A solution to break / continue a loop in Python?

The question is this, I can not find a solution that will override console usage for my small application.

What happens is: My application runs in the eternal loop, but after it executes the loop, it should stop to ask if I want to stop the loop or continue. So far nothing impossible. However, I want it to continue the loop if I do nothing. For example:

From this moment on, there are two possibilities.

I've already thought of some things, such as using two threads one to read the keys (if any) and another to count the 4 seconds, but I could not. So I come to ask if anyone knows a solution to this problem.

import pyautogui
import sys, time, msvcrt, random, time, os

# obs: Minha resolução de tela é 1366 x 768. Talvez será necessário adaptar as coordenadas
#      dos cliques automatizados para sua tela. 

def jogar():
    time.sleep(0.5)
    pyautogui.click(670, 330)
    time.sleep(0.5)
    cartaEscolhida = random.randint(1,5) # Escolhe uma carta aleatória.
    if cartaEscolhida == 1: 
        pyautogui.click(670, 330)
    elif cartaEscolhida == 2:
        pyautogui.click(717, 350)
    elif cartaEscolhida == 3:
        pyautogui.click(771, 351)
    elif cartaEscolhida == 4:
        pyautogui.click(815, 357)
    else:
        pyautogui.click(863, 350) 
    time.sleep(7.5)
    pyautogui.click(760, 410)

def abrirJogo():                # Dá os cliques para abrir a extensão e o jogo de cartas.
    pyautogui.click(891, 537)
    time.sleep(1)
    pyautogui.click(694, 386)

def fecharJogo():               # Dá os cliques para fechar a extensão.
    time.sleep(0.5)
    pyautogui.click(880, 531)

def mudarAba():                 # Para mudar da aba do console para a aba do navegador.
    pyautogui.keyDown('alt',)
    pyautogui.press('tab')
    pyautogui.keyUp('alt')

def pararPrograma():
    timeout = 4
    startTime = time.time()
    inp = None
    print("Aperte qualquer tecla para continuar ou aguarde 4 segundos.")
    while True:
        if msvcrt.kbhit():
            inp = msvcrt.getch()
            break
        elif time.time() - startTime > timeout:
            break
    if inp:
        sys.exit()
    else: 
       parar = False

clear = lambda: os.system('cls')  # Para limpar o console. 

# Daqui pra frente é o programa funcionando. 

print("Abra o canal na twitch e deixe em modo teatro. O programa iniciará em 10 segundos.")
time.sleep(10)
parar = False
while parar == False:
     abrirJogo()
     jogar()
     fecharJogo()
     mudarAba()
     clear()
     pararPrograma()     
     mudarAba()

I also put the source code on the site pastebin.com and saved a video running it .

Note: The current source code works, but I want to solve this problem because I want to use a graphical interface.

To simplify the problem a little more I did this:

from threading import Thread
import time, sys

def pergunta():
    print("Aperte qualquer tecla para parar ou aguarde 4 segundos.")
    input()

def contar():
    timeout = 4
    startTime = time.time()
    while True:
        if time.time() - startTime > timeout:
            print("Continuando")
            break

ThreadA = Thread(target=pergunta)
ThreadB = Thread(target=contar)

ThreadA.start()
ThreadB.start()

Now the problem changes. The input does not end after the 4 seconds has elapsed. And I can not call those threads again.
