What happens???

After you die, you are taken to after life where you encounters a complete stranger who pins a blame on you for taking his life. A millions of thought crosses your mind. How can an innocent child kill someone? If it is a dream,let me awake from it. But sadly it ain't  a dream. The next thing you does is not believe a single words of him. Until he tells his story.......

One story viewed from two different angles.....

From one angle... In a damp moisty morning, the sun grappled the deep blue azure skies and bought an indispensable warmth. An isolated old sleepy city woke uo to hear a blaring alarm of an unpleasant cacophony. A young passionate boy with bright eyes, broad shoulder, and floppy hair with ball on his feet, hobbled down the deserted alley. In a frantic attempt to keep the ball in the air, each second the ball landed on his feet, with composed posture, he kicked the ball.

With the devilish smirk on his face, he kicked the ball high in the air and sprinted, following it. In next moment, the screeching car zoomed and just missed him. He grabbed the ball from the surface and dashed towards the old building where he took a sigh of relief. That was close, he pondered.

From another angle... An avid young man borrows a vehicle from his friend to meet his girlfriend waiting on another end. Having a little trouble of operating but he was too determined to keep it on a track. With the bumpy car on the crzay road anfmd the Beatles on the background, he hit the road. Abruptly out of nowhere, a young boy appeared infront of his car. With shivering hands, he turned and twisted the stirring. He missed him by few inches. He peered out of the window to find that boy was nowhere to be spotted. He breath heavily. With heavy heart, he started the engine.

He swallowed hard because deep down he was haunted by the petrified scene. His mind was vibrating with millions of thought. He was too wrapped up inside the endless thought that he didn't see a huge cargo trunk making its way towards him. When his senses were hauled back to reality, it was too late for him as his hands were too numb to turn the stirring. Spending few seconds in the air and the debris of the destorted car and the driver plummeted on the surface. He breath his life to an end.

( When one dies, another lives )
