- ABU DHABI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT16 JANUARY 2016 8:00am
- Yeah, you enjoy that window seat while I enjoy whichever fat ass sits next to me...
- Just 8 more hours...
- MEANWHILE...IN THE AIRPORT TERMINAL
- You're one of the last to board ma'am so if you could please hurry. I see you've selected an aisle seat
- Please board ASAP ma'am, your luggage will be right behind you
- Yes yes, I am on my way. It's in Economy... so I have plenty of time
- Just 8 hours until I see Paula! I can do this flight...headphones in and maybe even get some sleep
- Mile high club after the champagne dearest?
- KATHERINE SPOTS AN EMPTY SEAT BESIDE TWO BOYS, ONE OF WHOM APPEARS NOTABLY TIRED
- Looks like this it...Oooh...this boy is actually kinda cute!
- Hello!
- Umm...A...h....Hi there
- Known as Greek Mythology today, few people follow their destiny and find the one person who completes the others soul - the other half to the same whole. It is a love so rare nowadays, people perceive as magic.
- K.R.G
- M.E.D
- You see when I created the human race I took two halves of the same soul and placed both lifeforms on Earth in the same lifetime
- 8 HOURS LATER
- I'd really like that. Oh but I'm only here for four days... I'd love to see you again though
- I hope this isn't too forward but can I add you on Facebook and maybe we can meetup around London, only if you're free, I know you're here to see your friend
- You're insanely beautiful, you're so down to earth, you're warm, you're kind, and best of all...you're a massive nerd!
- You're hilarious, you're smart, we love the same music, you love animals, and you're accent is so dreamy...
- That's okay, we'll see you on the other side of immigration
- We've both added you on Facebook!
- If not I'll speak to you soon and meet you somewhere in London
- Great! Wow what a quick flight. Oh...but I think I have to go join this line to get through
- I hope so
- Okay. Take care! It was so nice to meet you both! Off I go to find Paula!
- Bye for now, Katherine!
- I'm going to marry that girl
- Bye!
- OXFORD STREET M&S, TWO DAYS LATER
- I'm not sure if you're going to get these texts in time...my signal in here is terrible
- Hey Marc, I'm in M&S on Oxford Street and finally on my own for a bit, do you have time for lunch?
- I'm not going to have another chance as I'm on my way home soon - arghh but I don't think you'll get this message in time for your lunch break
- I just can't shake this feeling that she's something more than just some girl I met on a plane once and spoke to for 8 hours straight
- Hmm I haven't heard from Katherine today...
- I wonder if she wants to see me again...
- No, I didn't hear back. I think my signal was in and out quite a lot
- Yeah...maybe...
- Aw well, maybe next time you're in London!
- How was your day out today, did you see that plane boy?
- ARGH FUCKING C*&TSo, d'ya meet up with that chick?
- Nah her signal was fucked we missed out. She's off tomorrow so I guess that's it...
- ONE NIGHT, MONTHS LATER...
- But ANYWAY then I got way too wasted the night before so I listened to Nicki Minaj and got my nails done in the morning... best hangover cure!
- My boyfriend at the time was a total hero, he carried me over his shoulder to the hotel
- ...so then I was like totally freaked out by all the people and I just HAD to get out of there
- Uh I don't mean to be rude, but I don't think this is going to work out
- You're just not what I'm looking for
- So how far is your place?
- You're just nothing like her
- Look I am sorry, we just aren't going to be a good match
- Excuse me?? Ugh what exactly are you looking for if it's not me
- Mmm whatever, it's your loss
- MEANWHILE... IN MELBOURNE
- And so this is why we expect inflation to recover slower than previously forecast
- Me too, should be good! Won't be a late one though, trying to save up that $$$, you know how it is
- Aw thanks so much Colin. Happy Friday to you too, what are you up to?
- Yeah, you too!
- Hey Katherine, great presso! And Happy Friday!
- Oh nothing much, just getting drinks with some mates. What about you?
- Yeah all too well... well have a great night!
- THAT SAME EVENING
- I don't know... maybe someday but for right now, I need to go home!
- Ahh how wise you've always been...but come on you know me, I am happy doing me. I want my house, I want to do well in my career
- I'm done with that for a while... you know how well that last one went
- Hahaha, okay okay one more round but then I am DONE! I need to get home and sleep!
- Gurlll you need to relax a little and stop trying to get to the end game already
- The right one is out there waiting for you
- Okay okay but just because you're single doesn't mean you need to stay that way forever!
- LATER THAT SAME EVENING

- Hah you're too kind, whatcha cookin there? Pasta hey?
- I did NOT know that, but I'm impressed! What are you doing for the rest of the day? Or night? What time is it?
- You're right I'm probably embarrassing myself right now. You were on my mind is all...
- Yeah well I am quite the cook you know

- Good night Katherine
- CONVERSATIONS CONTINUED OVER THE MONTHS AND YEARS, EACH CHECKING IN ON THE OTHER ON OCCASION (MOSTLY MARC CHECKING IN)
-
-
-
- IT WAS A LOVE STORY WAITING TO UNFOLD, IF ONLY ONE OF THEM COULD TAKE THAT STEP AND CONFESS JUST HOW MUCH THE OTHER MEANT TO THEM
- What's news?
