Running Woman

I got ready to step out onto the isolated streets for a walk. It was nothing special but the same woman on the opposite pavement greeted me with her fast strides. Her physique was that of athletic and her jawline was more masculine. 

Then she was not a jogger or atleast her routine was not jogging. Her outfits were not meant for jogging. Her skirts were too long and I always feared that she might trip down and have her face injured. For the past month, I am acquainted with this mysterious woman just observing her from the opposite side. 

She would keep running as far as I jog and further beyond my vision very far away. I had reasons to believe about her running but she proved them wrong all the while. One such belief was that she was late for the bus but she never halted near any bus stop nor took a cab. 

This puzzled me and as a person who is very inquisitive, I decided to follow her. I made sure to cover up myself so that she wouldn’t be able to spot my intentions. She took a left turn after running 10 miles and she enters an old house.

I follow her inside a dilapidated house. There I realize that she was a person from heaven who is under banishment and her repentance was to run continuously until the clock on her fist stopped. She was a person who wasted time unnecessarily and had lost a significant amount of her life doing nothing. 

This was a lesson for her to understand the value of time and how many toils behind begging that they have a minute more to achieve their dreams.
