I Missed The Plane

I ran to the gate and missed the plane by four minutes. Sweat was pouring down and I was in tears after the airline representative told me I missed it. I could still see the plane but it had already detached from the bridge. I watched it slowly reverse and tears were streaming down. I was in shock. I have only missed a plane once in my life, and I have flown a lot of planes in my life. I started at the young age of twelve flying between Sweden and England to visit my divorced parents. After calling the airline, I was rebooked for the same day and on my way. And in desperate need of a shower.
