Bradley hadn't seen his brother for a few years, not since they flew to visit last year. He had promised them for months to come visit but kept putting it off due to the cost of air travel, though that was just an excuse as he disliked flying. But when there was a massive sale on during a time his work was quite slow it didn't leave him with much of an excuse so he begrudgingly booked a flight.
