Dragon Air QZ507F.
Departed from Beijing at 18.00.
Now flew above South Sea of China.
Headed to Hongkong International Airport.
I sit at my chair, 21 A.
Window seat was always be my favorite and so I cherished this tho.
It was quite an easy night, the giant iron bird flew calmly like he, too, enjoyed the flight on the last day of 2015.
My brother seat on his chair, 21 B.
Hence I looked like never paid attention to things he said (boeing something or airbus or how the planes should land and things like that), never in single moment I thought he talked nonsense. He really did the read tho, about how planes were made and watch that tv show on National Geographic (his favorite) that aired airplane crash investigation and something like that.
It was just when he started to said something about the greatness of Garuda Indonesia that not every Indonesian realiazed, an announcement sounded along the alley.
"Dear passengers, we're now having a medical emergency situation. Please, if anybody was a doctor or medics, tell our cabin crew."
Not long after, a beautiful flight attendants came to our front seat and said, "Excuse me, sir, perharps you are a doctor?"
It seems like the man she was asked gave a negative answer as she rush passed our seat to again asked the couples three seats behind me the same question.

I kept saying to my self not to forget this very moment, about the horror looks on the flight attendants, whispers swirled on the cabin as the passengers talked in worried tone, and that releived feelings when a man, six seats behind me, whom stood up from his seat while took off his headphones said "I'm a doctor. What's the case?" Then headed front with the not-too-worry-faced-anymore flight attendant. I caught some of their talks when they walked passed my seats, "Did he board alone or is there any family members?" Unfortunately they walked fast enough for me not to heard any of the topics anymore.
There was still some hustles on the cabin when the doctor and the filght attendants entered the front part of the plane (bussiness class). But as the night got late, it slowly got quite.
We, my brother and I, discussed about what might happenned and although we didn't said it loud, I know he too thought this was both horrific (disease is no joke) and exciting (like one of the case in that novel).

As the night got late, and my brother fell asleep on his seat, I got drawn in deep thoughts about all the things which just happened. I now knew the answer of the quetions that been in my mind these past few months.
22.00
Hongkong International Airport.
Looked out the window I can see the blue and red light of the ambulance parked near the airplane's door. Some medics brang out a sickbed in hurry and cops stood nearby.
It was that final moment, when a decision was made by, doubts had gone, and a dream was made to actualized.
It was that night when I know I have to be a doctor.
