中国東方航空、トランジットで上海へ。ビザなし入国の予習しまくったけど実際は超すんなり入国できた。4月に北京行った際の指紋登録が恐らく残ってて、中国さすが〜となる。空港からは念願のマグレブ(リニアモーターカー)に乗って上海市内へ (ヨーロッパ旅行と言いつつ実は一番くらいに楽しみにしてたかもしれない xD) でも実際乗ってみたら最高速度300km/hで、東北新幹線と一緒じゃん！となりズッコケた。微信とアリペイ登録してったのに、カードの2段階認証が来て結局使えず大焦り。恋人のアリペイが使えたので何とか生存できた。中国はマジでオンライン決済しか人権がない。

上海は二度目(空港のみ含めると三度目)だったけど、やっぱりTHE中国の華やかさがあってすごく楽しかった！日本やアメリカ系のアプリにも接続できるeSIMを使ったおかげでネットワークは問題なかったけど、やっぱりGoogleマップでスルスル乗り換え案内が出てくる他国とは訳が違うからそういうスリルもあって中国は楽しい(英語もあんま通じないし、事前準備しとかないと怖いけど) 浦東空港のミサイルみたいなターミナルが好き。

Flew to Sanghai via China Eastern Airlines for a layover. I had studied up a lot for a visa-free entry but getting in was a lot easier and smoother than I thought. I guess my fingerprint registration from my trip to Beijing in April still was on file: I have to give my props to China! I finally got to take the Maglev from the airport, which I really had been excited for the most even tho it was Europe trip xD But the maximum speed was only at 300 km/h which is the same as the Tohoku Shinkansen :( that was a bit of a letdown. Also i couldn't use wechat pay and Alipay even tho i had set them up because my card required two-factor authentication. My boyfriend could use Alipay so that really saved us tho. You really don't have any rights and almost die without online payments in china, no joke. It was my second time in Shanghai (third if you count just the airport) and I feel the vibrant energy of china so much from this city and that was a lot of fun! I had no issues with internet connection cuz we use eSIM that worked with Japanese and American apps, but navigating in China is a whole different story compared to other countries where Google Maps smoothly guides you through every transfer. That element of thrill makes China exciting i thin (though it's a bit scary if you don't prepare in advance, especially since people don't speak English) Love the terminal at pudong airport, the view of which looks like a lot of missiles on the celling.

so the Japanese maglev is in prototype stages but what are the current fastest trains? I heard there's a super slick maglev in Shanghai

The Shanghai Maglev is an incredible machine and is currently the fastest train service in commercial operation, with a cruise speed of 268 mph. Its job is to move passengers from the airport to Longyang Road Station, from where they can transfer to other non-maglev lines to get to the city center. The Shanghai Maglev was designed as a test, sort of a proof of concept. The idea was to show this was viable and could be used to do a maglev rail network across the country.

Now I should point out that 268 mph is the cruise speed, which means that's just the fastest it operates with passengers. During testing...it went faster.

The top operational commercial speed of this train is 431 km/h (268 mph), making it the world's fastest train in regular commercial service since its opening in April 2004. During a non-commercial test run on 12 November 2003, piloted by Jonathan Texiera, a maglev train achieved a Chinese record speed of 501 km/h (311 mph).

Now if we're talking about current fastest trains all across the board...

Steam: everyone who follows me likely knows this by now, but the current speed record holder for steam traction is LNER 4468 Mallard, an A4 4-6-2 Pacific designed by Sir Nigel Gresley. Here is a link to my post on Mallard from earlier this year if you want to read more about that. I don't shut up about this locomotive ever. Mallard's record sits at 126 mph.

Electric, (Conventional) Steel-Wheeled: The TGV POS currently holds that record, with trainset 4402 setting it in April 2007 at a whopping 357.2 mph.

Diesel: A diesel-electric British Rail Class 43 set a diesel speed record in 1987 - locomotive 43102 (renumbered 43302), trailed by 43159, managed to hit 148.5 mph. There are reports a Spanish Talgo XXI hit 159 mph in 2002 and a Russian TEP80 hit 168 mph in 1993, but those haven't been verified. It's possible, though!

Electric, Maglev: As fast as that one in Shanghai is, the SCMaglev does have it beat. The L0 series currently sits atop the maglev high score boards with a manned test run that hit 375 mph in 2015.

Wikipedia does have a whole page on railway speed records if you want to learn more! I'd recommend checking it out.

Our Persistence Made Shipping Bed Linen to Saudi Arabia Possible—You Won’t Find Another Company Like Us!

Our Persistence Made Shipping Bed Linen to Saudi Arabia Possible—You Won’t Find Another Company Like Us!

Mr. Ge from Ningbo is in the textile business, often shipping bed linen to Saudi Arabia. This time, he had over 22 cubic meters of goods to ship, and because of the tight timeline, he needed air freight. He was introduced to me by a friend.

