I was boarding the plane when i notice the captain drinking before the flight, both Pilots! I couldn't believe my eyes. What if they get drunk? What if we crash in the middle of the Atlantic? I wasnt my responsibilaty but i thought it would be safe to know what the pilots were drinking? So i asked.
"Miss?" I said To the flight attendant
"Yes?" She replied with a great big smile
"Why are the pilots, well, drinking before a flight?"
She lost her great big smile, it had turned into a frown
"They were not drinking alcohol, besides it's none of you business either."
"As a passenger it is my right, I just want to feel safe!" I yelled "Oops..." I said quietly
"Oops, Indeed. you made a fool out of me and yourself."
"I-I" I paused she was right, wasnt she?
I tipped my chair all the way back then noticed there was a guy looking suspisous by the back of the plane.
Hours i thought went past..But it had only been a few mins.
"Miss." the mean attendant said
"Hi!"
She grimissed. "Can I get you anything?"
"Yeah. You can actually can you get me a smooth flight? With sober pilots."
She smerked. the went and asked the same questions to the other passengers.
I dozed off and listened to what the other passengers where ordering
"One Grape wine. Two juice boxes."
"Ma'am Can i have some apple sauce its my favorite!"
"Ma'am we don't Have apple sauce"
"Oh Man!" said the old woman "I need apple sauce!"
I laughed apple sauce.
I hadn't realized that the plane had taken a sharp turn to the left. As I dozed off I heard a conversation-more like arguing, between a couple and their child.
"Hannah, Its just not possible."
"Mom! Please."
"Hannah-We are poor as it is, we cant possibly afford that trip."
"Ok...mom. we will talk later." Hannah said with a giggle.
An hour passed by and i thought "shouldn't we have landed in Beijing by now?"
I looked at my watch 1:30 "hmm." i said quietly but not quiet enough that Hannah heard me.
"Whats hmm?." She asked curiously, Hannah was 9 years old, long brown hair, brown eyes, and a little over weight, but she wasn't afraid of flying.
"Well." I tried to think of how to say that we were late to arrive but i didn't want to scare poor Hannah. "Well. I think my watch is broken hmm?"
She smiled.
While i was waiting my anxiety was getting worse. I had decided instead of having a panic attack I would count the passengers and crew on the flight. It had taken me a half hour but there was 12 Crew, and 227 passengers. So about 239 people abord this plane.
