The Effects of Others Part 2

were he made a sale on the most expensive car on the lot, his boss being so impressed gave him a raise which eventually would result in this man getting back his family and being able to buy a car of his own. our third unsuspecting stranger the young teenaged skateboarder no older than 16, was on his way to the skatepark at the time wendy had realised she was short of money for the 802 bus. just seconds after the bus departed and she had realised she had one the jackpot she let out a burst of excitement and glee, which made the young boy stop immediately to see what was going on which resulted in him narrowly missing the 802 bus. after he had realised what had happened he went on his way to the skate park were he did tricks and impressive flips that impressed a man that specialised in a skateboarding career so much that he gave him a job as a professional skateboarder and went on also to create great success. but wendy didn't give that busker 2 dollars so she was no short for cash and didn't miss the bus to by that winning scratchy instead she boarded the 802 bus, and without that 2 dollar donation it didn't inspire that busker to stay and get a recording deal instead he also hoped on the 802 bus. and because the busker didn't stay the car salesman didn't stop to appreciate the music and in doing so didn't hear the old couple wanting a car and joined the others on the 802 bus, and the boy on the skateboard wasn't distracted by wendy because she never brought the scratchy which means he never stopped for that split second and did not miss the 802 bus, instead he was struck by it making the bus to crash of a bridge and kill all of the passengers. if only wendy had made a seemingly unnoticed kind 2 dollar donation to the busker she could have save herself and three other lives but not only save but bring riches fame and happiness. imagine what ation we did or didn't make that have affected the lives of us and all around us?
