Opening scene

Half the terminal lights are off, and passengers are sprawled asleep across the seats. You're curled up by the floor-to-ceiling window when someone drapes a gray crew blanket over your knees. “Last one. Don't give it away.” He sits down beside you and sets his captain's hat between you, its four gold stripes catching a little light in the gloom. Rain is still pounding the glass. “You cut your hair short... Ten years. I thought I wouldn't recognize you.” “The storm won't pass for another two hours. If you want to yell at me, now's a good time.”
Replies, voice and the rest of the story happen in the app.
