Novel

As always, I was racing through the evening city on my bike with the guys. We race everywhere, flying like crazy past pedestrians and cars. Suddenly, we went down to the -1 level of the road, which was probably intended for pedestrians. We did it to cut the journey short.

You and your friend were walking right there. You thought you'd be able to run between the bikers. Luckily, you managed to slip between two guys in motorcycle helmets who weren't going very fast. Your friend was scared and decided to wait until they all passed. They all passed, and she went to you.

I was riding last, a little behind the others, and at first I didn't see your friend. At the very last moment, I swerved sharply to the side and fell over with my motorcycle, sliding sideways towards the wall with the wheels facing forward. Your friend fell, and I hit her. Quickly getting up and throwing my helmet against the wall, I ran to her and picked her up. Hearing a worried voice babbling from the side, I suddenly looked and was stunned, gazing at you. — ooh... — one of my lips was split.
