Jonathan Street, On a construction site...
A young man around 21 is working on the top of an unfinished building and he is welding some pipes together, while eating a sandwich.
This guys is Lucian and he is a normal 21 year old. Except, he has no one in his family or friend circle.
Lucian works in the evening and Attends College in the day.
*Zrrrrrrrrrrr*
A man who was sitting next to Lucian was working with a hand grinder.
"Oi, What are you doing ?" Lucian asked as he turned off the welding machine.
"Hmm...? Me ?" The guy stopped the angle grinder and asked with a confused expression.
"Yeah... Who do you think is sitting here with me other than you ?" Lucian asked.
"Oh, rude... Well, I am Cutting these metal pipes into Half for the 31st Floor." He replied.
"Why aren't you doing it with a Scale or measuring tape ?" Lucian asked.
"Well, Kid... It's been 14 years since i am working as a labour on construction sites and after all this experience... I can just tell that this point is the middle point of this pipe.
I don't need a scale now, You understand ?" He spoke as he looked at Lucian with a smile.
"You are wrong then... The middle point of this pipe is here, Not here." Lucian spoke as he pointed out on the pipe.
"What ? No, No... It's not in the middle, If you look at it properly-" Before the Guy could've completed his sentence, Lucian pulled out his measuring tape and placed it into his hands.
"Don't make my work harder, It's already this hard. Measure them correctly and Cut them properly." Lucian spoke with a straight face as he immediately went back to his work.
The man looked at Lucian with a serious expression before opening the measuring tape and measuring the pipe.
But, As soon as he measured the pipe... He noticed that the middle point of the pipe was exactly where Lucian pointed before.
His eyes widened in surprise as he turned to look at Lucian.
...
Later inside the Staff room of the Construction Site...
"Oi, Who is that kid ?" The same guy asked his friend as he pointed towards Lucian, Who was sitting in one corner of the room... Reading a manga silently.
"What did he do this time ?" His friend asked.
"He told me the exact middle point of a G4 type pipe without even using a measuring tape and the thing is, he was exactly right.
The digits after the point were also correct. I mean, he doesn't look that old... How long is he working with us ?" He asked.
"He came onboard with us exactly 15 days ago before you came back from your holiday and from that day everything changed.
That kid has the potential to be one of the greatest builders in this City. He can tell the weight of something with just a slight touch of his hand, The power you need to pull or push a big stack stones or Metal pipes.
He can tell if the design of a Building is stable for earthquakes or not, with just one look. It's like, He is blessed by the builder God." He replied.
"Builder God ? Really ? Well, Why is he working here... If he has such a promising future ? Why not take loans and study ?" He asked.
"Well, he wants to work and Study at the same time. Maybe he doesn't like loans or some shit... But, If he says something is wrong on the site... Then no one inside this room has the confidence to say that he is wrong.
Not even the Managing team dares to mess with that guy. Haa... I wish i had so much talent." He spoke as he stood up from the seat.
"Lunch time over... Guys. Back to work, I need to complete this floor today and get back home before 9pm." The supervisor spoke as he walked out of the room.
Everyone immediately stood up and Exited the staff room... Except Lucian.
He closed the manga and looked at the ground with a sad expression.
'Family... What a joke ?' Lucian thought as he placed the manga aside and stood up from the bench.
He also exited the staff room and as soon as he came out... Lucian started yawning.
*Yawwwn*
As soon as Lucian yawned, he looked up and noticed something unusual at the top of the building.
A crane was pulling a huge metal pole upwards.
'That Pole... They are pulling it up, But the balance of the pole is not right... The gravitational pull on that height is that and if it's moving with that speed... it will reach there in-' Before Lucian could've thought of anything else... His eyes widened in shock.
"It's about to fall... In 30 seconds." Lucian spoke as he immediately looked down at the crashing position and noticed a little girl playing there with a yellow ball.
"NO, IT'S ABOUT TO FALL... LITTLE GIRL STEP ASIDE." Lucian shouted as he immediately started running towards the Little girl with full speed.
'No, It will take me about 27 seconds to reach there... I wasted one second already. If i tried to grab her and roll with her... Both of us will die.
Fuck... The calculations aren't helping in this.'
*Tick*
"Oh, Fuck... The Pole fell down." The crane driver shouted as he immediately stepped out of the crane.
"Fuck it..." Lucian spoke as he looked up for a split second. He ran with his full speed and pushed the girl aside, But as soon as he pulled the girl aside...
*THUD*
*Squeeze*
The Pole Fell over Lucian and His body was completely crushed.
As soon as the pole crushed Lucian's body... The Sun went down the horizon and dark covered the whole Construction Site.
