Flying, it was all I had ever dreamed of, ever since I was a child. I wanted to defy the confines of gravity and explore the skies. I wanted to be a pilot. My childhood days were spent staring at pictures of airplanes, reading books on aviation, the few that existed at the time. By the age of ten, I knew every inch of ever type of aircraft know to mankind. It was not long before I found out that a person of my gender couldn't be a pilot. At least, that's what they all told me. I was crushed, all my dreams, torn apart. Soon enough, I got over it though and discovered a new career path, the stewardess. Now it wasn't exactly the same as being a pilot, it wasn't all that I had hoped for in life but still, I got to fly on an airplane and get paid for it. Thanks to a family connection I was able to land a job with Trans World Airlines, or TWA, right out of high school. Not only that but I was able to get a job on one of the new clipper crews. I got to travel around the world and it was highly enjoyable but still, I wanted something more...
AN: It's short and this is going to seem pretty irrelevant for the first little while in the story but trust me, it'll make sense later. I also wanted to give people a sense of the character's mindset (if that makes any sense).
