Most routes were temporarily closed because of the volcanic eruption in Iceland.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy&#8217;s heart skipped a beat. She ran to the information desk. The tired staff members were repeating the words &#8220;sorry&#8221;. She walked out of the crowd and saw that on the other side of the airport, the workers were moving cots in large numbers. She couldn&#8217;t even find a seat to sit on, so she sat on her suitcase and unlocked her phone.<\/p>\n<p>Many domestic news websites had reported that air traffic in Europe was at a standstill. Tens of thousands of tourists had been stranded at the airport, and the restoration of routes was further away than ever.<\/p>\n<p>The telephone line at the embassy was busy. The news on the Internet didn&#8217;t send out clear messages. Some said that within three days the flight will be restored, while others said that it would take at least half a month. Kathy stood up impatiently. She wanted to go to the bathroom and wash her face, but out of the corner of her eye she saw a piece of news scrolling.<\/p>\n<p>She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, but couldn&#8217;t help click on it.<\/p>\n<p>Was he in Europe too?<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was bewildered, and her brain was in chaos.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr Joseph, a leading neurologist, arrived in Europe three days ago and would participate in an international medical conference&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy was suddenly filled with a strange and distant sense of dependence. She was depressed and ashamed, but at this moment, she really missed the man who was capable of anything three years ago.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, I have to do something&#8230;&#8221; As if to dissipate her weakness, Kathy hurried out of the airport with her luggage.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps she could get there before the ash reached southern Europe and return home.<\/p>\n<p>Arriving at the station, however, it turned out that she was not the only one who thought so.<\/p>\n<p>There were crowds everywhere. It reminded people of the travel rush during major holidays.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy waited at the end of the line in despair until a kind tourist told her that all airports in other southern European countries were also closed and that she might as well stay here and wait.<\/p>\n<p>So Kathy had to go back to the airport and sit at the gate wearily. Karl called again and asked if she was on the plane. Kathy answered helplessly, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know when the flight will be restored.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The staff gave her water and bread, but she couldn&#8217;t eat either. She was on edge at the thought of Jennifer&#8217;s condition.<\/p>\n<p>As time went by, more and more people came to the airport, getting into a hopeless muddle.<\/p>\n<p>She knew very well that even if the weather suddenly cleared up, she would not be able to go on board immediately.<\/p>\n<p>She tried to calm down and think what to do.<\/p>\n<p>However, Kathy unconsciously opened the email app on her phone and typed her username and password.<\/p>\n<p>Unexpectedly, the login was successful.<\/p>\n<p>Kathy felt dizzy for a while. Soon she told herself she couldn&#8217;t think about it anymore. Maybe he never changed the password, or maybe he didn&#8217;t really care.<\/p>\n<p>And she must be strong!<\/p>\n<p>Then she closed the web page in no time and took a deep breath. She tried to call the embassy again and again.<\/p>\n<p>Near the harbor in Amsterdam, Joseph stood behind a French window, watching with indifference.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph had just returned from a party and took a short rest before John called.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr Joseph, someone has entered your itinerary mailbox.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There were only two people in this world who knew this password.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes.&#8221; He put down the glass. His eyes darkened.<\/p>\n<p>Dense clouds blotted out the light from the sky. Joseph&#8217;s place wasn&#8217;t easy to find. Kathy was a little weak on her feet when she got out of the taxi. After a full day and night in the airport, she had no appetite for food at all.<\/p>\n<p>Raising her head slightly, Kathy felt a chill on her lips.<\/p>\n<p>With her windbreaker wrapped around her and her head bowed, she stepped up to the closed black iron gate and rang the doorbell.<\/p>\n<p>Soon, someone politely answered the bell, &#8220;Hello, may I help you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kathy explained her reason for the visit in a simple way. And then the man paused and replied politely, &#8220;Mr Joseph is resting now. I&#8217;m sorry. No one is allowed to disturb him while he is resting. You can come back later. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, Kathy didn&#8217;t know what she was thinking. Maybe she was relieved that Joseph was really here, or maybe&#8230; she felt very embarrassed.<\/p>\n<p>They clearly had nothing to do with each other, but she still came here to beg him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then I&#8217;ll wait here.&#8221; She said tonelessly.<\/p>\n<p>The man didn&#8217;t even mention letting her in and cut off the communication.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr Joseph, it&#8217;s raining outside.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When the butler reminded him, Joseph just raised his eyes slightly. His face was pale as he looked out at the weather.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The news said that ash mixed with rain is very harmful.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Joseph frowned and glanced at the energetic white-haired butler.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I mean, the lady outside doesn&#8217;t seem to have an umbrella.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1274","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1274","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1274"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
