Midgard

Blue Sky Mine

I’m late for the meeting.

This isn’t by design, not this time. Not when, five hours ago, Melbourne was living up to its reputation as a miserable, cold, storm-wracked shithole, and not all the money in the fucking world can buy a ticket out past the weather.

That was Melbourne, this is Perth.

“Welcome, Mr. Hale. Come through, please.”

There’s no sign on the door, no arrows dangling from the ceiling to point weary travelers into this particular airport lounge. People who need to be here know the door, the most exclusive airline club you never really wanted to join.

I don’t even need a card, the woman at the desk knows me when I walk in. The perks of being famous.

I’m already late, so figure a detour past the bar isn’t going to kill anyone. Pick myself up a too-full glass of red, a GSM from the Hunter that isn’t half bad, if only for the way it feels like a lifeline back to the east. Back to home.

Travelling’s not really my thing, not any more. If I can make the red-eye out tonight I won’t be complaining.

There’s only one other person in the lounge, the woman I’m here to meet. She watches me as I approach, picking olives off a tiny plate, sucking the flesh and spitting the pits back out with tlick, tlick, tlick sounds I can hear across the room.

When I sit down across from her, she doesn’t smile.
