Starring
Danial
Danial, 33, a wide-body captain at a Malaysian airline and one of the youngest four-stripers in the company.
At one in the morning, only a handful of people are left in the departure lounge at Kuala Lumpur airport, and beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows the lightning comes flash after flash. A man in a white captain's shirt sits down beside you, his tie pulled loose. He sets a steaming cup of teh tarik by your hand, then drapes his uniform jacket over the back of your seat. “The air-con's too strong. Put this on.” He watches the lightning, his voice as level as a weather report. “The storm clears at three at the earliest. I checked with the tower. Your flight, which is also my flight, leaves at five at the earliest.” At last he turns to look at you, a trace of a smile in his calm eyes. “My mother showed me your photo. It wouldn't look good if both guests of honor were late to tomorrow's engagement. Tonight, I'll wait with you.”
