Few minutes before...
Tyrone and the flight attendant exchanged pleasantries and dived into an unplanned conversation. Tyrone told the attendant about Malik. They talked about life, ups and downs. While they were at it, the plane suddenly shook and the lights flickered for a minute. People started to panic, so the attendant had to rush to ensure everything was okay.
"Ladies and gentlemen, uhhhh... don't worry, it seems we're experiencing a minor turbulence, maybe due to the change of winds, but uhhhhhhhhhhh... it's nothing major so just enjoy the flight." The pilot announced over the speakers.
After waiting for Malik for almost thirty minutes, Tyrone decided to check on him as he was getting concerned.
The toilet was locked from the inside but nobody replied when Tyrone called out for Malik. After minutes of futile struggle with the door, Tyrone called for help.
"Hey, can you open the door for me please?!" Tyrone said turning the know ceaselessly.
A female flight attendant rushed to the scene brandishing the spare keys. She then quickly opened the door asking questions such as:"who's in there?" "When he got in?"
When the door was opened, the stall was empty. Tyrone erupted with anger and grief. He started running all over the plane thinking Malik was hiding from him.
"It's not funny, man. Come out wherever you are! Malik! Malik!" Tyrone shouted whilst searching with his eyes amongst the passengers. Everyone looked at him like he was crazy.
The flight attendant trotted to the cockpit and a few seconds later, an announcement came.
"Uhhhh... if you've seen a teenage boy, called Malik, please report." The copilot announced.
Inside the cockpit... the copilot turns off the microphone and peers at the flight attendant.
"How does a person disappear off of a plane unless... uh! Maybe the aliens took him!" The copilot said laughing. He then accidentally turned on the microphone and said, "maybe he flushed himself out the plane. Is that possible?"
"We don't know, maybe it's possible." The pilot said jokingly.
Tyrone busted into the cockpit fuming with anger. "You thing this is a joke?!"
The cockpit occupants were startled by the revelance, including the flight attendant.
"Excuse me sir, you're not allowed inside-"
"Shut the fuck up!" Tyrone quickly interrupted. He then grabbed the co-pilot's headset and said, "Get out wherever you are Malik! This ain't no joke" He then stormed off and went to his seat muttering angrily under his breath.
The plane landed and search for Malik was futile. After reporting to authorities, Tyrone and his wife, who came to the airport to pick them up, went home dejected.
They researched about mysterious disappearances and found out that a girl disappeared into thin air under unclear circumstances two months before. She's from England.
