Temporal Pearls

<Tell us from the beginning what happened> the anchor said.

And the old woman began to talk and Seth was able to recognise her immediately.

<Okay… ahm. My grandson was driving and then we saw the shooting stars in the sky. We make a wish and that's all. And then our car slowed down and we stopped. Another thing was, we felt as if we were drunk and weak.

We can't see clearly as things become blurry… And, I thought it was me but it was everyone with exception of my grandson, June, I heard him calling my name and saying, why are we daze and all that…!>

Sniff!

Sniff!

Crying!

The old lady began to cry, after some time she was normal and.

<He then… he began to panic, he took the car safety hammer and smashed it on the window repeatedly until it broke and I heard him wince as he crawled out of the broken window but that didn't stop him! Then he crawled through the rough glass outside. It was then that I heard something…! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Something big is smashing against something small. I was dizzy and I couldn't move well and even after I turned, my eyes were blurry. The only thing I saw was my June trying to push our car to the side. He pushed and pushed…!>

Tears flowed out of her face as she couldn't finish the story. Many people in the parlour were sad, some women were tearing up.

<The banging sound was moving toward us, June's panic increased as he screamed to push our car away and then...bang… we were pushed away. It was only a tip of the back of the car slammed as for him… he sacrifice himself to save us.>

She held on from crying but one can see her face scrunched off holding it in tights

<I wonder why he saved an old woman like me, I'm 78, he is just 19, I lived my whole life, he should have run!>

She took a deep breath.

<I'm sorry, I'm lost in track!>

She apologized but the anchor said it was fine.

<Everything calmed down, but whatever hit us made our car squeeze together making us tight. Also, we were now awake, not in that dizzy state anymore. One of my granddaughters was squeezed between seats, she had her ribs punctured her lungs, she was holding on but unknown to us she was bleeding until I felt a warm liquid coming from her. I'm weak, so I can't help her.

There was also a scream here and there and also a baby crying. A moment later, the baby stopped crying!>

The old lady calmed down fully trying to remember what she saw

<I thought the baby was relieved from this miserable life but then I saw a light, some glowing, moving from one car to another car, and then the car parking light lit up and then the light off. I still can't see clearly that far but I can hear car doors opening and exclamation of relief!> see-more-MVLeMpYr

<The more the light came closer, the more I could discern its shape. It was a man, a young man and he was carrying a baby which… the young man was glowing with soothing light. It wasn't white but more like Ice blue white. When he glanced at me from a distance, I felt a chill down my spine. Strangely, I felt energetic too. Then he…ahm, directly walked towards me!>

Her face was in utmost concentration as if she was speaking of something sacred and wanted to narrate exactly what happened without omission.

<It was when he came close to me that I realized what he was doing, touching the car, it came to life and all the doors opened, and even the AI began speaking. He opened the door at the side I was and said, "Hello!" His voice was soft and soothing, it drained all the fuzziness I was feeling and gave me extreme clarity. "Hi!" I replied!>

<The car was already readjusting its body part, my granddaughters were able to move. "Good, people here are all alive. May you please hold her, she lost her mother!" He said in a sad tone. I received the baby that seemed to be falling asleep but still trying to stare at him. He smiled, he seemed tired and exhausted. And he turned around and walked back from where he came from!

"Is that an Angel?" My granddaughter asked, she was bleeding a moment ago but now was able to seat and her wound strangely healing>

<He went far and then disappeared. I thought we were lucky that he saved us because others beyond us needed help and yet he left but then there was a flash of light, calming but blinding which disappeared as fast. All the cars around activated and their doors opened>

That was the end of her story, and then the anchor asked.

<What can you say you met with? Some called the entity an Alien, some an Angel, some a Superhero and some even a God. What can you say He was?>

<It's not my place to say>

The old woman explained.

<All I know is he was kind and also the reason many of us survived. We, humans, try to explain everything or name everything we see and compel it to be in the realm of our understanding. But to me, I respect whatever it was, and whoever he was and I will not define it. As he was in a form of man and save us, I will refer to him by his action and that means I call him my Savior>

She explained.

<Why took this stance? Why not ponder on what he is!>

<What if he is not any of the things we called him? If we call him an Angel and then he was not, aren't we calling him wrong? That also applied to other names and assumptions. Instead of assuming, it's better to refer to him by his action that has no error in it!>

She was asked more questions about what happened later and she answered how she was able to walk around helping people get out of their cars and how she felt young and stronger than she should have.

<It was a miracle, the baby he gave me was actually glowing too. I noticed it after he left. So, people began to look at me strangely, especially those that did not see our Saviour!>

When the show ended Seth was sitting on a stool flabbergasted.

"Did you see the Glowing Man too?" Sasha, his causing asked. And all the people around turned their eyes on him.

"Ahm, I… just saw a light and then my car activated and then I drove fast toward home!" Sweat broke on him as he explained.

Everyone nodded in understanding but four people were staring at him strangely.
