The most intelligent picture ever taken: Participants of the 5th Solvay Conference on Quantum Mechanics, 1927. 17 of the 29 attendees were or became Nobel Prize winners.
A Youth had this picture in his pocket while sitting at a bus stand, was it Moscow in a snowy place? or in some village in Japan with a rainy platform? Or a busy NYC bus stop where water is thrown by a passing Ferrari? It doesn't matter as someone who once decided to be a superstar in physics ended up being another corporate manager asking people to do something he knows nothing about!
As he watches the last carrier go he stands up to cross this road and walks alone like another day in solidarity but he sees another ghost like any other time he usually thinks of after a scary movie, maybe it's his paranoia but he moves forward crossing those zebra lines drawn symmetrically, he sees another girl like the one holding doll but cuter and paler. He knows it's another one of his imaginations but this time, there's a truck hitting this doll!
Absurd right? Not only is he scared and imagining things but also constructing short horror movies like the ones his little summer intern says to ask for weekend leave. At the juncture of these unnatural zebra lines he has to make a decision now, watch her a figment of his terrified imagination get crushed or do something or follow what he has been doing close those eyes and hope it would end with just that.
What will you do, Nate? This time you are not even under the influence of those cursed parties that can make you numb and give you the courage to do something.
As to fate has to mock him or some overweight writer writing a novel has to start his transmigration he finally takes a deep breath and throws the girl with his hands to the other side (of course some rage throw was involved, he is getting this haunted dreams for so long).
The absurdity of how that girl was lifted easily and that imaginary bus hit him aside we finally see how our main character gets into the world of Mirandor.
