Flight Attendant Sees Her Father On The Plane – What She Discovers Next Leaves Her Reeling!
Her mind screamed that it couldn’t be him. Her heart screamed that it was.
A sudden shout shattered the moment.
“WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!” The man’s voice was sharp, cutting. “ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!”
Natalie flinched, stunned. Her father had never raised his voice at her.
“CAN’T YOU SEE THERE’S SOMEONE SEATED HERE?!” he barked, his face twisted in anger.
Her eyes blurred with tears. She barely noticed the hand on her shoulder until a voice broke in.
“My apologies on behalf of my colleague,” said Cassandra, another attendant, with a tight smile for the man before turning a stern look on Natalie.
The cabin came back into focus—passengers staring, Cassandra’s disapproval, coffee pooling on the floor. Humiliation burned hot in her chest. She didn’t know what to think, what to feel—only that she had to get away before she completely unraveled.
Natalie squeezed past the passengers, forcing herself down the narrow aisle without a word. She didn’t stop until she reached the galley, where the hum of the equipment and the muted clink of utensils gave her a moment’s cover to breathe.
The calm didn’t last. Cassandra’s voice sliced through the air, sharp and loud.
“What was that?!” she demanded, eyes blazing.
Natalie flinched under the glare.
“This is why I told you not to come back to work so soon,” Cassandra continued, her tone firm but edged with genuine concern. “You need rest. You’re not ready.”
The truth in those words clawed at Natalie’s thoughts. She had been warned—warned that returning to work this soon after her father’s death was a mistake. But she had refused to listen.
