Chapter 15
"Yes I want to book a flight to Vietnam." The teller lady looked up at me who mouth agape and blue eyes wide. "That's not funny miss." I roll my eyes at her stupidity. "I'm not joking I want...no I need to get to Vietnam. I need to find my husband!" "Miss there are no flights to Vietnam the only one who get over there are the soldiers." I sigh and hang my head then turn around and walk away from the front desk. Why was this so hard? I had already been to3 air ports already trying to get there I had even driven to freakin' New York! Even JFK airport won't help me...I felt defeated already and it was only 3 days in.
"Hey you!" I look to my right to see a scruffy looking guyin around his early 20's. His scruffy hair framed his face and fell in wisps around his forehead, his brown eyes barely visible through his hair and his cheekbones very prominent.
"Can I help you?" a little irritated by his bluntness. "No but I can help you." I look him up and down sceptically "Ok but how?" I cross my arms and he rolls his eyes. "I fly supplies into Vietnam every 3 weeks and the next shipment is leaving tomorrow I heard you speaking to the teller over there about your husband and well I know what it's like to lose someone over there. I need some help loading it all and unloading the supplies though so if you pretend that you're simply there to volunteer I can fly you over there no price or strings attached." My mouth falls open and I stare at him wide eyed was he serious? How...why was he doing this? This is ridiculous he doesn't even know me why is he being so nice?
"Why would you do that?" I shake my head and turn up my eye brows so confused by his act of generosity. "I just said I needed one more volunteer so you would also be helping me out and like I said before I know what is like to lose someone over there." "Right sorry." He nods and writes down something on a piece of paper he pulled out of his back pocket. "Meet me here tomorrow at 6 am." I take it and nod he nods and walks away.

"Hey you're here!" he exclaims happily as he moves towards me. "Well yeah...by the way what was your name again?" "Oh right...it's Harry and yours was?" "Kate. So where do you want me?" he nods and points towards an area of wooden boxes. "Just over there just load them in and then we will be ready to go." He smiles and I nod.
I pick up one of the boxes and carry it up the ramp on to the plane it was full of wooden boxes and had a row of seats on either side. I finish carrying the other boxes up there and then returned to Harry who was checking things off on a list. "What do I do now?" he looks up at me "get your stuff and go strap in." he nods to the row of seats.
I put my bag under the seat and then strap myself in and get ready to go find Two-Bit.
