"He and I have been best friends since we were kids. I've never once heard him mention having a girlfriend, let alone posting couple photos on social media. There's absolutely no way."
No matter who Captain Gray asked, the answer was the same: they'd never seen any posts from me.
And every single one of them was certain I'd never had a girlfriend.
But I'd seen it with my own eyes. After I posted those photos, they'd all left comments underneath, congratulating us, sending well-wishes.
What the hell was going on?
While I stood there, utterly lost, the passengers around me started voicing their complaints:
"Clearly this guy's got something wrong upstairs. He imagined a girlfriend who doesn't even exist, then threw a fit about it on a plane."
"Exactly. His own parents and friends all confirmed he's never had a girlfriend, and none of them have ever seen any photos. How does he have the nerve to scream about a missing girlfriend on a flight?"
"What rotten luck. It's the holidays, I'm trying to get home, and instead I'm stuck dealing with some lunatic who's completely derailed my trip."
"Just lock him up in a psychiatric facility already. Don't let him out where he can cause more trouble."
