Rio and Mateo woke up to Rio's alarm buzzing in the morning like usual, feeling a mix of excitement and dread. Unfortunately, his System was still shut down since 24 hours had yet to pass since he chose to upgrade it.
Since it was the day of the flight, he likely wouldn't have a chance to check it out until they landed in England. Although it was a bit of a bummer, he didn't mind too much.
The two boys finished their final packing and had a tearful breakfast with Rio's parents before heading off to the airport. While they were sitting in the terminal, waiting for the gate to open, Rio noticed something weird.
Was it just his imagination or were people looking at him? Whenever he raised his head he would see people turning around after presumably staring at him while he wasn't looking.
"Is there something on my face?" Rio turned to Mateo and asked, feeling a little self-conscious.
