“Yes, I will be there at sharp 2100 hours Aunt May, I promise,” Peter said and hung up the call.

Peter was hanging upside down at a height from the ground with the help of a thread of web stuck to an iron pole. All the people moving on the ground seemed like ants walking in a queue. The world seemed more beautiful this way. Everything was upside down including all the buildings, the people moving inside the buildings and all the plants he could see around himself. Even the wind that touched him seemed to be upside down but of course, it was not possible. He wished he could live all his life upside down, everything in reverse way. He wished he could make the Earth upside down so that the good will be bigger as compared to the bad in the world.

“But the earth is a sphere, you dumbass! It is symmetrical. If you turn it upside down, there will be of no difference,” he kind of scolded himself for his stupid thought.

This was his occasional place which was quite close to his heart because this was the only place in the whole world which used to let him think in peace. Coming from his work after everyday, he used to hang out in this same place everyday whenever he had free time. Not to mention, he used to hang upside down if you didn't guess till now. Obviously, he didn’t have to wear his creepy red suit while hanging in there as nobody could see him at that height, not even Daredevil! He hated his suit, he hated wearing it and he hated the way he looked when he wore it. In short, he hated his suit but one needs to do the things that aren’t close to our heart for the betterment of the humankind. Though he thought that he had done nothing for the city but he was a savior. He fought as hard as he could along with the Avengers to win over the mighty Thanos. (Spiderman is Alive, yeah. Watch Avengers infinity to know how he resurrected!)

The entire time Thanos had one goal, to wipe out the half of the universe and he did it. He did it with the snap of his fingers, just like that. He cleaned half of the universe. Everyone lost something, someone but nothing was permanent in this world. His deed established the peace all over the universe. People were no more hungry for anything. Everyone was satisfied up to the brim. Sometimes, the bad guys do the good deeds and Thanos had become one of those bad guys.

Peter lost Mary Jane in it and he thought he was responsible for her death. He thought that he could have saved her but there was no escape from the death and the fate. He thought he could have done more and saved the people of his city and just like that, he thought that he failed the city.

New York was a much better place than before to live. The cops had no work but to sit on their tables, resting their hands on their flat bellies and joke about each other. There were no criminals anymore. The best way to put it would be that there were less criminals as there was no one greedy for anything. There were still some bad guys out there. Some people were just too stubborn. They couldn’t change themselves even if they wanted. They just like walking with keeping this phrase ‘Be yourself’ in their arse.

Peter’s cell vibrated. He pulled his cell out from his chained pocket and found a notification on it. ‘HELP ME SPIDY’. He had developed an app with the help of an underground software developer whom he met while catching a drug dealer. The motive of the App was to save the needy people from the bad guys. If you are in trouble, you just needed to open the ‘HELP ME SPIDY’ app and click on the ‘HELP!’ Button. Spiderman would then get the notification with your current location. He did get some pranks though. People just clicked the HELP button to get a selfie with him. Modern world! This could have been a prank too but he had enough time until his dinner date with Aunt May.

“Time for work, Peter Parker,” Peter muttered to himself and jumped to the top of a building. He opened his bag and wore his creepy suit. He hated it but he loved being behind the mask and he loved doing good things for the city. He shot a thread of web from the wrist-mounted device on his suit and jumped off the floor. At the very next moment, he found himself in the air, cutting the air with his body and marching forward like a warrior. He was a warrior. After a few SHOOTS and JUMPS, he reached his destination. He rested himself gently on the wall of a building and clung to it. No one noticed him. He saw four guys talking with a young girl in a very resentful tone. He never liked when someone talked to him with that tone.
