Somewhere in Asia
1000 GMT+9
THAT WAS three days ago.Now I'm standing somewhere in Asia,Japan perhaps.90% sure.I'm outside Mahone's private jet,talking to one of the ground officers at the VIP terminal on how exactly to charge my plane.Oops,did I say my plane? I meant Mahone's plane.Anyways,the Quadra 6 is fully electric,but the ground officer did not get a single word I said.He just nodded his head and then asked me something incomprehensible,probably Japanese,as if expecting me to understand it.
"He asked you how much fuel you wanted to put in."Suddenly from behind me a voice spoke.I turned and saw it was the Asian stewardess,Minako,that served on Mahone's flight earlier.
"Erm,the jet doesn't need any fuel,it runs on elec--"I didn't need to finish my sentence,for Minako seemed to have understood me,and strode to infront of the ground officer,conversing with him in Japanese.Immediately the guy nodded his head,and called for another officer to bring something.At least,that was what I thought it was,until Minako told me what it really was.
"He asked me why things were so complicated these days and uttered some really choice Japanese swear words before calling for a generator."I smirked.So I was 1/3 right.I stretched to get nine hours' fatigue out of me,before talking.
"Thanks for helping out Minako,I appreciate it."
"No problem Magnus,just tell me if you need help with the language barrier in this country."She turned and went back up the aerobridge.
I sighed,then started to examine the plane again ,completing my ground checks.
What was Mahone doing,and why was he so secretive?I could see him from his window seat from my place at the wing.He was on the phone and seemed to be taling heatedly with someone.
"Earth to Magnus,Earth to Magnus,are you there?" I jumped;Tanya was suddenly standing there,beside me .An shiny wedding ring occupied some space on the ring finger of her right hand,and mine was on the left ring finger.
"Woah Tanya,what are you doing?Shouldn't you be with Mahone,taking down whatever he says or whatever is it that secretaries do these days?"
"You mean follow that hopeless around,taking notes,repeating what he says and let's face it--being an absolute weirdo?"Tanya replied before the both of us burst into laughter.
"No, I don't mean that.I meant it like 'aren't you supposed to move with Mahone?Because he's getting in his limousine and just about going to drive away." I said after we recovered from our bout of laughter.
"Oh! Shit,I gotta run!"Tanya's amused expression turned into alarm as she started running towards one of the entourage following Mahone."Catch you later!"
I raised my hand in goodbye,then turned and went up the aerobridge.
