The day i almost died, err, got hit

i and my sis, along with forthlan and her sibs, were halfway crossing rizal avenue on to our morning delight destination-- pancakes at jollibee. i am at the right side looking after motors coming from that side of town, and while at it, i failed to glance at those coming from our direction. upon reaching the middle of the avenue, we all stopped, i backed off a little since i was one step farther. then suddenly, a swift rushing motor passed right in front me, so close had i not backed off, i would have been hit bulls eye. coincidence? i don't think so.
