Brenda’s Sarcastic Remark
Without missing a beat, Brenda chimed in with exaggerated cheer, “Well, maybe we should grab some snacks as compensation for this!” Her sarcastic tone rippled through the cabin, drawing raised eyebrows from those around us. Her nonchalance was startling, especially given the palpable tension in the air. I couldn’t help but wonder—could snacks really fix this mess? Somehow, the thought seemed absurd, yet her lack of empathy was even more grating. Taking a deep breath, I resolved to keep my composure.

I took a deep breath, my hand hesitating over my phone. The thought of recording Brenda’s outrageous behavior crossed my mind—proof might be useful later. But I stopped. Wouldn’t that only escalate things further? A gentle poke in my side pulled me from my thoughts. “Mommy, look! Drawing!” Jacob beamed, holding up his crayon masterpiece with pride. I couldn’t help but smile, warmth spreading through me. Amidst the chaos swirling around us, his little world remained untouched—filled with colors, creativity, and a peaceful innocence.
