"Plane and Prejudice" Volume II, Part Two

This is the Fourth installment of a series that will run for two weeks. Please, if you have not already, read the previous updates, three corresponding updates along with this one.

Chapter 3:
With the snack service now completed, Freddy took his seat in the rear of the plane. So it was to be, that he a once well-regarded minister would now be subjected to the lowest of all positions, a Coach-class attendant. Perhaps one day he would be able to repent for his sins (an enormous gaming debt and the accidental death of a local child), and then be able to once again return to his pulpit.

Chapter 4:
The conversation between Adrian Sharples and Caity continued to flow freely, and so enthralled was she with him, that she paid little heed to Lisa Borstein’s constant interruptions and Adrian’s regular asides directed particularly to her.

After some time had passed, Caity excused herself and left the party in search of refreshment. A flight attendant was standing near the soft, dark blue curtain of secrecy and Caity confidently approached.

As the attendant prepared her drink, Caity stole a quick glance through the curtain, her eyes finding their way to Mr. Wright. To Caity’s surprise, he was napping peacefully in his chair. In slumber, he looked almost angelic and Caity wondered if it could be the same man she unfortunately met with earlier. Caity then spied something that shocked her utterly. On his lap, Mr. Wright’s computer screen shone brightly. It’s wallpaper, incredibly enough, was the most adorable picture of a small kitten lost in a basket of begonias. “Could there be some good in this man?” thought she. It was then that Caitlin made up her mind to find out which of the contradictory portraits of Mr. Wright was correct.

END OF THE SECOND VOLUME
