It started with a mistake.

Flight 812 to Edinburgh, seat 17A.

Amelia had just settled in, hoodie up, eyes half-closed, ready to zone out for the next hour.

She reached into the seat pocket and pulled out the airline’s headset—or so she thought.

It was already plugged in.Curious, she put it on.

Instead of classical music or in-flight announcements,a voice spoke through one ear:

Amelia blinked, surprised.

It wasn’t a flight attendant.It sounded like… a recording?But it was personal, funny, oddly timed.

The voice continued:

She smiled.Somehow, her heart relaxed with the ascent.

Over the next forty-five minutes,the voice shared stories:a train missed in Lisbon,a best friend left behind in Tokyo,a love letter never sent.

Each tale soft and honest,told like they were meant just for her.

When the plane began to descend, the voice said:

The seat beside her was empty the whole flight.

But Amelia reached into her bag,tore out a page from her journal,and wrote:

She tucked it into the seat pocket of 17B.

And six months later, on a different flight—same route, different day—she opened the seat pocket in 17A.

Inside, a note.

一切,始於一次小小的誤會。

飛往愛丁堡的812航班,座位17A。

阿米莉亞剛坐好,戴上連帽衫,半閉着眼,準備進入“斷線模式”。

她從前座椅袋裡抽出耳機——或者她以爲是那樣。

耳機已經插好了。她戴上它。

耳邊不是音樂,不是安全提示,而是一個聲音:

阿米莉亞愣住了。

那不是空乘的聲音。更像是一段私人的錄音。語氣幽默、貼心,彷彿恰好在對她說話。

聲音繼續道:

她笑了,心,也隨飛機一起緩緩升起。

在接下來的四十五分鐘裡,聲音講述了幾個故事:

——里斯本誤過的火車,——東京離別的好友,——一封未寄出的情書。

每一個都溫柔、誠懇,就像只講給她聽的一樣。

飛機開始下降時,聲音說:

她身邊的17B座位,全程空着。

但阿米莉亞從包裡拿出筆,撕下一頁日記紙,寫下:

她把它悄悄塞進17B的座椅袋。

六個月後,同一航線,不同日子。

她再次坐上17A,打開座椅袋,發現一張字條:
