Behind that little face

Posted by Chan chue lydia kha


A petite lady, not more than 4 foot. Smoke between fingers, beer on the other.
What can it come of it?

Wit, courage, guts. She has it all.



A little girl, well protected by the family. A proper smile, a tiny bow.
What does the future holds?

Uncertainty. Well kept purity.



She was never allowed to see sadness. Her first funeral was at the age of 26. Born and brought up in a rich family. One would have thought that she would end up to become a lady. A demure lady, a subservient wife perhaps. Her mother would have loved that.


First trip down to Aus, and never looked back. Earning her first million at the age of 36. Money was not a worry. In fact, it was abundance. Business has always been her playground. Daddy would have been so proud of her.

A tiny calling, a small interest. She took up flying. 48 hours training, and took off to take 8 exams. Taking her first solo flight. Jetting through the air, the adrenaline rush.
Courage.
~She's got it~

Curious, fame. Whichever takes precedence, it doesn't matter. Her sail caught in the current. 2 days of travelling on a horizontal sail. It doesn't deter her to bring it to her destination.
Determination.
~She's got it~

Flying through the air. Caught in a sea of clouds. Zero visibility. Emergency landing. It was either a Cherokee 235 or a Cessna 182. Football field was her only bet.
Craziness.
~ She's got it too~




Can u do it?
