Hello guys, hope you are all doing well. There is a saying the proverb in a movie called "Vedam", goes like this " adrushtam baalenappudu aritipandu tinna pandu iruguddi", it means "If you are unlucky, eating a banana may cause your teeth to break". The first time I was watching I thought it was a joke and laughed at it. But the recent events have made me clear otherwise. On that day, I was as usual coming from the office to home for lunch on my bike. I'm pretty sure that I'm not a bad driver at driving a two-wheeler bike, I can go upto 102Km/h on a 150CC bike and I can control a 60 km/h speed bike in streets. But none of this matter on my way home, as there is a circle of three roads attached at one point on my way home. There, even professional drivers have to go at a slow speed like 5 km/h or less due to people coming from three directions and there are no traffic lights to control the traffic.

As usual, I was going on that way, I was behind of an Auto on my bike and a car was behind me. We all are going slowly and when the auto moved forward, a slight chance of road stumbled in front of me. I was in a standing position and ready to start accelerating my bike then all of a sudden the car I told that was behind me struck me from the back and I was like half a meter away from my bike and fell to the ground. Although I didn't get any injuries at that time, after going home I feel like my right leg was swollen around the ankle area. The good thing is I always hold a grip on my front brakes, when the car struck me from behind the force was intense I think. That force cut my front wire break connection and my bike fall away there itself. I was so furious with the car driver and even though I fell on the ground and my brain is still processing what happened here, I was able to stand up quickly and go to the driver in anger and said some mean words to him. I think the emotion of anger made me stand up quickly. After that, he told me that a small boy suddenly came onto the car, so I had to turn the car in your direction as I didn't think it well, he said.

On hearing that there was a small boy, I just became calm and grabbed onto my bike and ride away to my home. I still don't know why I did it. I told them at home that it was just a muscle spasm. By the time of evening, the pain was getting high. At night while going home I had to go to the doctor to check if any bone was cracked a bit. Turns out it does not and it's just like muscle spasm only. The doctor prescribed me some medication and after just one night only I did get relief from the pain. This situation made me think that even though I didn't do anything and I was just standing on my bike, my luck is not on my side and so it had happened.
