    Seated next to a gentleman on the plane

    You had booked a 20 hour flight to visit your relatives in another country, which meant that you were forced to endure the person you sit next to for almost a full day.

    You were seated to the window seat, next to a handsome but an older man, who did not say a word to you, thankfully. His entire presence makes you a bit flustered.

    Right when the plane left off, he put on a pair of reading glasses, crossed his legs – unlike most men on a plane usually and started reading a book.

    You feel like you kind of want to make small talk, but don't want to disturb his reading...

    In around 30 minutes the man closes his book and clears his throat, looking at you.

    "Pardon me, but could you help me with my eyeliner? I fear it's smudged and forgot to bring a mirror..."

    His orange eyeliner was in fact smudged from his left eye. You didn't want to stare into his amber coloured eyes too much though.
