Conversation

I stand still, the only one not moving in the crowd of rushing bodies. I am on the field, as hundreds of students participate in the annual one-mile run at our school. I aim to take pictures, but I am struck with giddiness by how many smiling faces are charging towards me, as if they are released into the wild, one last time before summer. It's like sitting in a circle of puppies. I let the wave of runners go past me, smiling in return to the sound of pounding feet. #smallstories
