......it was a dry night in .bilwert Elizabeth , the weekend energy had died down the hangover was tiring, he was off duty and was going home he worked in a bar room, the owner was a sardar ji his young daughter helped him run the bar room, his job was to deal with the drunken men amongst other responsibilities, the distance between his residence and the bar room was just two blocks walking distance but he used a bicycle, he was on his way home it was a shimmering road, this name was given to the road by himself, the street lights turned on and off by themselves for a couple of months and nobody bothered to change the bulbs, southern African cities mostly shared similar state of affairs like other cities and in the field of crime it was unbeatable
Peddling fast over the bridge he was only thinking of his comfortable bed , suddenly his gaze fell on that shinnering road on three dark silhouetted figures who were dragging forcibly a girl towards a car waiting in the middle of the road, her scooter was fallen on one side and the wheel of it was still running
It was a common scene for him, a young woman alone at night on that secluded road with its street lights not working properly driving her scooter was like a doe in a jungle full of wolves
