Fearful Moments

It was in the month of February while I was in class 11. I was on my way to home for lunch with my friends. There are two ways to go. All my friends went by shortcut but something inside my heart made to me to take the main road. I could see a crowd of people. When I reached there I was feared and frightened. I saw blood like that of stagnant water in road. Yes, it was an accident and the bike was my father’s.

I asked people standing there what had happened but everyone seemed to be like me. One of them told that my father was taken to the nearby hospital. Immediately I started and reached the hospital as fast as I can. I was informed by his friends that he was taken for first aid. Within few minutes my father was taken to the X-Ray room. My father spoke to me but i could make out that he was unconscious. His body was full of blood. I saw lots of injuries in his head, hand and some scratches in legs. The doctor reported fracture in left hand and lower jaw.

But they refused further treatment, for my father had undergone his kidney transplantation. He was given reference to the main hospital for special treatment. I was in the ambulance talking with my father all the way to hospital, as I wished him not to close his eyes. I was quiet afraid but hesitated to reveal it because of my mother’s presence. We reached the hospital and my father was taken to emergency ward. Around 7 pm doctor informed that my father was safe. I felt better. Few days after my father’s recovery, I came to know from him that incident happened just out of giddiness.

Accident #2 Cycle-1

In the eve of august 1999, I hope I was in my class seven. My father bought a new bicycle for my sister, a week before the disaster [Perusa Onnum Nadkala chumma oru effect :p]. I was very eager to ride that bicycle, though it was a feminine rider. My Mom went to native place and she was returning home .My father asked me to pick my mother since he had some work in his office. I’m so happy for gonna ride the new cycle. I started to do the assigned task.

While I was half the way I was thinking to drive closing my eyes just to gain a new experience (The day before in the news channel I saw a blind man driving bicycle). I can’t do that in my cycle as it was old and its hand bar being slack. I started riding with my eyes closed when I was in the middle of the road… I felt that I was going straight. Well everyone will have the same feel. Doubt just try [:p]… After few seconds I opened my eyes oops a collide with the lamp post.

I got some scratches and a sprain. Well I got lots of scolding and punches from my father for that accident or incident… The reason was, cycle heavily damaged… I think cycle also felt so angry on me for it made a Lot of noise while riding it from then onwards[scratches and bends .. kadak mudak]. But

” I felt happy b’coz now the new cycle too looks like my old one”

Accident #1 Auto

It was in the eve of Feb 1993, when I was in my age of 6. I was very cute and charming, having lots of girl friends. I and my sister were playing suddenly some sort of noise disturbed me I rushed outside and started running towards auto. My mom asked me to come but I didn’t listen to that. It was the same auto in which I use to have a Pleasure [jolly] ride with my friends in the evening after the school hours… The auto driver was a known person to all our colony members. On that day as usual we all went for a ride. I was also prepared to go. I got a seat to sit.

After few minute I was lying on the turning of the road with lots of small small stones and blood bleeding. I was a bit unconscious while taken to the hospital. But I could feel the tiredness in my body. When I was awake I saw a huge bandage on my right leg. I was shocked whether I lost my leg by god’s grace it was just a fracture. I learnt that it took nearly an hour for the Doctors to remove the stones and the cleaning process …  My father asked how it happened. I was taken aback. I was sitting.

One of my neighbor cum elder friend ask him to bid goodbye [tata (:-h)] to my friends, So I joyfully got up and was looking out for the same but I was pushed out of  the auto on the turning of the road. The Auto’s Wheel was crossing my leg like that of speed breaker. I was crashed… all my colony peoples surrounded me… And I was hospitalized. The first ever thing I can’t forget in my lifetime…
