All in place… the sound of their breaths are getting louder and louder… yet… a fearful silence is enveloping everything else… his eyes become focused… he can see the ending out in the horizon… and people gathering their waiting for the winner [him] to cross the end line…
All are in place… his heartbeats are accelerating… staying focused… it is not that faraway… it is only some miles…
Time seems to be frozen… a pause click on a speedy movie…
Bang!
All are suddenly in motion… run… run… faster and faster…
He is not alone… but no… he can’t look at who is next to him… ahead of him… or even behind him…
He can’t see nothing but the end cross line…
Run… faster…
His heartbeats are not feeling that fast anymore… because each living cell in him is as fast as them…
Faster…
The miles are diminishing… the cross line are getting closer… more clear… focus… people at the end line moves in slow motion… shouts in silence… they form the background of that end line…
Faster… run...
Oh my God…
The end line is not there any more… someone else reached it before…
Someone took it…
What should he do? Run that extra mile? Reach the end anyways… or just stop… now…
Make a decision now…
Go for it? Is it about the end line? Is it about his end line?
Run… faster… faster… faster…
And he is crossing the line now…
He is crossing the line…
He crossed the line…
He ran that extra mile…
And yeah…
He did it…
He did it for himself…
And in that self triumph… he shall rejoice…
Alhamdulliah…
He ran his extra mile…
