All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they areCome on, baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby, take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby, I'm your manLa, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, laSong: 'Don't Fear The Reaper' by Blue Oyster Cult

Honk! Honk! Honk!
"C'mon Yaar! Let me through I'm gonna get late.!"
Honk! Honk! Honk!
I yelled and continued to blow the horn, pleading and demanding them to clear the way.
"What seems to be the trouble, dear?" Gramps suddenly came up behind me, scaring me a little. I sigh in relief and gestured towards the commotion in the middle of the road just a few meters away from the house.
"Look at this, they didn't get a better time to fix the sidewalk and there those cartwheels are stuck too. How the hell am I gonna get my bike out of here like this? I have to go to the admin office today before classes too?"
"Why do you have to be at the admin office? Are there any pending documents?"
"No, actually one of the compulsory social service subjects got cancelled, so they were gonna assign a new subject to the students from that class. I had to collect the classroom number, schedule, and syllabus for the new class. Howeverrrr, I am gonna *Honk! * BE *Honk! * LATE!!!! GET OUT OF THE WAY!!!!" sigh "Is running people over always a crime, Gramps?"
Instead of answering my question Gramps just laughed.
"Heyyyy, don't be insensitive," I whined and Gramps tried to stop his laughter which slipped from every now and then.
"You know what, why don't you park your bike back at home and I will get my metro card. You take the metro for one day. The station is not very far from here." He suggested. Taking a look at the mess that doesn't seem to be clearing any moment I decided to take the metro. I parked my bike and Gramps soon arrived with his metro card, "Take an auto to the station from the main road."
"Cool. Seeya Gramps."
"Be careful and do not use earphones while on the road, it's not your Himalayas." My head dropped with a pout but soon I couldn't stop my laughter as I heard Gramps mumbling to himself, "The city roads are crowded with immature amateur drivers. One can't even walk the roads safely wit-" soon his voice faded as I walked onto the main road. I was about to call the auto or look for a bus but at the same time not wanting to waste time waiting I started walking deciding to hire one when I will come across any. Just as I saw a bus pass, I saw Sri on his bike. I was about to call him when I noticed he was busy looking or more like following a bus. I looked at the bus and it didn't take me long to figure out what was happening when I saw a certain red flannel shirt-wearing guy enter the bus. As soon as I realized the commotion that was about to happen, I put a heavy stone over my excited heart and almost ran to the nearest metro, hoping that I would take a different metro than the one JD would take.
Soon I successfully boarded the metro and let out a content sigh when the doors closed without a specific flask stopping the doors from closing. My heart and brain were screaming at me for not waiting to watch the fight, "WHAT A BUZZ KILL YOU ARE?" Harls and Isis screamed at me.
