"Good evening, sir." the man sitting on the left side of the cockpit greeted Noah when he entered the flight deck.
"A good evening to you too, Captain Aigasaki. I'll be your co-pilot tonight." he sat down on the right side of the plane, skillfully strapped his seatbelt.
"It's been a while since we fly together, sir." Captain Aigasaki said in passing not really starting a conversation.
"Uhm, indeed it has been a while. Thank you for coming on such short notice. I hope us flying together after a long time is in better circumstances."
"It's my pleasure, sir," he replied in a curt and polite manner.
He is two decades older than Noah, but this young man commands respect, not for the reason that he would be the next CEO of the pharmaceutical empire of his family, but because he exudes an innate aura of authority.
