IN THE ARMS OF THE HYBRID

“It is alright.” One of the flight attendants said with a smile on her face to the passengers as there was a little shake on the plane.

“It might be a good idea to keep your seatbelts on.” Another flight attendant told them softly to calm them down.

The lights flickered off and on and the passengers all gasped, there was fear in their eyes as they all glanced at each other.

“Please double check your seatbelt.” The other flight attendant told them as they helped a few with their seat belts. “Seatbelt sir,” She pointed and the man fastened his seat belt as they walked around.

A little girl who was asleep, her cheek was rosy and her hairs were curled up, she gently opened her eyes as her eyelashes fluttered. “Uncle, what is happening?” She asked as she looked at her uncle who sat next to her, rubbing her eyes with the back of her hands.

“Nothing dear, we will be home soon, you will see your parents soon okay.” Her uncle said softly as he squeezed her hands gently.

“Okay,” The little girl smiled as she looked out of the window. “Uncle, look, it is blurry outside the window…” The little girl pointed but before the uncle would look over there was a loud noise.

Boom!

There was shaking as the oxygen mask was deployed in the entire cabin as everyone took the mask to wear.

“Uncle, what is happening?” The little girl said as fear gripped her and there was panic and there was a crack on the window as the plane started going down.

The little girl looked over at her uncle, the mask was on her face but her uncle who had just hit his head was already bleeding on his head and not conscious.

Tears filled her eyes as she began to cry, there were dead people around her, passengers screaming and everything was blur, everything was moving fast and in one hit she fainted not aware of what happened next, then blackout.

…

“My baby,” A woman screamed in tears as she rushed over the scene with her husband behind her. There were police officers and search parties dispatched as they searched the place of the crash for any survivors.

“You can’t go in there, ma’am.” One of the police officers told her, there were few people also around crying for their dead ones.

“Please search for my daughter, she took this flight, she was with a man, she…” Her voice choked as her husband held her hands. “Albert, ask them to search for Rose…”

“We are still trying to identify the bodies ma’am and there are no survivors yet, none for now…”

“My daughter is alive!” The lady barked at the police officer. “She is alive!” She held his clothes. “I only spoke to her a few hours ago before she boarded the plane, she told me she was coming, I told her I was waiting…”
