"This was
the worst flight I've ever been on," Dana said as they all walked through
the busy concourse, the flight from New York having had arrived safely.
Chloe laughed.
"You say that after every flight."
She looked at Gabriel. "Didn't I tell you?" He nodded, smiling.
"I was
seated next to a guy who looked like a terrorist and had a voice like Wally
Cox."
"Wally--who?"
Chloe asked.
Dana shot her
a look. "Oh, come on, Chloe--you're not that much younger than me!”
Olivia spoke
up. "He was a bit of a character," she confirmed.
"I heard
him say something about vomiting," Rachel recalled.
Chloe looked
to Gabriel again. He leaned close and whispered, "It's going to be a long
night."
I based these scenes on a flight I once took to New York with a fellow author. I wish I'd had some duct tape!
ReplyDeleteI know that feeling of being stuck on a flight with... interesting people. Well-captured scene.
