Abstract:
This project is a short novelette told from the points of view of several different characters. The story is set in an airport and follows these characters as they wait for their flight to arrive. Each of the characters is observing the others, much like people do everyday without realizing it. Their personalities and histories are built throughout the story through their thought processes and the memories they have that are triggered by the observations they make, thus removing the reader from the airport setting occasionally to scenes that take place throughout the characters’ lives. This story is intended to allow any reader to relate with one or more of the characters. Some themes that are presented throughout the story are that of observation and the process of relationships.
