Chapter 3
“Miss?”
I slowly lookup and find a familiar looking man looking at me weirdly.
Wear am I ?
“Miss , we’ve reached Heathrow airport”
Oh gosh , I remember now ….
“Errm... how much do I owe you?,” I say quickly,
Act natural Layla...
“50 pounds plus an extra 25 pounds for the extra petrol”
Greedy Much?
I pull out my purse and hand him the money. I open the door and stumble my way out and notice that my suitcase is already waiting in front of me. He must have taken it out when I was sleeping on the car seat.
“Thanks for the ride”
He nods
I close the door and before I know it , he’s whizzing past me. Wow some people can be so rude for no reason!
Over the next course of minutes I seem to have forgotten about the rather crude man since Heathrow airport is so damn huge, I literally felt like a swarny ant. Ok maybe I was being slightly over the top there , but I hadn't been in an airport for the past 3 years so things looked so different from the last time . I glance at the the time , 8:30 am right then better get a move on.
I walk into the airport and notice that there is a Starbucks nearby , time to get a frappuccino! I walk over and see that there a massive queue to the counter. Gosh ! Who would have thought Heathrow would be so busy in the mornings... In the end I decide its best to not get one since I’d be standing around for ages. Instead I walk over to the check in desk in order to get my boarding pass.
“Hello Miss, can I help you” says a petite woman , with a fake smile
“Errm... I’m here to get my boarding pass to the Canary islands”
“Of course , may I see your ticket ?”
“Yea sure,” I reply
I rummage through my bag, thinking its in the zipper but when I force my hand through I can’t seem to feel it. Where on earth is it ? I can practically hear my heart pounding against my chest now.
Easy now Lyla...
Arrrrgh … I can see behind me a queue was starting to form and the person behind me was staring at me weirdly. I can feel my cheeks heat up amber red.This is just great. After what felt like eternity I finally find the one ticket , in my purse.
How could I have been so stupid... I let out a sigh of relief and hand them to the woman who was now glaring at me.
“Right well , I need you to sign here,” she says with a stern edge to her voice
I place the pen on the form. Gosh why was I shaking so much? I hesitantly sign the form and hand it back to her.
“Alright miss , here is your boarding pass...”
“Thankyou” I say while she watches me put it back into my purse
“Be sure to look after it now...”
I simply nod back.
I walk over to the seating area and double check that the pass was securely in the purse.While I was doing this I noticed a tall man with a stubble face, sitting opposite me and was looking at what I was doing, I could feel the power from his eyes observing every move I make. I stare back at him but am returned with a huge smile on his face. I’m not sure whether I should be creeped out or return the smile back. I decide to pretend that I was looking at someone else and eventually place my handbag on my lap to make it look like I was doing something. After a few minutes of fiddling with the home keys in my bag , I look up and find that the strange man is still looking at me , I quickly turn my head down to my bag and return to what I was doing. A couple of moments pass and I hear a series footsteps coming towards me. Oh god...
