CAPTAIN
"We are flying through an air pocket." I informed. Air pocket is just another word for the winds that jostle a plane from different directions. Turbulence. I am in connecting flight together with Frank as of the moment as we're now heading to Chicago.
I often encounter people that asks me if Pilots can detect certain type of turbulence. Well to answer that—it's a yes. We use an onboard weather radar.Generally speaking, kapag malaki ang patak ng rain drops at malaki ang clouds, the more turbluent it will be inside that cloud. We, as pilots, make a judgement on if we can fly through the cloud or avoid it by flying around it.
"Anong nginingiti ngiti mo diyan?" I quickly glanced at Frank who's busy at his own control wheel.
"Ako ba kausap mo?"
"Mukha bang may iba pang tao rito bukod sa ating dalawa? Bakit ka nga ngumingiti?"
"Ah, wala naman..." sagot ko, "Bukod sa personal ko nang nililigawan si Doktora."
Frank's eyes widened when I said those words. His lips formed a smile and then quickly taps my shoulder, "Is that for real, Pare? Hindi ako makapaniwala!"
"Oo nga. Eh kaso mukhang mahihirapan pa ako, sobrang sungit naman kasi. Pero okay na rin, at least nakikita niyang pursigido akong makuha ang matamis niyang Oo." I replied. Frank just nod his head and let out a sigh.
Totoo naman ang sinasabi ko. I will not get any benefits if I say that I will not have a hard time courting Dennise. It's also good that she sees I am very persistent and I am serious about her. But for the mean time, I'll take this as a challenge.

Exactly 7:30 ng gaabi tuluyang nakalapag ang eroplano. At ano pa nga ba ang aasahan mo? Malamang, pagod ako. Kasalukuyan lang akong nagpapahinga sa isang hotel room kasama si Frank kaso naliligo pa siya e. I pick up my phone to compose a message for Dennise saying that I landed safely-I thought she's gonna reply to me, but sadly she did not. I chatted her again, asking her if she's up for a short call.
