Bike no more...really
We escaped death.
It was something i think i won't forget for the rest of my life.
This afternoon qil and me crashed on the road. It was raining. His bike skidded across the white line and we both fell. It was in the middle of the road.
The bike landed on qil's right leg. It all happened in a second. All i remembered was my head(luckily there's a helmet on) and arms hit a car which stopped right beside us. Phew! Mind you, it's right after the expressway(BKE exit into Bukit Panjang) and you would have expect all the cars to be speeding there. Luckily again, all the vehicles were moving slowly. I wouldn't want to imagine if those cars were moving real fast while we're bothflat on the floor.
After the crash qil lay motionless on the road. I was damn panic. I thought something really bad happened to him.But i quickly stood up and saw his legs shaking. He was holding his legs in pain and i carried him to safety. Luckily he was alright. Then i quickly pushed his bike to the side, with help of some strangers who stopped their cars just to help us. I'm really grateful to them.
After everything had cleared, his bike was in a bad state. His rear mirror broke and the front had kinda movedout of position. Those gona need some repairs. But not to worry, we're still in a good shape.
I can't help but feel guilty for everything. It wouldn't have happened if i didn't ask a favour from qil. He would have gone home safely. I'm so sorry bro.
Overall it just reminds me of those childhood years when i fell from my bicycle. It was a minor one. Luckily.
