It's the night before TFMU so I'm giving you some time appropriate content. Sadly, Ward the Whipper will not be at DIA with me tomorrow.

Apt 7F

I finished at the airport kiosk and dropped my bags off, knowing security at DIA took forever. I moved through the line only to feel a tap on my shoulder.

"Excuse me, are you Ward the Whipper on TikTok?"

"I am," I answered, looking at the young blonde behind me.

"Can I get a picture with you?"

"I'm not sure security would be cool with that so close to the checkpoint, but once we get through, I'll pose for one."

Her whole face lit up. "Thanks! My friends will be so jealous. We watch all your TikToks. I wish I could see you perform live."

"I'll be back in Larkspur in three weeks if you're from here. Otherwise, the schedule is pinned on my profile."

"I'll have to check it out."

We made our way through the metal detectors and I picked up my bags, noticing that the girl was waiting for hers to come through the machine. I stood around for a moment. She kept turning back like I'd bolt. Finally, it came out. She grabbed it and jogged over, still shoving her tablet back into it.

"Thanks for waiting."

"No problem, what's your name?"

"Jessica."

"Nice to meet you, Jessica."

She took out her phone and snapped a few selfies. Then, we descended towards the train to the terminals. When the train stopped at Terminal A, she waved and exited and I did the same. Happy for an uneventful moment with one of my followers.
