"Ladies and Gentlemen, we are now approaching Barcelona where the local time is 10:00 AM. Please be in your seat with your seatbelt firmly fastened...."
With the sound of the flight attendant telling us to prepare for landing, the conversation was immediately cut off. You went to check if your seatbelt was fastened and if the seat tables were stowed away properly. Your phone was turned off so you didn't have to worry about it. You've always hated take offs and landing. The ear clogging is painful and irritating. Just as you were about to prepare for ringing in your ears, Taehyung starts to pass you something again. Chewing gum.
"Do you want some? I use it so my ears won't hurt"
How does he seem to have a solution for everything I go through?
You grabbed the gum and thanked him before you could even hear the insufferable ear popping. And you've been on a plane for at least 5 times already excluding this one that you have to say it did work somehow.
When you felt the plane land and when the flight attendant finally announced your arrival, you stood up quickly feeling the numbness in your legs that you have to pray to the gods that you wouldn't stumble over and make a fool out of yourself. You reached under the chair to grab your luggage. When you've finally got a hold of it, you got ready to head out of the plane doors but before you did, you reminded yourself to say thank you to the stranger that treated you as if he was a friend. You turned around in search of the striking set of eyes and beautiful tanned skin. Your eyes scanned what was left of the plane but only a few people were there, and none were of the kind stranger. You sighed and walked out of the plane, smiling at the flight attendants as you walked past them.
When the Barcelona air had hit your face and the unfamiliar landscape had come into your view, you've finally realized something.
You're going to be doing this on your own now. No parents. No siblings. No tour guide. Not even a kind stranger to help you sort things out.
It's just you, alone, ready to take on an adventure that you've waited for so long.
