I would be lying if I say I am not nervous at my mother’s second attempt of leaving the country today. A few hours from now, she will be boarding a flight bound to Dubai, thanks to a friend who whipped up a miracle for us yesterday. I am terrified, nervous and restless. I jerk everytime the phone rings thinking it will be my mom’s call of distress (again).
If everything turns out right, she will be landing in Dubai International Airport at 10:30 p.m. today. Wish her luck!!
I arrived at the office before 8 am today because I will be going home in a couple of hours. The 38C fever I have since last night is slowing me down, all joints in my body aching. If I didn’t have reports to submit today, a needed bedrest would have been wonderful.

I hope you feel better and I hope your mom makes it okay this time!
Poor you. Hopefully by now your mom is there
Hope you well
Your nervousness is as serious as mine. With the information of Alainboy that your mom has already entered the airport I felt so thrilled of what will happen during those uncertain moments. I was so overwhelmed the time I received a text message from her that she was already at the predeparture area. I uttered to myself YES!, my wife and daughter ultimately became victorious against the unscrupulous people at the airport victimizing many travellers. Kudos to both of you.
