Sera Kiryu woke up. It was only natural; all this running around would be enough to disrupt anyone’s biorhythms.

The young gamer let out a long yawn, then tried the personal TV and the reading light. Neither would turn on; the window was also closed. This was all likely to let people sleep, but it meant that those who happened to wake up then would be forced to suffer in boredom.

Everyone around seemed to be sleeping, too, which extinguished even Sera’s hopes for pulling out a portable game system. Then Sera glanced at the next seat over and noticed that Ichiro Tsuwabuki wasn’t there.

Where could he have gone? Deciding it might be quicker to ask, Sera pressed the call button. Immediately, a voice sounded out from above.

“How may I help you?” It was impressive that a flight attendant could respond so quickly in this darkness.

First-class service is amazing! Sera thought, but the young gamer’s spoken response came out as a stammer, the result of innate social awkwardness. “Ah, r-right. Um, the old ma— er, young man, sitting next to me...”

“Mr. Tsuwabuki is currently at the bar.”

“Bar? There’s a place to drink alcohol? Here on a plane?”

“We offer soft drinks as well as alcohol. It’s only accessible to first class and business class customers.”

Sera blinked. The Kiryu patriarch worked at a company overseas, and their family was wealthy enough to own a home in Nagoya, but they were still solidly middle class. To Sera, the very concept seemed absolutely pie-in-the-sky... but of course, they were currently in the sky...

Sera’s father was an eccentric sort who had declared that he loved nothing more than to watch his wife and child playing games. As a result, he had spent a lot of money on arcade game cabinets and tons of brand-new software, all of which seemed to Sera to be a waste of money. But when he did occasionally come back from his business trips, he’d sit in the living room, watching rapturously as the two of them fought their white-knuckle game battles... so maybe, Sera thought, it wasn’t so bad.

Now, back to the subject at hand.

“Could you take me to it?” Sera asked.

“Certainly.”

When they got back from America and took their trip to visit Sera’s father in Italy, it would probably be in economy class. It might be worth enjoying these first class perks while there was still a chance.

“Where are we now?” Sera asked.

“We’re over the Pacific Ocean, at a height of 39,000 feet, currently on schedule. It’s just after 1 A.M. on August 4th Japan time, and we’re scheduled to arrive at Chicago O’Hare airport in about six and a half hours.”

Sera followed after the flight attendant, letting out another big yawn. She eventually led Sera to the bar counter, a compact space that nevertheless had a nice atmosphere.

After informing Sera that the first drink was on the house for those who had slept through the initial welcome drink, the attendant handed over a customs form and said, “Please, fill this out.
