Sky High (Three Contemporary Novella's) - Plot & Excerpts
She wished with everything in her heart that she was on that plane at that moment. She didn’t care where it was going. Anyplace had to be more interesting than the Pittsburgh suburbs. Every single time she saw a plane fly overhead, she made the same wish. I want to be on that plane, going anywhere but here. As Cassie sipped her Starbucks Venti latte and watched planes execute their intricate ballet out on the tarmac at JFK, she remembered that moment, that wish, and thought “Be careful what you wish for.” She loved her job—she truly did. But most days it felt like she was spending her life in airports and on planes, measuring time in flight delays. No matter how efficient she’d gotten at flying—all the tricks and strategies she employed to make her trips run smoothly—there was no way to eradicate stress and drudgery from business travel. It always sucked. Today, the stress had started and she wasn’t even on the plane yet. The boarding area was a cacophony of noise. A frazzled mother fruitlessly tried to settle her fussing baby while her toddler son ran in circles around her pretending he was a flying plane.
