"Good afternoon, passengers. This is the pre-boarding announcement for flight JD143 to Bangkok. We are now inviting those passengers with small children and any passengers requiring special assistance to begin boarding at this time. Please have your boarding pass and identification ready. Regular boarding will begin in approximately ten minutes time. Thank you."
"We repeat passengers. This is the pre-boarding announcement for flight JD143 to Bangkok. We are now inviting those passengers with small children and any passengers requiring special assistance to begin boarding at this time. Please have your boarding pass and identification ready. Regular boarding will begin in approximately ten minutes time. Thank you,"
He sighed as he went to the boarding gate to let check his boarding pass to do a final check. So he can board the plane already since he is in a Special Categories of Passengers (SCP). It's a passenger like him who needed assistance.
"Sir,this way, please."an attendant said. He smiled at her and followed her.
He put back on his earphones after he checked in.
When he was about to enter the business class cabin, someone came out from inside, making them collide.
Luckily, his reflex was faster. Before he fell down, he held onto one of the seats near the aisle. He raised his head and was about to apologize, but when he saw who it was, it left him stunned.
Dunk's POV
When Dunk saw the man in front of him, all the past and memories with this man had all coming back to him. The memories they had that he couldn't forget even after 5 years are flashing now into his head.
Those lonely years that I regretted that I've left my heart behind. Those 5 years where I had lots of 'WHAT IF'S '...
What if I confessed everything. What if I gathered courage and took a risk? What if I chose to be selfish to be with him? What if I followed the whisper of my heart?
The what if's that it's so too late to regrets.
When our eyes met, the eyes before that were full of love and tenderness... the eyes that I want to look every single time. That eyes now is looking at me as cold as an iceberg and as mad as an angry tiger.
I know he is mad at me and I didn't forget that it's because of me, because of my foolishness.
I miss him, My Archen, that's no longer and couldn't call mine now.
He walked towards me, and my heart started beating so fast. I think my heart is going to explode!
'Please, MY HEART, don't do this to me. I'm begging you! Stay calm!'
And when he's in front of me, I'm too stunned to move! He still stared at me.
"Hello, sir. You dropped your phone." he said and picked it up and handed it to me.
Our hand accidentally touches. I feel his warm hands.
Oh God!why I am shaking? Please, someone, come and save me! At this moment, I don't know what to do nor how should I react.
I'm too nervous! Way too nervous! 'Please, heart? Stay still, Why are you acting like this?'
When I got my phone he handed, luckily I found myself the courage to speak. "Thank you!"he muttered, but his voice was shaking. Then, I went inside the cabin where my designated seat was.
I don't know what's happening. After all this year, I'm using this new heart of mine. This is the first time it acted like this.
His senses came back when he heard the captain announcement.
"Good afternoon, passengers. This is your captain Joong speaking. First, I'd like to welcome onboard everyone on Dungjang airline, Flight JD143.
We are currently at an altitude of 33,000 feet at an airspeed of 400 miles per hour. The time is 1:25 pm. The weather looks good, and with the tailwind on our side, we are expecting to land in Bangkok approximately fifteen minutes ahead of schedule.
The weather in Bangkok is clear and sunny, with a high of 25 degrees for this afternoon. If the weather cooperates we should get a great view of the city as we descend.
The cabin crew will be coming around in about twenty minutes time to offer you a light snack and beverage, and the inflight movie will begin shortly after that.
I'll talk to you again before we reach our destination. Until then, sit back, relax, and enjoy the rest of the flight."
The announcement has ended.
Yes, Joong Archen is now a pilot. How the time passed by so fast. He reaches his dream and is currently in the making of prosperity. I'm so extremely happy for him, I'm glad he's doing great now. Even I'm not with him and I can say even I regret leaving him behind but I didn't regret my decision I've done before.
Before I leave in Thailand, for the last time I went to our university to see him even from a far. Even I failed to see him. I'm so glad my parents are both supportive of what I wanted to do.
Pond didn't know too where's Archen, he didn't contact Pond and Phuwin. It made me think that this is the best. Maybe this is our destiny. We met, but we're not destined to each other.
