Not listening to her.
Cora, driven by desperation, resorted to another drastic measure, presenting her passport as additional proof of her identity to support her claim. “If you check the system, you’ll see that this seat is assigned to me!” she pleaded, her voice quivering with both frustration and anxiety. She extended her passport toward the flight attendant, hoping for a swift verification to validate her assertion.
However, the flight attendant’s response lacked empathy. Dismissive and arrogant, she declined Cora’s offer, dismissing it with a casual remark.
“Do you even realize how much time that would consume?” she countered, her tone dripping with condescension. “You must leave immediately.”
Cora found herself ensnared in an unjust predicament, where reason and logic appeared to hold no sway, and her window of opportunity to salvage her journey was rapidly closing. The ordeal had exacted an emotional toll on her, leaving her feeling powerless and frustrated as she struggled to comprehend the bewildering situation before her.
