Sympathy From A Young Couple
A young couple sitting in the row ahead turned around, offering me sympathetic smiles. ‘Tough break, huh?
‘ the guy said, nodding toward my prized window seat. ‘Yeah,’ I replied, managing a chuckle. They shared a story about a missed flight connection that turned into a whole vacation’s worth of mishaps.
Their sympathy helped cushion my annoyance, their camaraderie making the cabin feel a bit warmer.
