"This is the final boarding call for passengers Wang HeDi and Shen Yue booked on Cathay Dragon flight 2018MG bound for Siem Reap.Please proceed to gate 1 immediately. I repeat, this is the final boarding call for passengers Wang HeDi and Shen Yue booked on Cathay Dragon flight 2018MG bound for Siem Reap. Please proceed to gate 1 immediately. Aircraft doors will be  closed in exactly 5 minutes."

She's running so fast towards the boarding gate she can't barely catch her breath. It was a spur of a moment decision to buy the plane ticket. She woke up today and felt that she needed to runaway. Runaway from all the chaos of her life. She decided that the first place that her eyes catches is where she'll bury and forget all her worries and troubles. Him. Especially HIM. She needed to be away from him even just for a week.  She needs some answers and she thought that she'll find it if she's MILES away.

Siem Reap! Where the hell is Siem Reap ?! She was actually having doubts while booking because for the life of her she don't know where Siem Reap is located! Let's cross the bridge when we get there she told herself and dismissed the idea of searching information about the place in the internet.

She's running without stopping. She only slow down a little bit when she noticed that there is a tall and very handsome young man running with her. Nope.. he was NOT running he was actually brisk walking.  With a minute to spare, they were finally able to enter the aircraft before it closes.

7C that is her seat number. She stopped on that lane and wheezes as her burning lungs gasp for air. Her legs were unsteady and she felt that anytime soon she'll collapsed.

"Can I help you put your belongings on the cabin? "The swoon-worthy handsome guy said.

Yes please. Thank you. She answered.

"You can now take your seat Miss. You can have my seat too. I'm on the window side. I thought you'd like to watch the sunset above the sky." He smiled at her.

Oh Jesus Christ Mary and Joseph! This man has the most arresting smile she'd ever seen in her entire life! His entire face lights up and could stop a war when he smiles. She'll bet her entire collection of memes that many hearts were broken and will be broken because of this man. She thought while sitting.

She was lost on her thoughts while watching the sunset on air.

"So you love sunsets? "The man on 7C seat suddenly asked. There was actually no one seating on seat 7B so there is a vacant space between them.

" No i hate it" she answered without looking at him. "It reminds me of someone" she added and slightly glanced at him.

"Me too" he said and closed his eyes.

"So, what's the name of the girl who broke your heart? She blurted without thinking. She sometimes regret that she has a mouth like her. She speaks without thinking.

"She did not break my heart. I broke hers" he answered her without opening his eyes.

"We have 7 hours before we will arrive in Siem Reap. We can talk. You can tell me why you detest sunsets or your plans when you arrive in Cambodia." He suddenly said to her while unbuckling his seatbelt and transferred to the seat beside her.

"What the hell!!" So this plane is going to Cambodia? Siem Reap is in Cambodia?? She exclaimed and hit his arm.

"Ouch! So you're a violent lady eh?...Wait , wait, so you mean you don't know you're going to Cambodia?" He looked at her like she's some kind of DECIDE now-REGRET later kind of girl. Which of course she is actually THAT kind of girl.
