Why is it that the waves of the micro isn’t hurting our skin or bodies when we are in a rush and just open the door, instantly stick our hand in there and grab whatever we’re heating up? How can they go from actively heating up the food to not be there anymore?

Microwaves move at the speed of light.
One light-second, the distance light moves in a second, about 186 thousand miles.
Those microwaves have finished bouncing around and have been absorbed before the beep from the oven got to your ears.
(Sound in normal air is about 110 feet per second; the difference is why you see lightning before you hear thunder.)
