Staying up though having decided it would be far more sensible to get to bed. Reloading the airline’s website until the “planned” time is joined by a timestamp only two minutes later than the time planned, one minute ago now, followed by a word in black capitals: DEPARTED. Gate B29. Imagining the soft harsh rush of an aeroplane forcing itself into the sky on its way through the night to me.
