Chapter 25

My dad dropped us off at the airport. It's a Saturday morning. The flight to Melbourne is delayed for 3 hours. Stupid PRC detours messing with our air space.

"Hey wanna go grab breakfast?" Freedom asked.

"All that's open is Whatahoagie." I reply.

"Remember they make em with fresh bolillos. And there's coffee, we both need a morning cap."

"Alright fine."

I had a meatball hoagie with extra cheese and Freedom had a red bean breakfast one.

We kinda just chill there for an hour (gosh their chairs are comfy).

"We shoulda brought books." I said.

"Wanna watch a movie?" she asked.

Thankfully with modern technology, you can Blackteeth sync 2 headphones at the same time to one phone.

We watched a movie called "Terra's Fourteen" from like 2000, the graphics not being 8k are kinda cringe. But the movie was better than I expected for a 50 year old movie.

When the movie ended, we only had an hour to go (we were supposed to be there only an hour early, but due to the delay it became 4).

After that we played a fighting game on our phones called Brain Boys (don't ask she loves competitive games like this).

After that, WE FINALLY make it. I'm kinda sad because I want to watch the super bowl tomorrow but Freedom wanted to leave today. Stupid college orientation. It's Hippos vs. Jags too... Gonna hope to be able to watch it at the hotel.

It is a 10 hour flight, it SUCKS. Freedom fell asleep on my shoulder, I just stacked my head on hers and slept as well, when we woke up, we were hugging. It was only 3 hours...

"Would you like something to drink?" The flight attendant asked, it comes with the flight, so why not?

"I'll take a diet joke." I replied.

"And I'll take black iced coffee." Freedom replied.

"Alright." the attendant replied.

After that, we kind of just held hands, talked, kissed, etc. for like an hour.

You know what's stupid? It's 2050 and you still can't use wifi on planes.

Freedom and I forgot to bring books and a dvd player, we essentially have nothing to do. The flight only has tvs for business class and above... Dangit.

We continued what we were doing until an old Karen of a woman yelled at us, saying that she "felt uncomfortable seeing a couple making out on a plane." Mind your own business woman, we're bored too I was about to say, but there were a bunch of Chinese people on the flight and you know how they feel about elders (Japan doesn't let elders slide at being as annoying and ignorant as China does after crashing our economy so it passed to all of us younger Japanese, I still respect everyone, but this old lady ticked me off so hard).

We just held each other and made jokes and stuff, we were sooooooo bored to the point to where we arm wrestled. My biceps aren't as strong as hers but my forearms basically kinda just resist her arm for 10 minutes until I beat her. We went with her dominant arm next and she rekt me in like 30 seconds.

We talked for a while longer, we were bored, but we were able to alleviate that boredom with each other.

Also next time we do anything like this we are definitely going with the business class flight, at least those give you private small booths for up to 2 people with a bolted down futon. First class has like a bar and game consoles and all kinds of other crap, must be nice.

"Babe I'm hungry." Freedom said.

"Let's order some food." I told her.

When the flight attendant came around, it was like 6 hours into the flight, it was 6 pm and we only ate breakfast.

"Hey sir, what are y'all selling for food?" I asked him.

"We got Del Burrito pre-made. That's kind of it." He said.

BRO I WORK THERE I EAT IT LIKE EVERY DAY. I'M SICK OF IT.

But since that's all there is, we ordered.

"I'll take a Legendary Curly Fry Burrito with Carne Asada and a Spritz." Freedom ordered.

"I'll take a Legendary Curly Fry Burrito with Chicken and Guacamole and an extra large side of Guacamole Curly Fries with Bacon and Cheese. And a Diet Joke." I ordered.

"That'll be 30 bucks with taxes included." he said.

"Alright, here." I say while paying in cash. I hate using my debit card so I always try to have at least 200 bucks in cash on me at all times.

We ate, it got our minds off our boredom. The side was for later in case we got hungry.

After 4 MORE LONG HOURS on the plane, we finally make it to Melbourne...
