On a warm autumn morning with a gentle breeze blowing, an ordinary youth was cycling on his way to school. As it happened, the youth had overslept. He was in a rush. Having just started university a few weeks ago, he was looking forward to the lectures of the day, as well as hanging out at the bar with his newly acquainted friends, maybe even having a beer with that cute girl from class.

    That time had not yet come. He was tired, unfocused, and in a rush. So he took a shortcut across an unknown residential area in order to save just a few minutes, hoping to make it to work just in the nick of time.
