~*~The Airplane~*~

        This one was told to me by my cousin. This happened to his friend.

        She worked as a flight attn. The flight she was on was a international flight from the US to HK. Everything was normal as she walks up and down the aisle checking up on the passengers' needs. There was the normal pillow or drink requests. Then as she was nearing the end of the last cabin she heard a coughing which was distressful, so she went to check what was happening. She then saw and aproached an old lady that seems to be very uncomforatable and coughing a lot. everyone around the old women was concerned and offered to help. The flight attn. went over and asked if she can help her in anyway.

        The old lady asked the attn. if she would to fetch her husband up in first cabin. The attn agreed and wrote doen the seat number that the husband was siting. The attn. asked if she needed any water or medication, the old lady replied that she would be fine and that her husband will take care of her.

        The attn then quickly went to the seat indicated by the lady and found a man siting there. The attn asked told the man about the lady and her need of help. The man then just looked at the attn. in awe, then dazed and confused. Then he asked her to check and make sure she got the right seat number. At this point the attn was very concerned for the lady so she hurreied back and found the lady still there coughing. The passengers near her tried to help her relax awaiting for the attn to return.

        The Attn asked the lady for a verification of the seat number and was told that it was correct. Then she rushed back to the man. The attn. told the man that the old lady insisted that she was his wife and that she wants him to come see her.

        At this time the man grew quite and a certian palness came to his face. He told calmly told her how that women can't be his wife. He said that it is true that his wife is onboard but not in the last cabin. She was riding in the baggage area because she died of sickness and he was transporting her to be buried. This frightened the attn. as she fly back tot he last cabin and could not find the old lady. She asked the passengers that was around the seat where the lady sat. They saw the lady walk to the next cabin toward the rear.

        This disturbed the attn a lot and she was wide eyed with fright. Because she knew that this was the last cabin and there is no more passenger seating after this cabin.....
