Trainers hitting the concrete. Her breath short and fast.
Her mind is oblivious to the surroundings. There are no thoughts. It's just her and the road.
The worry of her mothers illness, forgotten. The children demanding every ounce of her attention, forgotten. The argument with Simon, forgotten. Nothing clouds her mind. It's as if everything is a distant memory of a strangers life. She allows the burn in her legs to spur her faster. The road welcomes her back, like old times.
She never planned this life. Everything became unexpected as soon as she met Simon.
What if she never had children? What if she never met Simon?
What if she want back.
What if, she was that someone important again. Everyone hanging on to her every word. Feeling the stares of men as she passed on by. Having time for friends.
Always wondering what if.
Trainers hitting the concrete. Her breath short and fast.
Her mind is oblivious to the surroundings. There are no thoughts. It's just her and the road.
It's like catching up with an old friend.
