Three, .is a crowd

Chapter 9

Three is a crowd.

He glared at her; she did not blink an eyelid.

"Is one brother not enough for you Lisa? " Keith asked sarcastically.

..."I was just wondering if you were okay." she responded.

"Get the hell out of here." he snapped at her.

Chris let go of her, squeezing her hands to comfort her. Keith is being a total jerk right now; he can do nothing about it.

"And by the way, you address me properly." he reprimanded her as she opened the door.

..."Yes Sir." she remarked.

She opened and closed the door with teary eyes and rushed into the lavatory.

She made a fool of herself; nope... She made a bitch out of herself.

She looked into the mirror and saw a mess. She cleaned up and inspected her makeup and hair.

She walked back to the rear galley thankful no crew saw her when she came out of the cockpit a mess….except for one person.

"We have been waiting for you to come out in pieces, what took you so long." Natalie greeted her cheerfully.

"Blame it on the turbulence "...Lisa replied with a smile.

..."Ok, we will wait for you to change to your serving clothes and shoes"

….Lisa changed.

"Okay, guys let's go: Tea or coffee. Beef or fish." Natalie recites with Lisa as they push the trolley out of the galley into the cabin.

Followed by Micheal and Tom with drinks and duty-free items.

They commence serving with bright smiles hiding their disgust at some passengers perfectly.

Some made a fuse about the seat reclining being too tight for snoring passengers. One asked for Lisa's phone number and she said no.

The man said he would complain to the captain that she was rude to him.

Above all, they finished serving on time and they retreated to the galley.

After a while Micheal went to the front galley to get the crew meal, he was told by Jane to tell Natalie to come to get it by herself again.

Natalie did not go,

so Jane brought the crew meal to the rear galley personally to confront Natalie.

"The last I checked I'm the senior on this flight so why do you disobey orders?" Jane declared.

..."As the senior, it is your responsibility that the crew eats on time and I can see you fail at that by refusing to give out the meals." Natalie contradicted.

"I did not fail; here are your meals. Only you can insult with a smile, Be careful Natalie."

She turned and left.

She will have to tackle her later privately; Natalie had disgraced quite a few seniors. she will avoid that without an audience.

"Natalie, you got no chill." Tom grinned.

..."I do ...I just can't stand the unprofessionalism of some senior clowns." she grinned back.

The crew ate their meals and enjoyed the rest of the flight chatting and attending to call buttons.

THE CABIN CREW PREPARE FOR LANDING.

Lisa tensed ...she has to go back into the cockpit; her tummy starts to clench.

They cleared the trays and secured the cabin, Lisa changed her clothes and proceeded to the cockpit.

Captain Chris automatically unlocks the door and lets out a loud fart.

"Why are you trying to suffocate me brother?" Keith smirked.

..."Because you were being an arsehole!"

"To Lisa?" She deserves it; she is a manipulative, easy, loose, incompetent crew that will do anything to save her job.

She knows nothing about this flight except to unbuckle your belt smoothly; she doesn't even have the grace to buckle it back, she is a nymphomaniac and she has no dignity!"

..."Another time I would have punched your mouth and broken your j-"....he stopped suddenly.

As Lisa walked in and closed the door... Her face was miserable.

Awkward

A knife could cut through the air, it was that choking.

Lisa pulled out the jumpseat and fastened the shoulder harness, She stiffened a sob.

Captain Keith busied himself at the controls as Captain Chris expelled steams.

The three emotions smothering the air are going down faster than the aircraft as it descends, it was thunder strikes!

Captain Keith had set out to punish Lisa but instead, he had hurt his brother in the process, he cannot even remember the last time they fought.

Just one time they broke a rule and all is down the drain fast. He should have fired the damned Lisa immediately.

After all, what he said about her is the truth.

She used his body! At least fuckboy got a blow job; he might as well feel guilty!

Shame on you brother and damn you, Lisa.

He hardens his heart and concentrates harder to land the plane.

Captain Chris had never been this angry at his brother. He was hurtful especially when they had all undeniably lost control.

Instead, he had excluded himself from the shame. He felt so much pity for Lisa, he knows she heard most of the backlash.

If only he could get up to console her; she must feel dirty being with them.

Keith was mean! He has no right to say such words to any woman and not the one he almost fucked! He must apologise to her.

His next flight is cancelled. He is emotionally compromised.

Lisa fights back tears, the last thing she wants is for these two to see her sorry arse crumble.
