I'd Rather Go Chasing The Wind

(Joey's Note: Hi, you're at the last chapter of Chasing The Wind. Thank you for reading until here. There's still an epilogue, a special chapter and author's note. Salamat!)

CHEESY

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Captain has turned on the 'Fasten Seat Belt" sign. If you haven’t already done so, please stow yourcarry-on luggage underneath the seat in front of you or in an overhead bin. Please take your seat and fasten your seat belt. And also make sure your seat back and folding trays are in their full upright position. If you are seated next to an emergency exit, please read carefully the special instructions card located by your seat. If you do not wish to perform the functions described in the event of an emergency, please ask a flight attendant to reseat you."

"We remind you that this is a non-smoking flight. Smoking is prohibited on the entire aircraft, including the lavatories. Tampering with, disabling or destroying the lavatory smoke detectors is prohibited by law. If you have any questions about our flight today, please don’t hesitate to ask one of our flight attendants. Thank you.”

Nang matapos ako ay Korean version naman ang in-announce ko.

At noong natapos ako... "고맙습니" "Gomabseubnida." (Thank you.)

Nang isara na ng cabin crew ang pinto ng plane, isang additional spill na naman ang in-annnounce ko...

"Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Cheesy Demoiselle and I’m your chief flight attendant. On behalf of Captain Robert and the entire crew, welcome aboard! Airlines flight 0711, is a non-stop service from Korea to Philippines. Ourflight time will be of  3 hours and 35 minutes. We will be flying at an altitude of 35,000 feet at a ground speed of 545 miles per hour. At this time, make sure your seat backs and tray tables  are in their full upright position and that your seat belt is correctly fastened. Also, your portable electronic devices must be set to ‘airplane’ mode until an announcement is made upon arrival. Thank you.”

“Flight attendants, doors on automatic, cross-check and report. Thankyou," ani ko para sa mga flight attendedant.

Hanggang doon lang iyong spill ko at iyo namang si Jessa na regular flight attendant ang pumalit sa'kin for safety demonstration.

잘 했어. 제대로 했어. 나는 네가 고급이 될거야.""jal haess-eo. jedaelo haess-eo. naneun nega gogeub-i doelgeoya." ("Good job. You've done it right. I'm sure you'll get a high grade.") Nakangiting sabi nito sa'kin.

Nagpunta na ako sa cabin para samahan iyong mga co-trainees ko na magsagawa ng safety demonstration.

Okay naman, na-excute ko naman kaso nakakailang lang kasi may halos 15 ka tao ang nakasuot ng mask na balut ang design, at noong nagdedemo ako ay sa akin lang sila halos nakatingin.

Nang matapos ang safety demonstration at nalalapit na ang pagtake off ay naupo na kaming mga crew sa cabin.

Noong successful na ang take off ay nagsalita na ulit ang cheif attendant...

"“Ladies and gentlemen, the Captain has turned off the Fasten Seat Belt sign, and you may now move around the cabin. However we always recommend to keep your seatbelt fastened while you’re seated. In a few moments, the flight attendants will be passing around the cabin to offer you hot or cold drinks, as well the lightmeal snacks. Alcoholic drinks are also available at a nominal charge with our compliments."

Namigay na kami ng drinks at snacks. At noong lumapit ako sa mga naka-mask ay nagsiyukuan sila na naging dahilan upang mas lalo akong ma-curious sa kanila. For sure, pumasok naman siguro sila rito ng hindi naka-mask no?