As an experienced freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia, I am quite familiar with the Saudi route. Although there are many flights to the Middle East, only larger airlines like Emirates and Turkish Airlines operate cargo planes, while others, such as Qatar Airways and Kuwait Airways, mainly use wide-body passenger planes with limited cargo space. This shipment was over 20 cubic meters in volume, and the client wanted it shipped in one batch, so choosing the right airline was crucial. Even for us, as a seasoned freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia, this was a challenging task. The client mentioned that other freight forwarders couldn’t offer a solution for shipping everything in one go. He felt that our company was larger and more reliable, with a never-give-up attitude, so he placed his hopes in us.

Since the client trusted me so much, I couldn’t let him down. In our 20+ years of operation, Sunny Worldwide Logistics has a 99% on-time delivery rate, unless there are natural disasters or other uncontrollable events.

Since the client’s goods were in Ningbo, we based our solution on flying from Shanghai Airport, which is nearby. I primarily reached out to Emirates (EK) and Qatar Airways (QR). As backup options, we also considered other airports in Nanjing and Hangzhou, which have increasing numbers of international flights. We even looked into Wenzhou and found a transfer option via QR flights to Qatar, which was also worth considering.

Finally, persistence paid off! A contact at Qatar Airways in Shanghai informed me that there was a last-minute cancellation, leaving a perfect spot for our shipment, but it required handling two days in advance. I immediately secured the space! When I sent the route and details to the client, he was very pleased and said, “I trust you as my freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia. I feel relieved handing this over to you!”

This case is just a glimpse of how we operate. We apply the same persistence to every client—never giving up until the goal is reached. Each client gets at least three options, which is deeply connected to our company culture.

Our internal culture emphasizes constant learning, improving teamwork, and boosting passion for work. At one point, around the seventh year of our business, we hit a bottleneck. The office felt lifeless, with no energy or enthusiasm.

I was very concerned, so we introduced morning meetings. In the beginning, we would dance and play games to lift everyone's spirits. Back then, everyone who left our company was a "dance master," knowing at least seven dances! Gradually, we refined this into a structured routine. Mondays were for dancing, Tuesdays for reading about military discipline, Wednesdays for games, and Thursdays for sharing experiences.

This morning meeting culture continues to evolve. Now, on Mondays we read about military discipline, and on Wednesdays, we read about persistence, with a dedicated reading segment in the mornings. We are constantly refining this routine so that more people can get involved.

The biggest benefit of the morning meetings is that they boost energy and team cohesion. After dancing or exercising in the morning, everyone feels energized, and their moods lift. This is the culture at Sunny Worldwide Logistics—our morning meetings bring everyone together as one.

To learn more about us, you can check out my journal, where I record stories of international freight, along with the warm and touching moments we share with our clients. Feel free to reach out anytime if you need assistance.

Entry 3: In The Clouds

Date: 28.03.2024

My total Travel time, considering my journey to the airport to my hotel, was probably roughly over 27 hours. The plane ride had an alright selection of movies, but there were a number of films there which have been on my watchlist, so I thought there’s no problem binging as many as I wanted, especially for a long hall flight. The movies I watched on the plane were: La La Land, Loving Vincent and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish

My flight was a transfer, so we made a stop off in Shanghai for a couple of hours. I decided to spend this time reading a book my dad had given to me for Christmas, after we found out the news that I was accepted onto student exchange, ‘Strange Weather in Tokyo’. Its one of his favourite books he tells me, I’m still reading it but so far it seems pretty good.

After a bit I get onto my second plane and finally arrive in Tokyo Airport. I was exhausted. However, I MADE IT TO JAPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNN

⋆｡˚ ✈︎ ✈️ ⋆

My journey however was not over, my next mission was to concur the subway system!

I had watched a lot of videos/TikTok’s before coming to Japan so I could understand tips and tricks about day to day living in Tokyo, one of those was about the Suica card (the equivalent of a London Oyster card) so luckily, I got that before arriving in the country.

Even though I would be spending my time living in a sharehouse during my period of study, because of how late it was for me arriving in Japan, I was going to go to it the next day. So, for tonight I would spend it at this capsule hotel, 9 Hour Shinjuku.

Lugging two (very heavy and large) suitcases around the subway line was not ideal, but I managed. Some people helped me along the way from a British resident helping to lift my suitcase up the stair exit, to some maids (people dressed up as maids on the street to promote their maid café) helping me with directions and then finally some more chill people at this one gay bar who helped me with even more directions.

After the last set of directions, I finally arrived in 9 Hours, checked in, had コンビニ/konbini (convenience store) dinner, showered and then crashed in my pod. This specific hotel promotes the fact that you will get a guaranteed 9 hours of sleep, hence the name (they even record your sleep pattern to show how good your rest was), and I think because of my journey to even get into the country I slept like a log.

FACT: Shinjuku is the biggest gay village in the whole world.

