Three days later, I boarded a plane to Munich. The funeral was tomorrow, but I was going a day early. I had canceled one flight scheduled for this week and taken a few days off. Although I hated lying, I made up a story about a relative passing away. If it's not an immediate family matter, it's difficult to cancel consecutive scheduled flights and take extended leave. This was the best I could do. Before I left, I received a call from Han Jae-yi. His voice over the phone was calm and quiet. Without…-

When I woke from the nightmare, Han Jae-yi was already gone from my side. It was morning. I was drenched in sweat and had a dry cough from the burning thirst. I went into the bathroom and washed my face with cold water. By now, more than half of the dream's content had evaporated and I couldn't remember it. Yet my body felt oppressed and stuffy. It was that kind of feeling. That feeling when the source of fear is gone, but you're still trembling in fear alone. To gather my wits, I became aware of…-

Finally, by the time evening came, we were able to return to Gimpo Airport. All flights at Beijing Airport, including other airplanes that hadn't yet received takeoff orders, were canceled that day. Breaking news appeared, and video clips taken by people at the scene were spread on the internet. "CR851, returning the Beijing turn-around flight chart." "Oh, you came right away?" "My goodness. You've been through a lot." "Did you see the accident scene directly?" Many colleagues I encountered…-

"Shall we open the door? ...Captain?" I gathered my scattered thoughts from yesterday and composed my dazed expression. "Ah, yes. Sorry. Let's open it." The co-pilot spoke first when I remained silent for a long time after receiving the report that the cabin cleaning was finished. We had finished our morning flight in Beijing and were in the midst of preparing for takeoff to return on a turnaround. My condition was the worst, but I tried not to show it. So I emptied my head once again. If I…-

"Wait. Is it over after you've said your piece? I don't know what kind of misunderstanding you have, but it's all wrong. Everything from start to finish." Han Jae-yi turned and looked at me. Then he glanced at my hand holding his arm. He didn't move anymore, as if willing to be held. So I held him even tighter. Don't shake me off, listen to me. At this point, we had to dig to the deepest place. And we had to uproot this discord. "I don't understand why we have to be like this. We say we understand…-

During the one day stay in Hanoi, I finished reading a book. I read the book and took a nap lying on a beach bed by the outdoor pool under the warm autumn sun. I ended the day quietly as if I had gone on a peaceful vacation. Suddenly, I realized that I hadn't smoked for quite a long time. On the return flight, Co-pilot Jeon Seong-wook gave me some advice. He said couples can fight as much as they want, but if they don't properly reconcile, the mileage of fights accumulates. When the residue of…-

After that day, a slight distance grew between us. We ate together and slept in the same bed, but we spoke as little as possible except when necessary. There were many times when an awkward silence flowed. Unable to stay by his side like this, I had to fly again today for a 3-day schedule. "Hello. I'm Schmitz, the captain of CR711 flight to Hanoi today. There's nothing special, so let's start the flight briefing right away. Co-pilot." "Ah, yes." At the gathering where everyone had assembled for…-

On my way home after the Moscow flight, I tried calling Han Jae-yi, but he didn't answer. It had been several days since we last talked. Perhaps things weren't going well locally, as he couldn't immediately call back despite my accumulating missed calls. I could only confirm he was alive through the occasional messages I received. I picked up my phone again during a brief moment of signal. I sent a message using an embarrassingly affectionate expression to try and get Han Jae-yi's attention. But…-

On a weekend when we both happened to have a day off after a long time, we couldn't get up until late. The air getting colder day by day made us feel the change of seasons, and the endless physical exhaustion reminded us of last night's lovemaking. Recently, our sex had been persistent and sadistic. As if trying to fill the gaps created by consecutive confrontations and anxieties, we obsessed over each other's bodies more intensely and passionately, without either of us initiating it. It truly was an…-

Two days later, I was taking off on CR713 bound for Moscow. The co-pilot sitting next to me was a veteran who had already flown with me a couple of times. The old A380, over 15 years since its production, entered the taxiway with its massive body. The scheduled departure time was 9:10 AM. We were set for a 9-hour flight with 350 passengers and over 10 tons of cargo. We received information that turbulence and lightning were expected at various points along the route to our destination. The cabin…-
