Chapter 2:

At the airport

Best Man


[2] At the airport


Actually after I heard that sound, all the people were "loaded" on a very particular bus, it was very high and it was completely black and since it had no windows I couldn't understand how many floors it had and so I was forced to get on and I realized that it had 4 floors and each floor contained about 80-90 people.I did a quick count and realized that it could hold about 320-360 people and there were enough of these strange buses to fill a racetrack.After a few minutes that we were sitting on these comfortable seats came 2 people who were dressed as the guards but with yellow pants almost green, they told each of us passing by each person that for the entire emergency trip we could not get up and that if someone had gotten up they would have had to stop him at any cost.I, being a very curious person, asked them for an explanation of all this, but I had no answer. On the contrary, the 2 people in charge remained still and impassive to my questions, continuing to stand in front of the bus exit.After a few seconds the bus left and I began to get bored and try to understand something; after a few .... but really how long has it been? I could not understand how long I was sitting there and I grabbed my iTon 19 (a phone) to check the time and I remembered that before I got on the bus I was told by one of the passengers that for "safety" since you get on that bus all electronic and neutronic objects (a technology arrived in 2054) will be temporarily deactivated thanks to the NEMP structure of the bus.I asked the passenger the reason and he told me that he was only required to know that it was for public safety.From that moment I realized that 100% there was something secret that the government was trying to hide in every possible way and I could not not know everything.


AFTER A WHILE...


While I was thinking about various theories about what was going on I heard the bus stop for I think a few minutes and then after a few more minutes (I don't know how many) they let us all off and we were in an airport.At that moment my questions about everything increased (for example: "Where are we?"), but fortunately at least one answer I managed to get, that is, the phone turned on and told me the time when I turned it on and revealed that it was 13:15 in New York. I remembered that when we left NY I picked up the phone to tell the time and it was 1:10pm, so the whole trip had only taken 5 minutes, yet in there it seemed like 1 or 2 hours had passed and from there came other questions that I didn't know how to answer and first I tried to figure out where I was and at that moment I started to go inside the airport and reading a sign I finally understood where I was; I was .... in the place where I would have least expected to find myself .... I was in Italy, precisely at Milan airport.After the revelation, on one hand I felt very restless, not because I had arrived in an Italian airport by bus in 5 minutes from NY, but because I was in Italy, my country.Then I thought that if I had told the news of the radiation "RadiT" to a foreigner outside of New York, something would have happened for sure that would have prevented me from telling since all the people who knew about it were terrified by the idea of talking about it. At that moment a girl passed by I think about 20 years old that didn't seem to me to be from NY and I told her the news, at that moment I was very afraid because I didn't know what could happen to me and after a few moments nothing happened at all, my anxiety began to decrease and I looked around waiting for the girl's answer and she answered me saying :


[Girl]: "And how come nobody knows the news but you were able to tell me?".


[Me]: "Um...I thought something was going to happen to me in telling but nothing happened that I expected."


Girl]: "Ahaha you're a little strange, you know, if you have to say certain things to a stranger try to be more convincing".


At that moment I was a bit perplexed, but not only because she didn't believe me, but also because she was the first person to consider me strange.Then I asked her:


[Me]: "What's your name?"


[Girl]: "My name is Alessia and you?".


[Me]: "Ok Alessia now I will show you a proof that what I say is true".


I took the phone and showed her a photo taken in New York today at 13:04 , and the moment I showed her was at 13:23 in NY.Alessia]: "Wait let me calculate...You're right! You really got here after only 5 minutes and then I think that the story of the radiation and the bus are true too!She began to get a little white in the face for what she had just seen and said:[Alessia]: "Now I need to sit down because I don't feel too good, I still have to realize this absurd thing...".


I helped her and then after several minutes we started to talk about various things and theories regarding the news and she told me:


[Alessia]: "I'm sorry but I really have to go home now, I live in Milan if you want to exchange numbers and meet me another day to talk about it ok?".


[I]: "Ok well now actually I have to go home too, so see you next time and please don't tell anyone just in case."


[Alessia]: "Ok, but how do I save you on the phone?


The answer didn't come, as I had already run away.After we said goodbye I wondered if the consequences of what I did would ever come in time, but immediately after I let out a sigh and relaxed a bit thinking positively.It was now 23:00 and I was too tired, having in my head all those questions I needed a place where I could reflect calmly and think about all my questions trying to understand something and maybe even be able to answer some questions on my own.Being at the Milan airport I was very close to my home, since I actually live in Milan.On the way back I got a message on Thatsapp from my girlfriend in response to my previous message telling her that I just got back because I was bored (I couldn't tell her the story right away, I had to solve it first to avoid getting her into trouble). Towards almost midnight I arrived in front of my house and as soon as I got out of the cab I paid the driver and noticed something strange near the window of the room where I usually sleep and my girlfriend, then I approached the building to see better what it was and what I saw was .... blood.
