E. How do you feel if somebody interrupts you on the verge of winning point? Do you think it is ethical?
Answer:
I feel so bad if somebody interrupts me on the verge of winning point. No, I don't think it is ethical. On the verge of winning point, the expectations are so high. We expect a lot being so excited. It is that point when we feel extreme happiness remembering all the hard struggles of our past. The happiness at this point is unexplainable. Reaching this point means great enthusiasm within ourselves. If someone interrupts at this stage, we feel so awkward. All our expectations shatter at once. We feel very bad about those people who hinder us in achieving our goals at the winning point.
