Daily Prompt : Almost

In response to one-word prompt : Almost

On my way to the bus stop, I crossed the street, I walked a few steps and was close to the stop, when I noticed the bus pulling away I wished I came   five minutes earlier.

I was  almost there, I took a few steps now that I  missed the bus, wondering should I go home or wait another thirty minutes to get the next bus.

I could not decide if I should stay or leave, my hesitancy kept me on the spot for at least twenty minutes. I convinced me  all I need is ten minutes, to get the bus.

Ten minutes  vanished like a puff of smoke. I looked up, saw the bus coming,  I congratulated myself for my patience to WAIT!
