The pilot and his companions arrived at Istanbul Airport. While waiting for a taxi, a car pulled up in front of them. The pilot leaned toward the driver and asked:
Pilot: "Will you take us to a hotel nearby?"
Driver: "Yes, get in."
They entered the taxi, and the pilot asked:
Pilot: "What's the name of the hotel we'll be staying at?"
Driver: "Hilton Garden Hotel. It's close to here. Do you need any help?"
Pilot: "We'll need you to come back for us in two hours. We don't plan to stay long. We want to board the ship, head to Bulgaria, and then continue on to Switzerland."
Driver: "It's cloudy at sea, there might be rain."
Pilot: "It's a short trip. We'll just hear the air above the ship… Oh, we've reached the hotel."
The pilot and his companions got out of the taxi. The pilot paid the driver, and they went straight into the hotel.
They booked rooms for two hours to rest.
Two hours later, the pilot's watch rang. He woke up, realizing an hour had already passed.
Pilot: "It's time to go. I'll call my companions."
At the door, the leader and the girl were already waiting.
Leader and Girl: "You're late. The taxi driver is waiting outside — I saw his car through the window."
Pilot: "I overslept. Let's go. Carry your bags."
The pilot and his companions left the hotel, got into the taxi, and headed to the port.
When they arrived, the ship's whistle echoed loudly. Departure was near. They hurried aboard, and soon the ship began sailing across the Black Sea.
