Warming up at Wan Chai Sports Ground, being the sole representative for 3000m, Dara thought he would be more nervous from previous experience. Yet, he is calm this time, perhaps it is because he has an aim this time -- to impress Minna.
Dara surprisingly didn't feel nervous even on starting line, where it was a nerve wrecking experience for hin in the past.
Lap by lap Dara inches closer to the end, but on the last 400m, he could feel that his body is starting to give up on him and he keeps retching. On finish line he couldn't hold up anymore, fall on the ground start vomiting.
Minna saw this from the stand and immediately rush towards him.
"You okay?" Minna said worriedly.
Dara made a sign to let her know he is fine.
At lunch time, they walked to a near Yoshinoya.
"I am paying today to repay what you spend for me last time on Valentine's day, just pick what you want to eat!"
They ordered two big bowl of rice with beef, one of them with an onsen egg. Minna got a small bowl and only ate the bowl full of food while Dara is eating the rest.
"Your not- hungry? You only- ate very little." Dara talking with mouth full of food.
"Yeah, I am good. You eating a lot! Enough to cover for what you vomitted at the track?" Minna smiled.
"Yurh- Thank you for payin- for the fud though-"
"Slow down chump, no wonder you throw up with you eating so quick!"
The shop is filled with people talking and laughter.
