It was such a trivial task, such an easy task, and yet he failed it.
It was none other than crossing the road.
It was a dark dawn, the moon waxing. Stars, could not be seen, clouds above. He had just arrived at school, early as he always was.
The car was stopped from across the school, and all he had to do was to cross the road. Cars sped by, some passing and some dropping.
In a flash of anxiety, he ran across the road as fast as he could. Alas, he did not notice a car coming, and by the time he noticed the orange headlights, it was too late.
A car hit him hard, causing him to collapse onto the ground, losing consciousness. The last thing he saw, flashing lights of orange.
Then he was dead.
