Serendipity – Just

She was late.
Chances were, she would miss her train; that had to be avoided at all costs.
A car horn outside.
At last, the taxi! She hurried out and told the driver to put his foot down, praying that they’d get to the station in time.
Finally they arrived. She threw a handful of cash through the cab window and ran inside.
Nearing the platform, she saw the train… She was going to make it, just, but only just!
At the platform edge, she watched it draw closer, smiled, took a deep breath before stepping right into its path.
