There was a special place in hell reserved for the people who designed the
lighting in airplane bathrooms, Carly thought, glaring at her reection in the
tiny, grubby mirror. She’d already spotted three new gray hairs since she
started brushing her teeth.
Afer a full day in transit, she felt exhausted. And
thanks to this mirror and the ghastly overhead lighting, she looked it. Her
freckled cheeks were pale, her skin dry and pinched. Two purple-gray
smudges under her eyes made them look swollen and sunken, and gave her
whole face a vaguely undead vibe. Despite her lip balm’s best efforts, it was
no match for twenty-plus hours in a plane, and now her lips were chapped
and aking. And, shit, make that four new gray hairs.
Carly spat into the teeny sink and rinsed her mouth, scowling into the
mirror while she swirled the water around her gums. is is true friendship,
she thought, packing her toothbrush and toothpaste back into her travel
toiletries case, spending a whole day sitting upright in a series of tin cans full
of recycled air so I can stand up with Heather at her wedding. She was
basically a lock for sainthood, she reasoned, as she opened the door carefully
and slipped back out into the coach section, offering a quick, apologetic
smile to the impatient-looking middle-aged man who had been seated
across the aisle from her snoring loudly for the last twelve hours but was
now waiting outside the door. He slipped past her, unsmiling, into the
bathroom.
Of course, Carly conceded once she was settled back in her lumpy aisle
seat, Heather would do the same for her—if Carly ever got married, which
seemed unlikely. Heather had a habit of always showing up when Carly
needed her, though. Like two years ago, when Heather’s ex had gotten Carly
red and Heather had leapt into action to get Carly’s job back. And it wasn’t
like Carly was sorry to be missing three weeks of a particularly slushy
February in New York to drink champagne and go to the beach and hang
out with her best friend. So, maybe not sainthood, she thought, swiping
through the action movies on offer and wondering if she could squeeze in
one more before the plane landed. But maybe some kind of friendship medal.
A plaque, at the very least. Carly must have dozed off during the opening
credits, because she jolted awake when the plane touched down. e
hundred people around her seemed to heave a collective sigh of relief.
As soon as the plane came to a stop, the man across the aisle from her
stood up and reached for the overhead bin. Carly rolled her eyes. Why did
people do that? Did they not understand how lines worked? Did they think
the rst person to leap out of their seat back in row 56 would somehow be
allowed to leave the plane before everyone else?
Trying to ignore the fact that his khaki-clad ass was now perilously close
to her face, Carly pulled her phone from her backpack and turned it on.
