I was busy scrolling through the reels on my phone when I heard the airline call out for the flight going from Goa to Chandigarh. I quickly wrapped up my earphones and tugged them between the things inside my grey laptop bag, yes I am an old soul who still uses the wired earphones.
I gathered up in the queue and was waiting for the airport people to check my boarding pass, I wanted to quickly board the flight as I was tired of sitting for more than 4 hours. Then the lady checked my boarding pass and let me check in for the flight.
I got on the shuttle bus and it dropped me near my flight, it seemed I was the last passenger to board the flight as there was no one behind me. There was a long queue in front of me and I was tired of holding my laptop bag, I didn't know what to do as the flight people were taking a lot of time to check the passes.
So, I being an observer started noticing people around me when I saw someone wearing yellow-colored Crocs, the color was so catchy that I could easily notice it at midnight.
The slippers created a curiosity in me to see who the person was so I looked up and this person was facing the other side and I couldn't see his face but just in front of him there was one more person standing.
It seems that both were talking to each other and knew each other.
I don't know what came to my mind that I instantly said in my mind that ' god please don't make me sit with them'.
I was a female passenger traveling all by myself and didn't want to sit on a 3-hour flight with two guys.
And with this, I the last passenger got in the flight and started searching for my seat, my seat number was 30B.
