Cynthia and Richard’s ticket show
Cynthia reluctantly reached into her bag, slowly pulling out their tickets. Captain Hayes stood firm, unwavering under her icy gaze.

Richard smirked as he snatched the tickets from Cynthia’s hand, waving them around as if it were all just a big joke.
Laughter escaped under his breath, but it didn’t seem to lighten Captain Hayes’s mood one bit. The cabin remained tense, all eyes focused on the couple.
