"I am sorry," I felt a minty breath on my ear. Turning my face I looked up to find a pair of green eyes as I tried to get on my feet. 

"It's fine," I replied and that person made his grip around my waist a little light. I made my way out of his grip and passed a little appreciative smile before leaving.

I couldn't shake away the feeling that I know this person from somewhere but couldn't point. The flight was going good and the passenger beside me was a 9th month's pregnant woman and I wonder why she was traveling.

On some little talk, I get to know that her husband was in an accident and she is flying to see him.

It was quite hard for her to sit there. I knew I will look like her in a few months but the way she huffed and struggle to sit was quite unsettled with me.

This made me request the staff if they can ask anyone in the business class to replace their seats with this woman. After a short while, that attendant came to take that woman and I found a man taking a seat beside me.

I didn't bother to look at him and was quite busy on my laptop when I heard him say,

"I hope you didn't mind our last encounter," This made me look at him. He was the same shaved head person I bumped before boarding.

"Oh,..." I got surprised but the moment I find his gaze at my mouth I closed my mouth shut before murmuring, "It was my mistake."

"Do you live in L.A,?" He asked,

"Yes," I replied,

"Where?" He asked. I was taken aback this time. I don't even know this person and he was asking for my address. What does he take me as? A four-year-old?

"Look, I don't even know you, so," I replied,

"Oh, I am sorry, my name is Fredrick Erno, and I am a lawyer by profession and a senator." He said and I looked at him. This is when it hits me; he was on the news almost all the time. His supporters are insanely in his favor.

"Oh, you looked familiar." I tried to keep my answer short.

"So, can I have the address now?" He asked, I didn't answer and was looking for a way to get myself out of the situation when he said,

"Fine, at least a name or whom I am talking to?"

Well, that was not risky. Right?

"My name is Jane, Jane Monroe. And, I used to be a high school teacher but now I only run a blog." I replied,

"You have a beautiful name, Jane." He complimented and I only gave a nod in reply. Wow, it was good seeing a senator but my mind was busy over the animated lecture I was designing. There was some energy around him that kept me unrest. His gestures were enough to tell me that he was trying to flirt. But I was a mother to be. Definitely, it was not the right time to think about any prospective relationship.

He ordered an expansive wine that I denied telling him, "I am pregnant."

"Congratulations, Lucky man I must say," He replied and I didn't answer but only nodded with a little smile while my eyes rested on my screen. I decided to let him think that I am married or something. He was around forty and definitely not the type I would ever date. So, it was wise to keep my replies short in order to not instigate anything at all.
