A Woman Puts Her Feet on My Husband’s Seat on the Plane – I Couldn’t Take It and Got Back at Her

After a tiring week visiting my husband Rodney’s parents, we were eager to return home. Exhausted, we boarded a midnight flight from London for an eight-hour journey back to the States, craving our own bed and shower. The thought of collapsing into cozy sheets and sleeping until noon kept us going. Rodney joked about our shower’s water pressure, a luxury compared to his parents’ weak trickle, and we laughed, cherishing the small comforts of home.

Clutching my backpack, I followed Rodney to our seats, 28B and 28C, with him in the middle and me by the window. The aisle seat remained empty. Not first class, but we were together, too tired to care. Rodney stowed our carry-on and sighed in relief, while I pulled out my trusty travel pillow. “All I want is sleep,” I whispered. He chuckled, agreeing, hoping for a calm flight. Little did we know, things wouldn’t go as planned.