- That's great, are you enjoying it? Good news on your travel, finally got a ticket!
- I am thank you ! Haha yeah took forever haha going to Melbourne then Sydney then Brisbane to see a mate before back to Melbourne then home :) Maybe I'll bump into you sometime there
- Did I tell you I changed jobs? A lot has changed my side, new house, new job and a lot of travelling this year, and yes even to AUS in December! How about yourself?
- I wonder if he'll ever come for me
- I wonder if she'll want me to come
- NOW KIDS, THIS PART OF THE STORY IS A BIT OF A BUMMER FOR TEAM MARC BUT LISTEN UPKATHERINE'S HAND WAS "PROMISED" TO ANOTHER, AND SHE TOLD MARC SHE HAD TO LET HIM GO TO GIVE HER RELATIONSHIP THE BEST SHOT
- THIS SORT OF EXCHANGE OF PLESANTRIES CONTINUED UNTIL ONE CONVERSATION TRANSPIRED THAT CHANGED MARC'S LIFE, OR SO HE THOUGHT...
- UNTIL ONE DAY A FEW MONTHS LATER, HE NOTICED A FEW SUBTLE CHANGES ON HER SOCIAL MEDIA (NOT THAT THERE WAS MUCH TO GO OFF) SO HE THOUGHT HE MIGHT SOON REACH OUT
- BEING THE GENTLEMAN THAT HE WAS, HE RESPECTED KATHERINE'S WISHES AND KEPT HIS DISTANCE
- I ended it but I'm not upset anymore Mama, once I knew the only way was through, it all felt oddly liberating after.I just feel so locked out of love, like I'm not meant for that kind of happiness in my life. Maybe it's just meant to be my work, my family and my friends. It feels like I'm stuck on a highway and I can't change lanes. I don't think I'll find love here.
- Oh my baby, how could you ever feel that way. You are loving and caring beyond compare, you deserve true love and true happiness.I know you didn't feel it before, but just know it's not meant to feel that way. Keep your mind and heart open to find what you truly deserve my love.
- You're right mama, but for now I want to finish my book and figure out how I can make the best life for our family
- A FEW WEEKS WENT BY WHEN...
- Hey Katherine, been a while, how are you doing? How is everything going?
- Hey Dugas, I'm doing really well thanks, just on a morning walk...how about you? Nice to hear from you!
- Oh really nice, just finishing up in the gym. How's things your side? The wedding must be close now surely?
- Ah that's not happening anymore, we went out separate ways. It was for the best, I felt really great afterwards actually.
- SOME WEEKS LATER (I KNOW, THIS WAS A SLOWWWWW BURNING FLAME)
- Hearing his voice on the phone the other day was so calming.Wow, and he was so easy to talk to. What was that call... 90 minutes?Okay, be brave Katherine, here goes.
- Hiya Marc, fancy a Zoom call one day soon?
- Yeah! I'm free this Thursday and Friday. Let me know whenever suits you
- Okay...deep breath...Here goes... logging inWow is that really him??
- I wonder if he still has feelings for me...
- Hi Marc... it's been a while
- Hi Katherine, wow...
- THE HOURS ON THE VIDEO CALL PASSED BY IN MINUTES AND SOON ENOUGH KATHERINE AND MARC WERE SPEAKING EVERY WAKING MINUTETHEY NEEDED TO BE IN THE SAME ROOM TO SEE WHAT THIS COULD BE...BUT ONE SMALL THING STOOD IN THEIR WAY...
- COVID-19 PANDEMICGLOBAL LOCKDOWNSBORDERS CLOSED
- There's something I really feel like I need to tell you and I don't know how long I can keep it in for
- I need to be with you. If coming to the UK is the only way, then I will come
- I know... me too... I want to hold you when I tell you though
- I love you Katherine
- I love you too Marc
- TOGETHER, PLANS WERE MADE TO GET KATHERINE TO THE UK AT THE PEAK OF THE PANDEMIC
- I have to know what we could be. I'll jump for you. I'm ready to get on that plane for you... for us.
- I know baby girl, I'm scared too. But I promise you, if you take this jump, I will catch you
- I'm all packed baby. Just one more day and I can finally kiss youIs it okay to say that I'm still scared?
- TOWARDS THE END OF THE NEAR 24 HOUR JOURNEY...
- Ohh my godThis is happening Just breathe He's so close to you now...finally... I can feel him
- AFTER A PAINFULLY LONG WAIT THROUGH IMMIGRATION...THEY FINALLY LAY EYES ON EACHOTHER IN PERSON FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 5 YEARS... AND BEFORE MOVING... THEY SIMPLY HELD EACH OTHER FOR A FEW MINUTES
- Can I get us some coffee?
- MARC PULLED KATHERINE CLOSE, PULLED DOWN HER MASK AND KISSED HER FOR THE FIRST TIME. HE PULLED AWAY WHEN...
