It was the 27th of August, 2011.

Amit had left early from his theatre rehearsals to attend to a prior engagement. According to him, his day had gone brilliantly till then. A lot of creative ideas flooded through his mind as he walked towards the college gate with his metro friend to head home.

4:16 pm

As he was exiting the gate Amit spotted a dog barking at a kid. The kid was collecting plastic wastes and putting them in his bag along with a friend. Moments later the dog charged at the kids and they started running towards the center of the road. What the kids didn't notice was that a motorbike was coming their way from the other side.
