Juan Lenju
I am Juan Lenju, brother of Julian Lenju. I am in the fourth grade at Dawn International School. I am nine years old, kind and friendly, and looking out for adventures. I like making new friends, swimming, playing football and drawing. I sketch very fast and most of my drawings end up like cartoons. That is what my grandma says. I am happy helping others and animals and even insects. I like learning new things and even languages. I communicate in Hindi with my sibling, which only we understand. Sometimes, I create on-the-spot short stories and recite them to the amazement of my granny, who says it is spoken word poetry. My aim, now is to become a footballer. I also like to make people around me laugh and smile. I like being called Dany, which is my pet name.
THRUST HEATWAVE HIGHWAYS CHAPTER 2
Rohith V Rahul
That sound was chilling, frightening almost
My eyes were sealed and shut so much that it felt like I was in the midst of a black hole
Every second it felt like daggers impaling into my body
I prayed to God to never let this happen to my family or any others. I used what I thought was the last moments of my life to think about my children
I hope they become successful I silently said in my mind
Few seconds passed, I felt no pain enter my body
Some more seconds passed and I felt nothing
Weary and scared I opened my eyes
I felt scared but nothing could have prepared me for the sight I saw
I was alive and well and still driving
The car that was about to ram me was still behind me
And I looked elsewhere and saw that other cars were passing me and going beside me and what not
With a sigh of relief, I continued on the road
That day was as usual pretty uneventful just boring office work
After my work was finished, I felt curious I had left work early today and decided to do a little bit of investigation
The car that had tried to ram me I wanted to enquire about it and that’s why
I headed over to the nearest police station and file a complaint
Thanks to my cars satellite navigation I found out that the nearest police station was 5.3km away
It also told me that it would take me 16minutes due to some mild traffic
After I reached the police station I got out and went inside
The outside of the police station was sort of mucky and dirty the inside was much cleaner thankfully
“Welcome and how may I help you sir” a woman police greeted me she was seated behind a computer
“Hello do you have any complaints for this car?” I replied
‘Which one? Do you know the number of it or anything” she replied back
“Yes, I do know the number”
After I told her the number, she inputted it onto a database on a computer
After some time, I knew she had gotten an answer from the computer although I couldn’t see her screen
My guess was right because a couple of seconds later she responded with this
“a brown colour sedan I may assume”
“Yes”
She told me that the car had 19 complaints and 13 fees to pay
“Well today I had a funny incident with that car, it almost tried to kill me”
I showed her the video footage from my dashcam and told her the rest of the story of how this car had almost hit me and may have almost taken my life
“Thanks for letting us know “the policewoman replied
That day I went back and slept. next morning I received a call from an unknown number
“hello”
“Are you Mr. Hrithik?”
“yes, I am Hrithik”
“I -I I called yo-you to tell s…thing”
“I can’t hear you, the lines shaky”
“do-don’t go t-t-to work your being assassinated right now”
“what”
“yes, peop people are try try to ki…”
“I can’t hear you bhai”
“Come to saplagi garden chai today at 4:30pm”
The line disconnected
“This random stranger could be lying or maybe pulling my leg but the urgency of the man seems frighteningly real.
Finally I decided “Fine, ill go even if it’s bogus or not”
