So there I was some where between sleep deprivation and hunger as I traveled from the most holy of lands to a place that makes Los Vegas looks like Disney Land, she appeared.  The first thing I noticed was the fly ass New Balance sneakers she wore, then the ever popular black leggings that seems to be the travel option of choice these days.  As I looked up I was met with beautiful eyes and a wonderful smile. UK accent with a New York City swagg, her and her travel buddy enjoyed a glass of bubbly discussing their travel plans.

So there I was some where between sleep deprivation and hunger, between the moment when you wonder what if? What if we were going to the same destination? What if we were returning to the same country we temporary call home?  What if she was alone, ideally waiting for the phrase “now boarding” to appear next to her flight? As she waved goodbye reality replaced the space she occupied.  I put my headphones on, Jazz played in my Bose and I subtlety thought, what if?
