Won’t Budge
Realizing that he wouldn’t be able to reason with Laura on his own, Malcolm caught the attention of an air hostess passing by. With a polite but firm tone, he explained the situation and asked for assistance.
The air hostess, recognizing the need to diffuse the tension, approached Laura and began to calm her down.
Professional Assistance
After a few minutes of talking, the air hostess managed to convince Laura to make way for Malcolm. Although the issue had been resolved, Malcolm couldn’t help but wonder why Laura had been so difficult in the first place.
It seemed strange that someone would behave in such a manner over a simple request to move. He felt that she was discriminating against him.
Finally Gone
With Laura’s reluctant cooperation, Malcolm finally made his way to his seat, settling into the plush comfort of first class. It was fancy, but he was already in a bad mood.
He tried to put the encounter with Laura out of his mind, hoping to enjoy the remainder of his flight undisturbed. However, the incident had left a lingering sense of unease within him.
Lift- Off
Malcolm watched as the air hostess ushered large Laura to her seat a few rows back. She was bumping into seated passengers as she walked through the aisle. He shook his head.
Other people were also expressing their irritation with the old woman, who clearly seemed very entitled. Who was this rude woman on the plane?
Millionaire Seat
Malcolm settled into his first-class seat. He looked at the menu and decided to order a drink to calm down. As he glanced at the front compartment and noticed a small note sticking out.
Curiosity getting the better of him, he pulled it out and read the contents. It was from the air hostess who had intervened earlier, and it explained Laura’s behavior.
A Reason
The letter read, “Please mind Laura,” the note read, “She is a regular passenger of ours. She flies to Fort Lauderdale to visit her son every weekend. However, she is mentally unstable and requires assistance.”
Malcolm was confused, he looked around to see if anyone else received a personal note, but he was the only one. ‘Strange,’ he thought.
