Since her flight left from Terminal D, we stayed nearby. Conversation-wise, we strayed from religions to politics. While we certainly had our differences in opinions, we also agreed on several subjects. I will leave out our subjects since readers may find themselves triggered for no other reason but that someone disagrees with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>While we talked, we looked around the terminal. We visited a couple of shops but mostly looked since the prices were quite high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/nejstudio\/image\/upload\/v1577576020\/IMG-20191210-WA0003_c8nmwc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"475\" height=\"548\"\/><figcaption>Restaurant sign<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/nejstudio\/image\/upload\/v1577544266\/IMG-20191210-WA0000_qlxm6y.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>I forgot what this was<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/nejstudio\/image\/upload\/v1577544170\/IMG-20191210-WA0002_pudz3e.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"387\" height=\"745\"\/><figcaption>An expensive shop<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Eventually, the woman left for her flight, which left me alone. Since I&#8217;ve never been out of the country before, let alone out of the country by myself, you can imagine that sinking feeling in my stomach. I decided the best thing I could do was head towards my terminal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It took about twenty minutes, but I finally arrived at the gate for my flight. So I sat down and waited. Hours went by, a few people started to show up. I headed toward the bathroom.
