Chapter 74

I sigh.

"Ryder, wake up!"

I smack him in the face, startling him. He jumps and looks around, confused for a second. When he looks at me, I notice his eyes are bloodshot red, and tears threaten to fall from them.

"I hadn't noticed I fell asleep! I'm sorry!" Ryder rakes his hair and sits up quickly, trying to compose himself. He opens his laptop and begins staring at the screen, rubbing his eyes frantically!

I sit back as the flight attendant comes with my plate and a cup of wine. She asks Ryder if he's hungry. He nods.

White rice, parmesan chicken, and a mixture of vegetables. My mouth waters as I look at my plate, but then I decide not to eat it.

My parents are all I can think about at this moment. The attendant appears with Ryder's plate and his glass of wine.

"LeAnn, may I have a cup of water, please?" Ryder asks, clearing his throat uncomfortably.

She turns and smiles. "Sure thing, Mr. Forñay!"

Oh, I tell myself. That's the attendant's name!
