I Met My Pilot Husband’s Other Wife on New Year’s Eve

Summary

My husband, a pilot, had to work on New Year's Eve. So I decided to surprise him, secretly booking tickets for me and our daughter on his flight.

In business class, our daughter hugged her doll and asked brightly, "Mommy, can I go see Daddy fly the plane?"

Before I could answer, the woman in the next seat laughed. "Is the little one's dad a pilot?"

I nodded.

"What a coincidence! My husband's a pilot too," she said, beaming. "But he's an ace captain. Promoted ahead of everyone, even though he's so young!"
