Saved a child at the cost of small injury to my knee


I am in the process of loosing my weight these days.
I was pretty happy to wear my old favorite dress back which I was not able to wear due to weight put-on

Started the day with full of enthusiasm.

Was driving my pleasure (my two wheeler) to office with a peaceful and a happy mind.

On the way to my office, there is a school  and the road is steep down.



As usual I passed the school at a very low speed.
And then I geared up my vehicle and drove at regular speed.





After certain distance, a small child suddenly rushed to the middle of the road to pick her paper-rocket.













I somehow managed it too well (I know Self-praise is no praise... but sometimes we need to :P) and stopped my vehicle all of a sudden.


And in fraction of seconds my vehicle was on my leg.
The girl was safe but my white paijama turned to black


My footwear, my favorite sandals were out of order.

Few guys rushed in and helped me out in lifting my vehicle.

And then immediately started back to office with bare legs to avoid scoldings from my boss.


I was feeling really very proud about it.

I was poised and was elevated for what I did.

After reaching office, my thoughts about the incident were :

First  : I  saved a life .... (if some lorry or Some other vehicle was there instead of my scooty .. what would happen to that small cute girl??? )

Second ... I am very  lucky .. that I didn't get injured !!  I  handled the vehicle well in that slopy area .. it just fell to side .. instead of toppling .. or throwing me upside down!!!


Third .. I have got a new pair of footwear !!! I will remember this and keep on telling every one this story
