She realized too late that she had spoken the words. Faint, but she still said it out loud and did not just keep it in her head. She was too excited to notice, and it was too late to take it back.
She could only wonder if he heard it from all the commotion. She remembered that Bob was also shouting and expressing his excitement and apprehension on the headset.
Anyway, there was nothing she could do now that the race had ended. She was not even sure who won because it was a close one. She could even say it was a photo finish.
"Who won?" She could hear in the background.
"Ssshhh!" Someone else said as they all waited for the announcement. Only the officials at the line could tell who had won that race. It was so fast and too close for the naked eye to determine the first to cross the line.
She thought that whoever won deserved it, judging by how they had competed against each other. But, of course, she still hoped that Liam had won.
Thanks
