To board or not to board

IV




-        “Well, we need to go to registration. Are you feeling OK? You seem a little fidgety?”

• 
  

  -        “No, I'm fine sweet! I'm fine!” - Kira said with huge silly smile

  -        “OK. Let's roll then” - Brian grinned back - “Silly!”

  Registry had few people ahead of them. They stood in two different queues and smiled at each other.

  
  

  They were so close to their dream. Kira could almost feel the wings of freedom growing out of her shoulders. Just few little steps and whole month is theirs to spend the way they want. “How will you get back? Have you thought well about it?” – Those questions flashed for a second in Kira's head, but she shook it off and gave her passport for the registration.

  
  

  -        “Here is your boarding pass and passport, have a nice flight!”

  -        “Thank you!”

  Kira looked to her side. Brian was finishing too. They closed their hands together and smiled happily.

  Custom control was pretty easy. They had no luggage just her belt, cell phones, and his belt with money.

  Custom asked to scan Brian's belt. It was too big. Passport control line was long but moved very quickly.

  In 10 minutes they were inside the departure zone and had an hour to spare.

  
  

  -        “What do you want to do?”

  -        “Smoking zone! And you can get us something refreshing to drink! If they do not have good Champagne ask them if we could get it from Duty free shop and get them to serve it for us, OK?”

  -        “You are crazy! But I love that in you!” his eyes did looked worried and so tender.

  Kira knew it was his first attempt to say those magic words. She smiled instantly.

  -        “I know honey and I love you too!”

  -        “!?!” - and a huge smile. Kira got it right.

  Kira light up her cigarette and inhaled with pleasure. She sat there on the bench and could feel all eyes on her. She couldn't care less. She watched Brian talking to the bartender, giving him money, than going to duty free shop, coming back with bottle of Moёt and finally approaching to her with two glasses of bubbly in his hand.

  -        “I've just put out my ciggi. You are good! Under 7 minutes!”

  -        “Cheers! To our...may I call it our honeymoon?”

  -        “Oh yes it is our honeymoon, baby!”

  
  

  They finished those two glasses and returned to the bar. Bartender pored more and smiled eagerly to Kira checking out her bra less top. Brian noticed that and addressed him directly

  
  

  -        “Do you want a tip today?” - Bartender stopped and nodded.

  -        “Than stop checking out my girlfriends boobs!”

  -        “I am very sorry, so sorry, Sir. She just very beautiful. So sorry again”

  -        “Yeah! OK!”

  Kira knew that Brian had enough to drink and she had to sober him up. But how on Earth you gonna explain to drunken person who never done anything to do coke to get sober??

  -        “ I have to powder my nose, be good!”

  -        “ Don't be too long!”

  -        “I'll be quick!”

  Kira walked into ladies and searched for an empty cabin. She found one it looked more or less clean. She closed the door behind and started looking through her belt.

  -        “Yes!” - she raised her head and hands in silent emotion.

  Paper from the list for Cash and carry was perfect. She took of her belt and found hidden spot. With her nails made sure he has enough to snort but not too much and folded it in a proper way.

  Some one did enter the toilets and grabbed her doorknob. Her heart did miss the bit. But person occupied cabin next door. Kira took out once rolled banknote and rolled it again. Made massive line, divided it in two and flashed the toilet. Noise from running and flashing water gave her time to snort her lines in.

  “OK!” - she felt extremely happy and jumpy. Rapidly everything was raped up and put to places where it belongs. Small package for Brian went in her pocket in reachable place. She inhaled once more. When door opened she looked in the mirror. From there nice young lady slightly tired but with lively eyes did look at her. Kira smile and moved to the sink to wash her hands. Lady from the cabin next door flashed her toilet. Kira checked her nose for coke traces. All clear. One more check for belongings and she is out.

  
  

  Brian sat on the bar stool and looked drained. He had one empty glass next to him and one full for Kira.

  She moved towards him and put her hand on his thigh. He looked up very tired and she whispered words in his ears. At first he looked shocked and stared at her in disbelieve but as she continued on he nodded and said few silent “Yes”. Kira asked him to stand up and when leaned to kiss him she dropped package in his pants pocket. Brain went to the man's room slightly staggering.

  
  

  -        “I'll be in the smoking area, babe!”

  -        “OK”

  -        “ You are leaving already, Miss?” - Bartender looked upset

  -        “We are coming back, do not worry!”

  -        “But maybe we could have a little private chat... just the two of us?”

  Kira looked at him with no hidden emotions. She could not believe that he would even imagine her fallen for him.

  -        “No comments...”

  -        “I see, sorry”

  Kira turned around at him and finally saw who he really was – a very young man with very naive soul.

  She turned back and approached him.

  -        “Look it is not you. You are a very sweet guy. You just have to learn how to see the difference between the ladies. I am not available and you saw it and still persisted and right now you are hurt. So next time, be more careful, OK?”

  -         “OK, Thank you!” - he looked at Kira like she was from another planet.

  Kira went to smoke her cigarette. She needed one. This morning was way too emotional.
