The trail of questions inside Akira's head was making her restless. She was totally clueless and had no idea why Raymond was acting so cold and distant. She kept pondering for some time and thought that maybe he didn't recognize her so she blurted her heart out -
"We have met before on a flight journey. I was the girl who spilled coffee on you and we sat next to each other in the flight as well, Singapore to New York."
"Do you remember?"
Raymond listen to her ranting about the journey that they had together and got pissed. Right now for him, she was just a gold digger who was climbing up the ladder using the shoulders of others. So he decided to cut into her talk and asked -
"Can we start the interview if your monologue is done?"
Akira was taken aback by his question. She was deeply bruised not because he was hurtful but because he was acting all indifferent. This was not the man that she met on the flight. She tried to maintain her composure and replied,
"Sure sir".
