The Airport and the Prospect of Having Private Jets

December 30th, 2026.

At the Manila International Airport. 

The announcement of Michael Reyes receiving a Nobel Prize in London had been all over the news, and his scheduled flight was drawing attention from the media and public alike.

The airport was crowded, but security was tight. A team of private bodyguards kept watch as Michael's entourage made their way through the terminal. Journalists and curious onlookers were gathered near the check-in area, cameras flashing as they tried to catch a glimpse of the man of the hour.

Michael Reyes walked through the terminal, his tailored suit and calm demeanor distinguishing him from the throng of travelers. He offered polite nods to those who recognized him but maintained a brisk pace, not slowing for the cameras or questions. Following behind him were Bridget, Antoneitte, Juliet, Myra, and John Carter.
