When the concert ended and the cheers of the fans still echoed in the arena, Alejandro hurried offstage and, without pausing at the dressing room, hurried over to Amanda.

“¿Listo, Princesa?”

Two security guards and Geoffrey approached them, Geoffrey gesturing to the corridor. They wasted no time exiting the arena before the entrance reserved for the crew and talent became a mob scene. Outside there was a car ready to take them to the Birmingham airport, where a private plane waited to take them back to the United States. They would fly to Chicago to refuel and then continue their flight. It would be a long night, over fifteen hours of travel. By the time they arrived in Los Angeles, it would be six in the morning.

Amanda tried to figure it out on a piece of paper as they sat in the plane on the tarmac. How was it possible to leave Birmingham, England, at 11:30 p.m. on Saturday, travel for fifteen hours, and arrive in Los Angeles at . . . six in the morning?

Alejandro laughed as she scribbled out her numbers and tried to figure it out once again.

The flight attendant handed him a drink, and he took a long sip. “You forget the time changes, sí?” he said, pointing to her numbers.

“Oh, bother!” She pushed the piece of paper away. “And I thought we had it rough growing up with fast time and slow time!”

He raised an eyebrow, silently questioning her.

“Amish don’t follow the Englischers’ daylight savings time. So we go to church an hour earlier during fast time, at least if you consider the time change.”

Shaking his head, he took another sip of his drink. “Sounds confusing.”

“It was, ja.”

Just before the door to the plane was about to shut, Carlos hurried on board, followed by Paolo, Andres, and Eddie. The men nodded to Amanda, and as they passed by Alejandro, each slapped his raised hand. Carlos made a comment in Spanish, and Alejandro laughed before the four men took their seats toward the back of the plane. While Amanda wasn’t surprised that Eddie and Andres joined Alejandro on the private plane, she was curious about Paolo and Carlos. Most of the other members of his team had other travel arrangements; however, since she had met them in Miami before the South American tour, they seemed to be regulars in Alejandro’s inner circle.

Giving up on trying to figure out the time differences, Amanda shoved aside her notepad. After buckling her seat belt, she stared out the window at the darkness that engulfed them. In the distance, she could see the city lights and realized that by the time they arrived in Los Angeles, the people of Birmingham would be enjoying their Sunday off, the concert just a fading memory for most of those who had attended.

After the plane took off and the pilot reached cruising altitude, Alejandro unfastened his seat belt and stood up. He stretched before walking down the aisle and sitting on the sofa in the center of the plane.
