Chapter 3: Bargaining

11 minutes. Like always. Without a thought I sprung up from my bed, threw my coat on, threw some change in my pocket and within 30 seconds I was on the sidewalk again.

I saw things clearer this time. I new my priorities. What I need to avoid. The paths I need to take. Stay focused Jisung. You got this.

I turned the corner and completely avoided the women this time. Even waved at her.

Good job Jisung. Still have plenty of time. Just stay focused. He needs you.

I ran by the man and hopped over his foot as I dropped change in his can. Yes! Now get passed the tunnel. You still have 7 minutes.

Rain fell on the bridge creating a peaceful sound which put my tense body at ease for the few seconds I was under.

I made it passed the tunnel successfully. I was greeted by new sights. They were dark and gloomy but somehow they made me happy. I had gotten farther. I'm gonna make it for sure this time.

I ran a little longer. Then I finally saw the lights. His lights. His face was glowing ever so slightly through the windshield. Minho! He's ok. I ran faster. I did it. I finally did it!

Suddenly I was stopped by a group of nuns. Where did they even come from?! They quickly surrounded me, blocking my path to him.

"W-what are you doing!"

They ignored me and proceeded throw bible verses at me.

"Move! I need to get to him! I'm gonna run out of time!" I checked my watch. 1 minute.

I saw another pair of lights. They were heading the opposite way of Minho. Was that the driver?

"No! Minho! Move! Now! Please Minnie! Get out of the way!"

The nuns were still holding me back as the two cars collided. Then, they finally cleared the path. But it was too late. I broke down and cried right there on the street. The time had run out again. I was so close. Yet.. so far.
