doha - co-incident?

T3 had become busier and busier. There, he saw a bunch of slim africans checking in the same flight as his. All of them were in track suits, looking very sporting. He saw them soemwhere, before..... It was the singapore marathon. They were the african runners and one of whom, kibet begged the chmapion of the man open race. He wanted to take a picture with himm but all of them look the same to marathon man. So he gave up the idea.

the 9-hr red-eye flight made the unsettled body and mind very pique. and finally it landed in doha airport before dawn.

marathon man shook his jacket before he put it on. then before the plane stopped from taxing, he found out that his $510 frameless, transition-lense glasses were missing from his pocket where he used to clip them when he watched the in-flight movies( he finished 2, 'kung fu chef' by sammo hung, a funny bone. and 'moon' which was a boring sci_fi cum psycho trash). he checked out all his pockets, the seat pocket in front. the seat, but it was nowhere to be found. he kneeled dwon to check the floor. also did not find them. the other passenger were alerted. helped him to find. did not bring any happy outcome. finally, the plane stopped, people started to alight. marathon man remained there. when almost all passenger left, he alerted the air stewardessesw ho helped him to search by turning on the reading lights. as the second ticked away, marathon man wondered where could they be? could they land themselves on someone"s luggage and no more in the plane? as he was feeling a sense of helplessness and hopelessness, he saw something underneath the seat in the opposite row. he realised he was onto something.
How the heck they landed themselves in that spot, he wouldn't want to fathom, he just felt so relieved. he said to the stewardess, " i found them! thank God."

The helpers also were happy. One of them said, "next time, put on your glasses before the plane lands."

He said, "oh, I think I would. You know what, I left my glasses in the seat pocket, the last time I took this airline."

She said, "oh. That was no coincident, you better check whether you leave anything elsee?"

Her reminder triggered a switch in his grey matters, she was the one who brought him back his glasses when he was waiting in the transit lounge. Oh boy, other than thanking her for her kind service, was he not captivated by her arabic-euro facial fetures and her slender shape and her oriental demeanders or what? That face stuck in his mind even when he landed in turkey.

Now he was looking at her.

He said, "yes, I did leave my heart in doha........"
