Nina sat by the window. Through the glass, she saw the tarmac outside. It was much smaller than the one at Birkham Airport, with narrow white lines painted on the concrete and only a simple wire fence surrounding it.
The plane landed abruptly, without the usual gradual descent. The sudden drop made Nina's stomach lurch, and a strong wave of nausea hit her. She couldn't hold it back and began to retch.
Scarlett, sitting beside her, immediately straightened up and placed a hand on Nina's shoulder. "Nina, just hold on for a bit. It will pass soon."
Scarlett had been through professional training. She had once grabbed a helicopter's hanging ladder with one hand, swinging up and down in the air, which was far more thrilling than this.
Scarlett was unfazed and even tried to comfort Nina. "We're in first class, so we'll get off the plane soon."
"Okay," Nina panted, feeling awful but managing to endure it.
Despite being in first class and getting off the plane first, there was no jet bridge. They had to walk down the stairs and across the tarmac.
This place wasn't even a third the size of Birkham Airport. It wasn't even as big as Birkham University's basketball court. The grass was littered with plastic waste, and a gust of wind blew sand into Nina's eyes.
Scarlett held Nina's hand. "I'll get the luggage. You find a place to sit and wait for me. We'll need to find a translator to help us get to Yaren."
Without someone who spoke the local language, they wouldn't get far.
"Alright," Nina agreed without hesitation.
Retrieving luggage here wasn't like in their home country where it came on a conveyor belt. Here, they had to collect it from the counter manually. Fortunately, they didn't have much, just one small suitcase each.
Scarlett returned with their luggage. "How are you feeling? If you're still queasy, I'll get you something to drink."
Nina shook her head. This place barely qualified as an airport. It was worse than a remote bus station back home, with rusted signs and creaky chairs.
