The plane touched down a few minutes later. After the plane had come to a complete stop, Sheryl took her laptop from the hand luggage compartment and proceeded to the exit. She walked through the tunnel and went to the baggage section of the terminal to collect her bags. When she had gotten all of them, she pushed her trolley to the exit. Once outside, she looked around for a taxi.
Seth removed his dark glasses and put them in his coat pocket. He slowly walked towards Sheryl and stopped in front of her and smiled.
“Taxi?” he asked in his deep scratchy voice.
Sheryl looked up at him and analyzed him for a few moments. He was tall and quite thin. His oval face outlined by his scruffy blond bleached hair. His eyes were icy blue and he had a bump on his nose that Sheryl guessed had resulted from him breaking his nose quite a few times. His lips were thin and at that moment were twisted into a smile. He hadn’t shaved in a day or two because his beard was sticking out.
“Kingston Academy?” she answered his question with another.
“Of course, it’s a fifteen minute drive” he told her.
“Did you say Kingston Academy?” the red head standing a few feet from Sheryl asked.
“Yes” Sheryl replied.
