Why are you walking so slow?

18:48, Wednesday.

The crowd is hustling. Two minutes till the ferry departs.

‘Sardines’, whispering to myself.

I watched and kept my pace down —Really hate competitions.

-

A kid sprinted through the crowd and ran passed me; waved back, as if telling me to catch up. His twin brother then stepped up right next to me and asked,
‘Why are you walking so slow?’.

I responded, ‘I see you’re doing the same too, moon-walking huh, what’s your fun?’

The twin brother answered, ‘I’m competing.’

Me, ‘With whom? Your brother is way ahead.’

‘Myself. I could decide whether to win or lose to myself, this is fun.’ said right before he sprinted off.

Day 2 — Perhaps I myself could be fun too.
