Lina jogged along the river path when she suddenly realized her phone wasn’t in her pocket. She spun around, spotting it far behind her on the ground, its screen flashing with an incoming call.
Without thinking, she sprinted back, feet pounding on the pavement. The breeze pushed against her, but the glowing screen felt like it pulled her forward.
As she reached it, she slid to a stop, grabbing the phone just before the call ended. Breathing hard, she smiled—sometimes the unexpected sprint is what makes the whole run exciting.
