Romancing a Stalker - Page 40/57

"I can do better than that my good man. I will personally drive you to the airport," the car dealer offered.

"That is most kind, I thank you," Arflin said as he waited for the man to finish some paper work.

"What times does your flight leave?" The man asked as he was finishing some papers on his desk.

"My flight leaves at 1:20, but I was told to be at the airport an hour early," Arflin said as the man had stood up and was putting on his coat.

"That will work out just fine. I was running a bit late this morning and skipped breakfast. We can stop and have an early lunch. I am famished," the man laughed.

They stopped at a fast food restaurant on the way to the airport. The man ordered a hamburger all the way with fries and a coke. Arflin ordered a plain hamburger, small fries and a coke.

"Where are you heading Mr. Farmington?" The man asked as he was only making small talk while they were eating lunch.

"I'm going t o the United States to see my cousin. I have not seen him in ten years. He owns a construction company somewhere near New York City. He promised me a job and I'm taking him up on his offer," Arflin said.

Arflin knew this would totally throw the man off concerning his real destination just in case anyone asked questions. It really didn't matter as the man only wished him good luck as they finished their burgers and drove to the airport.

"How is that for timing it? It is 12 pm and your flight leaves in an hour and twenty minutes," the man said as once again he wished Arflin good luck and let him off at the loading ramp.

Arflin noticed the security at the airport seemed a lot tighter than it was when he was here earlier that morning, but with the entire terrorist and their threats on a global scale he understood why.

While Arflin was sitting in the waiting area he noticed a young lady sitting directly across from him. She kept staring at him and it was beginning to make him nervous.

Could this young lady have been at his trial when he was convicted of murdering those three women? Maybe she recognized him from a news coverage photo from the trial. If this was the case then he must find a way to silence her forever before she had a chance to blow his cover he thought to him self. Just about that time the young lady got out of her seat and walked over to him.
