Hello CC
Hello Imara. What would you like to talk about today?
Nothing. Everything. I am not sure.
What's wrong Imara?
I think I saw someone die today.
What did you do about it?
Nothing. I closed my eyes, and walked away.
Shouldn't you call the police or an ambulance? I can give you the number if you don't have it.
Oh no. The police cannot do anything if there are no witnesses and this was an accident anyways. People get crushed under things falling from buildings all the time.
But aren't you a witness? Witness: a person who sees an event happening, especially a crime or an accident.
Ah no. I conveniently happened to be looking the other way when it happened.Just like how that day people looked the other way during the incident.
