"I just wanted to tell you that we should probably get ready to leave for the flight at five o’clock." Xander sounded somewhat wronged.
"Five o'clock?" Heidi had told me that we were going o n the trip today but I forgot to ask her the specific time.
I quickly got up. It would take half an hour to get to the airport from here. I might be late if I did not hurry.
"You should go and wash up first. I'll come and pick you up." Xander immediately hung up the phone after saying those words as though he was afraid of being scolded by me again.
My head was dizzy and I felt very uncomfortable. However, I still forced myself to get out of bed and wash up.
I finished packing in no time and went out. Xander was already waiting outside the door.
We drove all the way to the airport. Thankfully, we were not late. However, as I did not have enough sleep, I felt extremely uncomfortable and dry-heaved for a long time before I finally felt a little better.
"Where are the rest?" When we were about to get on board, I realized that there were only two of us.
"They will board the plane at night." "Are you out of your mind? Why did you wake me up s o early, then?" I was already in a bad mood because I did not have enough sleep and the current situation only made it worse.
"I was hoping to go over earlier to familiarize myself with the location and discuss shooting ideas with you. I know you haven't slept well, so you can rest once we board the plane later. You're an adult now. I can't believe you're still so irritable in the morning." Xander dragged my luggage and pushed me forward.
I knew that he was only giving excuses. Discuss shooting ideas, my foot! That was the director's job. However, since I was already here and about to board the plane, there was no way I would just go home like this.
I pulled a long face without a word.
After boarding the plane, I asked the cabin crew for a blanket and continued to sleep. Xander was in high spirits. He put on a pair of headphones and began watching movies.
When the plane landed, Xander nudged me awake and urged. "Let's go. We can continue to sleep after we reach the hotel."
The way he said it sounded really strange.
Without thinking much about it, I followed Xander dazedly and walked out of the airport. The car he rented in advance was already waiting outside. It took us straight to the hotel by the beach.
