“It’s not the same,” Bradley lamented, burying his face in his hands, still struggling to accept the situation.
His dreams of traveling with Sabrina had been shattered, and the opportunity he had so carefully planned was lost.
How he had looked forward to confessing his love to her after the trip!
But now all he could do was reassure himself that there would be another time.
With Sabrina still holding on to memories of Tyrone, she might not even accept his confession.
The following day, Sabrina and Bettie accompanied Bradley to the airport, where people bustled back and forth in the terminal
hall.
Not far from the scene, a crowd had gathered beneath the massive screen displaying flight schedules. Various individuals held
signs, appearing as if they were there to welcome someone from a flight.
Sabrina paused, gesturing to the check-in counter and suggested, “Why don’t I leave you here? The check-in counter is just over
there. I won’t accompany you further.”
Bradley glanced at his watch, hesitating before responding, “Alright, you can go. Don’t let me hold up your journey. We’ll catch up
when you return.”
Sabrina was about to reply when a shout from behind interrupted her.
“Bradley’s over there!”
As the words were spoken, she heard the sound of countless feet rushing in their direction.
Sabrina turned around to see a frenzied crowd surging towards them Before she could react, she found herself enveloped,
squeezed in the chaos.
People brushed past her in a flurry, disorienting her
The crowd’s excitement escalated, and suddenly, Sabrina was struck hard, falling to the floor. Her cry was lost in the commotion,
and a foot landed on her leg.
More people passed, some accidentally stepping on her, others inadvertently kicking her
Sabrina’s screams went unheard.
As she struggled to rise, a foot came down on her back
A person in high heels nearly stepped on her head.
Sabrina protected her head with her hands and waited for the crowd to disperse.
The air was thin at the bottom, and breathing became a challenge.
Sabrina soon found herself feeling dizzy.
A sharp kick to her head nearly caused the person behind to trip over her, and she was scolded as she lay there on the floor.
“What’s the matter with you? Why are you lying there?”
The kick inflicted a sharp pain throughout her body.
