in the dead of the night

so i was driving down the expressway back from hw's house (at 1:30am in the morning) when i very nearly ran over an old indian man sprawled in the middle of a slip road. good thing i wasn't feeling tired -- not meaning to be racist here but it's much harder to spot an indian man in the dead of the night than, say, a fat ang moh dude. anyway, he was clutching his metal crutches which clearly did not help him much, and because the slip road was kinda in the middle of nowhere, i asked if he needed a ride. ended up getting mildly lost around eunos cos he didn't really know how to get back to his house...but managed to send him home anyway and left feeling grateful that i could help someone in need. and grateful that i didn't kill him in the first place.
