tried to get into the left lane. The woman behind him, however, had crashed his car while he was trying to do so. The man in the car in front of me got out of his car, checking things out, whether anyone had hit him. I wanted to check if everything was all right, or if I had to repair something. There wasn’t. For me, and the man in the car in front.

The other two cars had severely damaged bumpers.

The male teacher was from KB, on his way to RTB with his student to collect an award. Fortunately, my office is just right next to RTB, so the teacher asked me to get him there while he deals with the accident. On our way to RTB, I had asked the student, ‘C’, whether there was someone waiting for him at RTB. You know, maybe some friends, classmates, or other teachers. He said there was no one. So I had to call my mom up, who works at RTB to help us out, and I handed him over.

I got to the office and called my mom to make sure that he was in good hands. My mom told me that there was a teacher there. I thought ‘C’ told me there weren’t anyone there. I think he was just very shaken up. He wasn’t very much in the mood to talk. When he got out of my car, his jacket was all balled up in his hands. Poor kid. Still in primary six. I’ve experienced my first crash in my twenties, and I was freaked! Imagine someone as young as he is. Kesian eh.

What a morning, eh?

(I keep telling myself that with this horrid thing that just happened, the rest of the week is going to be swell! )
