Well well! We are beginning with a new arc where I would be uploading all my memories here. These things are the closest to my heart and that's why I remember them still now. I remember some of my old childhood memories too but I will tell them in another chapters. I was nearly 9 years old and still living in Haryana at that time. I had a cool cycle and a cycle gang too (sounds fun). So before moving on, I hope you are having a good day! Enjoy reading!
I, Purrfect, in year 2014 (maybe) was very interested in cycling and stuff. Yup, cycling is one if the dreams I wanna achieve. Actually the dream is that I wanna cycle around cities alone, or maybe with 2 or 3 people. Not more than that. Anyways, this story begins during in my cycling days (sadly I don't cycle now because it broke down and due to busy life it's hard to go outside of my house). So, I was casually cycling around my neighborhood with my one friend. He was 6 years older than me lol. I was 9 and he was almost 15 or 16 I don't really know. It was evening time, around 7 pm. We both used to cycle together in the neighborhood. We have many crossroads in our area.

I used a small reference to tell the story. So the road marked with red sketchpen or whatsoever it is called, is the main road from where many vehicles passed. The road marked with blue color is the lane in which many houses were built beside the road.
Alright, here we continue. Me and ny friend was moving through lane to lane and for that we had to cross that main road to move ahead. My friends was kinda athletic and he usually moved at higher speeds and obviously I was jealous of him. Who doesn't like speed? We both were moving and then we had to cross the road. But 20 seconds earlier, I saw that the road is quiet empty and I thought to overtake my friend with much greater speed and higher gear! I successfully overtook him but the main problem starts here. I used to recognise the coming vehicles with their headlights, means their headlight would reflect on the road while moving. So, one foolish guy was coming on a bike with his headlights off and I couldn't predict his coming vehicle and in no time, we both got crashed. But luckily the bike guy didn't fall whereas I got raised up in the air and fell on the main road. My cycle's handle got stuck somehow on his bik's handle but that driver was safe. I fell on the ground and I wasn't much injured, so I quickly apologized to that biker and went away with my cycle. Meanwhile, my friend helped me to get me home. When I got home, I learnt that my cycle brakes got broken badly and I had injured my right arm (whose bruises are still there on my arm). My mum scolded me and banned me from going out for few months.
The story ended right here, but can you even think how lucky I got? I could have been hit by a car instead of a bike. Or when I fell on the ground, another car could hit me. I was lucky that there was no car behind that biker. I could have died right there, heavily injured with some surgeries. But got very lucky and got saved by God's grace. I still think what if that vehicle was a car. I would have been resting in pieces by now. Or maybe I would have broke some of my body parts. But no, I am safe and secure. Everything is fine without any heavy injuries. Thank god! I lived. I know it's my mistake but don't you think that the biker should have turned his lights on?
