BACKGROUND MUSIC

It’s late night and I’m driving home. Same road and same lights as all the other times.

I see something in the distance, on the edge of the road.

 

Is it a body?

Maybe he was hit by a car or something, there’s a lot of blood.

Is it possible that no one around heard anything? It’s a street right in the center of the town, there are many houses and lights on everywhere.

I’ll call an ambulance, I’ve never done it. I don’t even know the name of the street.

I’ve been standing here for 5 minutes now, is it possible that no one passes by?

Not even a car, a cyclist, nothing.

Hello, what’s the emergency?

{The emergency? Yes, I was driving and suddenly I noticed a body lying on the edge of the road. The closer I got, the more I noticed the blood near his body…}

Sir, can you come closer to the body? Can you tell me if he is conscious?

Hello, what’s the emergency?

{The emergency? Yes, I was driving and suddenly I noticed a body lying on the edge of the road. The closer I got, the more I noticed the blood near his body…}

Sir, can you come closer to the body? Can you tell me if he is conscious?

Sir, are you still on the line? Have you checked the body closely? A patrol has been sent to your address.

{I… there is no more blood nearby, at least I don’t think so, I can’t see it anymore… have you arrived yet? I can see you from afar, how did you arrive so early…}

Sir, the patrol has left now, we haven’t reached you yet. Sir? Did you by any chance run over the person? Was it you?

No, I didn’t hit him, I just wanted to help, I found him already like this.
Why did I stop, now they’ll blame me…

Who’s that in the distance waving his arm? It feels funny.

I have to go, I think he’s recording me.
It wasn’t me, I found him already like this. I just wanted to help.

I just wanted to help…
