I am working at an airport and happen to come across some information that tells me the next plane Celine will be on. The plane leaves very soon, and I realize I must run to catch it. There always seems to be many things holding me back, and I finally break free and run out to the taxiway. The outcome is always the same: when I get there, her plane is on its way out to the runway. I've missed it again by seconds. No matter how fast I run or how soon I leave the terminal, somehow I can never catch her. I leave heartbroken.
