Part 4/9:
I came to on the left side of the road after being struck, unsure of how I had been propelled. Amazingly, I experienced no immediate pain, perhaps due to adrenaline and shock, but as the gravity of the impact settled in, I began to assess my condition. The driver who hit me approached slowly, stunned by the potential severity of the accident. What followed was an odd conversation tinged with disbelief as we both acknowledged the shocking reality of the situation.
