Although the virus can spread to a distance of 13 feet it doesn't linger in the air and falls to the ground. As long as you are wearing a mask no need to worry about inhaling the virus.
Next Steps
Follow all general safety precautions as recommended by WHO and ICMR - wear mask all the time while outside the house, wash your hands thoroughly after coming back to home. Recommended to wash your legs too if wearing slippers and not shoes.
