Beginning of thaw.
Pain.
An emotion better described by feeling than words.
But what he felt was not pain.
It was numbness.
A numbness that froze whatever was left of him.
Froze his brain to even command his body a single action to move.
Froze his body to even move a muscle.
And when he had accepted his fate and predicted his end.
When his whole life had flashbacked in front of his eyes and come to a dead end.
An external force came.
A force that was enough to throw his body away from the zooming car's path.
As soon as his body landed on the pavement and his hands broke the fall a sound was heard that silenced all the other voices around him.
The sound was enough to end the screeching voice of the car and the honking horns of the cars.
His eyes could only see the cemented grey colour of the pavement in front unaware of the seeping blood of someone else behind his back.
He looked up to see where he was and found worried looking face of his mother in front of him.
