Dear Stranger,

I can't help but think that could have been me. I can't help but think what if. What if i had left the house? What if i had actually decided to walk to Ginifer Station instead of St.Albans Station? Would i have seen you? Would i have been there to stop you? Would it have been me instead of you? Do i call myself lucky for staying home and seeing ambulances race to you? Do i feel regret for staying home and watching ambulances race to you?

The feeling i felt as i watched the ambulance through the window; hearing the sirens get louder and louder. The first thought that raced through my head: that could of been me. Was it fate that the rain and hail stopped me from leaving the house? Stopped me from walking past you? I can't help but think of how close i was. Only a couple of feet away from you.

I can't help but think, if only i had left the house, i could have saved you.
