Unforgettable Scene
UNFORGETTABLE SCENE

It was one of those typical days where everything was normal. Cars and motorcycles passed by and out of sight. The noise from all directions filled the whole area like a buzzing sound. Surprisingly, people did not seem to bother by the noises at all, but rather went about with their daily business. Nobody had taken a moment to see what was happening around them on this busiest street of downtown Cambodia. There was a crash that finally caught their attention. Then, they started to search for the cause of this mystery crash.
A beautiful, eye-catching girl was riding a brand new, red Honda motorcycle, which was well-polished, along this crowded street where vehicles were moving at a snail pace while people jaywalked back and forth between this busy street. Her long black hair was blown by the wind smoothly, and her brown eyes were focusing on the traffic. She wore a typical school uniform consisting of a white shirt and a blue skirt. The embroidered school logo on her white shirt indicated that she was a student of University of Phnom Penh. At first, her attention was on the road, then for a second, she took her eyes off the road and glanced about her surroundings. Suddenly, her attention was drawn back to the road after struggling to turn away from the pedestrian who came out of nowhere. Her face turned pale, and she was in shock. At that instant, the driver who had been sitting inside the car that was parked along the curb immediately opened his door without observing whether there was anyone in the way. Unfortunately, the girl was at his door way when the door was suddenly swung opened.
The girl was thrown off her motorcycle by the swung-opened door and fell onto the middle of the road. She banged her head forcefully onto the street and immediately, blood started to ooze, forming a pool of blood on the spot. The oncoming truck was coming at a fast speed, but the girl was blacked out and still she struggled to gather all her strength

    Cruthis recalls that as she was driving, “I felt the car skid a little bit, and then I lost control and I couldn’t turn the wheel.” She remembers that when the car started to swerve, “I tucked my feet under the seat because my dad told me never to hit the brakes in this situation. I tensed my arms up so I didn’t touch the wheel and cause any more damage than was about to happen.” The car began to spin in the opposite direction. “I spun about three times before it drove straight into a ravine. It (the car) flipped over once, and then all I remember was the car being at the bottom of the ravine, blood being everywhere, and my head out the window,” states Cruthis.…

    For not the first time, Kadrea wished that she had a car, or at least a bike. Her feet ached from walking and the back of her neck prickled as someone’s gaze lingered a second too long. She took to adjusting her hair from its place bunched up on her head, pretending to look oblivious of the outside world. She heard someone speak louder than normal, but brushed it off. She paused as she came to an intersection, throwing only-half a glance down the road before she heard the voice again.…

    The lady’s piercing eyes showed inquisitiveness all through our trajectory. She had realized something we didn’t. Curiosity began to dominate me. I could hear nothing, only the drums inside my chest, fulminating. I recognized another sound; it was like a powerful vibration which grew louder and each time higher pitched, so powerful it was almost deafening. What before felt like soaring in the air now was an aggressive fight against it. A strong smell of burning fuels penetrated my nose corrupting my inner thoughts. A feeling of fear was invading the plane. Our pupils dilated when we finally understood what was happening. I took my friend’s hand, as our palms gently met I felt the warmth of nervousness. Our hands started sweating, humidity invaded our fingers but I refused to let him go. He was the only support I had. Lights went out, the vagueness of light made it more confusing, but it was too late to think. We had hit the ground, it was brutal. My head hit the front seat with such aggressiveness and power that it was inexplicable.…
