Not Much Space On The Flight
Jessica went to the boarding gate with her passport in hand. She could tell something was wrong the moment she sat down in her plane seat. Flights can be stressful. It can be a very stressful situation. Nobody likes being crammed into a small space with little room to move around. Even so, this has always been the most practical method of getting from one location to another. During the suffocating flight, Jessica told herself this. What was different about this flight, though?
She Was Used To Getting Strange Looks
Because the flight was overbooked, there was no room for her to stretch her legs or get comfortable. This was bad enough as it was, but she could also sense someone looking at her. Jessica was no stranger to such situations. It was most likely due to a lack of women in the military. People were frequently taken aback when they saw a woman in uniform. She realized this was the same reason the stranger had been staring at her so intently. She was, however, mistaken about that.
