A few days later, Leon and Maia are on a plane to attend the HR International conference. "You alright?" Maia asked Leon as they are seated on this boing 747 plane, as Leon sits there almost lifeless and speechless, looking out of the window, "yes… I am fine….." He said trying to compose himself, as he had a fear of flying, although he did serve in WW2, after a traumatic experience which never left him…."Don't tell me… you are afraid of flying…" Maia asked, however Leon never answered, as he looked out the window, holding on to the arm rest for dear life, trying to take deep breaths to relieve the nerves.
Maia chuckled slightly, "laugh all you want" Leon pouted as he looked away in shame.
