A search for the afterlife.
(At a metro station)
Me, Whether I shall be the hero of my life or whether that station shall be held by someone else, these pages must show.

To begin my life from the very beginning-

Meh, doesn't really suit on a highschool boy telling the story of his life while sitting alone on a station bench. To be honest, the noise of all the trains passing by never bothered me, it just made me detached from this ironical thing we call life, only to fall back hard when the train has passed.Though it is kind of amusing for me, I'm not sitting here to pleasure myself with the feeling of death, I'm just waiting for my train to get to my school. Yes, I'm for real a highschool boy.

(INSIDE THE TRAIN)
Though i just described my life in the most philosophical way i could, it isn't that interesting, it wasn't till the day I saw you smile.

I remember, the first time i saw you was the shittiest day i ever had, well not because of you,but if you haven't guessed it yet I don't enjoy living my life like I should, and to add the cherry, I was punished for something I didn't really do, i don't actually know what was i punished for because I wasn't really paying any attention in the class to be fair,but i recall it was something related to someone throwing a chalk on my teacher.

Well the chalk came from my direction, so i was held accountable for it, i did put up a very bad argument with the teacher but yeah i was punished for it nonetheless. It was a boring class anyway. But then I saw you, across the hall, I was stunned, I never thought or realised a human or something can ever be this beautiful, I swear when I saw you smile, I felt like I just had a rebirth,but it was for a mere few seconds cause I soon realised who I really was, nothing.

You passed by me, but I don't think our eyes ever met when you did, I don't remember, did they?

You were like a dream, so just like that i soon forgot about you, well cause we never met again, and I used to think I repel anything beautiful or anything with meaning.

But if it was our fate or something I don't know, we met again, it was raining and we both forgot our umbrella that day, well i don't even know if you even realised that day that it was me but it was very awkward for me to share the same shed with you, without having a courage to say anything. It was for the first time I ever felt this way.
I wanted to say something so bad, so i gathered whatever courage I had and after thinking for a while I came up with an icebreaker "Forgot your umbrella as well?"
I know it was stupid,but as soon as I was about to say it, I was maybe saved? But interrupted by one of your friends who brought an umbrella for you.

"Perfect timing" I murmured.

Well just like that, our eyes never met and you were gone. After a while I just decided to get wet and rush to the railway station, not a smart idea though, I ended up having a cold on a weekend.


After a few weeks, there was a night festival in our city, which brought loads of fairs and other stuffs in our city.

I decided to check one out one night as I was bored and my mum insisted me to go as it was the last day of the fair, so I did. It was fairly crowded for the last day, people seemed to have a lot of fun. To be honest I kinda felt a little out of placed.
But then I saw something I had completely forgotten about.
'The bumping carts' the sign read.
Oh how bad of a nostalgic trip it was for me after seeing that sign, I can't express. I used to love that thing when I was a kid, so I just decided that I had to take a ride there.

I was already...
