The Flight Home

The Flight Home

         The week was over and the class had gone very well.

         Now, Jacob was flying home. Empty seats abounded. He had a row to himself and lay down to rest.

         Severe turbulence was encountered. Still Jacob slept. The plane shook violently as waves hit it, moving it side to side. Jacob bounced into the air, his neck landed on the arm rest. A soft crack was heard. He bounced again from the severe turbulence, this time landing where he started. As the plane prepared to land, flight attendants noticed that Jacob hadn’t moved. One attendant noticed he wasn’t breathing and screamed.
