Ria looks at his watch. Looks like he made in time to the airport...
The floor of Bandana International Airport terminal was rather empty this evening, save a few janitors and security personnel. It seems with the vacation holiday over, there were less people taking late night flights. The best part about it all, there were no lines at check in.
Ria takes a seat by the window, the plastic bench creaking as he laid back. Through the window, he can see the lights of planes and vehicles moving about in the shadows of the night. In the distance, a passenger airliner sweeps down onto the runway, the roar of its engines a sharp whistle that disturbs the night air.
Bored with the scene, Ria turns back to the LCD screen above him, listing the flight status of his soon-to-arrive plane. Only twenty minutes to go...
Ria was more than excited when he found out he was assign to this IR mission. Finally, a chance to leave the office and meddle with foreign dignitaries while enjoying a glass of martini...a sure way to forget about the stresses of his job and love life. This will be the best vacation yet...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ria boards his plane, which was as empty as the terminal. A nice-looking flight attendant shows him to his first class seat.
"Will you like something to drink, sir?"
"A glass of lime juice will be fine, thank you."
The girl smiles, then walks away to the back of the plane. Ria leans back on the leather seat and closes his eyes. "Should I ask for her number?" Ria thought to himself. No, that will be stupid. Flight attendants don't make good dates, especially when they're flying around the world 24/7. Better to wait and check out on some local Mor'on girls instead...
