Unforgettable Sad Moment In My High School

heart snapped off hearing the news of my friend's unforeseen scarring mishap


Disclaimer: This unpredicted incident happened in the year 2009 when I was in 9th grade.My friend Vivek met with frightening tragedy while he was riding bike along with his cousin sitting behind.Unfortunately, 
his brother died on spot and my friend was mercifully rescued.Attaining deep injuries was in a state of coma.
          A major shock to his family and us(classmates and teachers).Striken by grief we held him in our faith & prayers every single day for his progress & arrival.
In a month or two we heard he was normal but had required rest for few months.
    We were all excited to meet him once he came back to school though felt bitter looking at his scars everyday. Now he is perfectly all right and blissful young man.
    Recalling his mishap evokes trembling tears in my eyes even today..!!
