Chapter 26

Sarina

"I don't want to come, but why do you keep insisting?" I asked Maximus, who was pestering me about our trip to Las Vegas.

"Why don't you want to?" he asked.

"You're annoying. Didn't I already tell you I'm scared of getting into airplanes! How many times will you ask me that?" I answered, rolling my eyes at him. Why does he want me to come with him?

"I'm with you; what are you afraid of? And didn't you fly when you went home to Catanduanes?" Oh yeah, I forgot about that.

"That was different; it was a short flight. It's a different story with an international flight." I saw him exhale, probably thinking I was being unreasonable. But being in the air for a long time is really scary. "What if the plane crashes? Of course, you'll save yourself first and then the beautiful women you see, especially the sexy flight attendants!"

"Seriously, Sarina? You're thinking about those things?" he asked, seeming to run out of patience. Why? Is it wrong to think that way? What I'm saying is true.