Transportation from China to Canada under Global Trade

International commerce supports the global economy in today's linked world by facilitating the transfer of goods and services across nations. Freight from China to Canada is one of the busiest trading routes. This route demonstrates the complexity and difficulties of international logistics as well as the strength of bilateral commercial partnerships. We will dig into the complexities of moving cargo from China to Canada in this essay, looking at the routes, means of transportation, and dynamics of global commerce.

The Value of Trade Between China and Canada

China and Canada's economic relationship has grown significantly over time. Canada's abundant resources and agricultural goods have made it a desirable destination for Chinese imports. China is Canada's second-largest trade partner. The two nations' combined commerce in 2019 was an astounding $92.4 billion. As a consequence, there is a constant movement of goods between these two countries, which keeps the economy moving.

Making the Right Decision

In order to move products from China to Canada, it is crucial to choose the best route possible for transportation. Air freight and sea Freight from China to Canada are the two main choices.

Maritime Logistics:

The overwhelming bulk of items are sent by ship from China to Canada. Containers are transported by ships laden with a variety of goods, including electronics, textiles, and equipment. These goods must leave from important Chinese ports, including Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Ningbo. The central locations are Canadian ports, including Vancouver, Montreal, and Halifax. Despite the fact that it might take several weeks for products to arrive at their destination, the transpacific route is one of the most popular choices since it provides affordable transportation.

Air Transport:

Air freight is often employed for high-value, time-sensitive commodities even though sea freight is the most cost-effective option. The quickness and effectiveness of air transportation are advantageous for things like electronics, medical equipment, and perishables. Significant airports, including Beijing Capital International Airport, Shanghai Pudong International Airport, and Hong Kong International Airport, are linked to Canadian hubs like Toronto Pearson International Airport and Vancouver International Airport via air freight lines between China and Canada.

Getting Around Regulations and Customs

International shipping involves navigating both nations' regulatory and customs regulations. Both exporters and importers are required to abide by China's and Canada's legal and administrative requirements. This entails delivering appropriate paperwork, following customs protocols, and making sure that goods adhere to the necessary safety and quality requirements.

China Customs and the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) are in charge of implementing these rules. It is essential to have a thorough understanding of import and export laws in order to guarantee quick and easy customs clearance.

Taxes and customs may significantly impact the price of shipment. The 2012 Canada-China Free Commerce Agreement has aided in the reduction or elimination of several tariffs on a variety of items, fostering commerce between the two countries.

The Function of Freight Brokers

The shipping procedure from China to Canada may be made simpler with the help of freight forwarders. These logistics professionals aid in planning the flow of products, making sure they arrive at their destination on schedule and in excellent shape. In order to reduce the burden on enterprises engaged in international commerce, goods forwarders manage paperwork, customs clearance, logistics for transit, and more.

Challenges in International Shipping that Are Changing

The Freight from China to Canada confronts a number of difficulties even though it is crucial for both nations. The current worldwide shipping container scarcity, which has driven up freight charges, is one of the most significant. This problem was made worse by the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in supply chain interruptions that still have an impact on global commerce.

International shipping is becoming more concerned with environmental sustainability. With a greater emphasis on utilizing more environmentally friendly fuels and enhancing energy efficiency, China and Canada are both working to minimize the carbon footprint of their transportation networks.

In order to link two countries with strong economic cooperation, goods from China to Canada are a crucial aspect of international commerce. The movement of commodities between these nations depends on the skill of goods forwarders, careful route planning, and observance of laws and regulations. However, as global commerce develops, issues including environmental sustainability and a lack of shipping containers will continue to affect this vital route. The future of this dynamic economic relationship will depend on navigating these difficulties while encouraging the expansion of commerce between China and Canada.

This was painful to write. ⊹ ����𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐬 pt. 1 | pt. 2 | disclaimer | masterlist

Dear Chenle,

So I’m doing as you told me, I’m writing out my self-destructive thoughts before I do something stupid. You’re in Shanghai visiting your family for Chinese New Year and I’m here, thousands of miles away.

Despite knowing I was going to fuck up, at the airport I told you I was fine. I sounded so certain, I almost convinced myself. But on the Uber ride back I broke down. And when I told the driver to take me to the nearest club, he told me he was given stiff instructions to see me home.

I knew you didn’t trust me. Neither do I. 

You wanted me to come with you. You said that I’ll need to meet your family eventually. Chenle, your family actually cares about you. They would see right through me. Those things they effortlessly provide for you – consistency, comfort, and affection – I struggle with. I think what frightens me is that you almost convinced me to come. Please understand that I’m a home-wrecker, not your domestic girlfriend. 

So here I am, sitting still on my bed on a Friday night. The itch is there...it’s always there. It’s worse when I’m alone with my thoughts.

Dear Chenle,

I met someone that makes me smile like you do. Sungchan is the same age as us and he studies the same thing as me in university. You would like him, he’s good at everything like you. Plus he’s a transfer student - he doesn’t know about my reputation either. 

Everyone at uni asks me why I haven’t come to this or that party. That they’ve been hitting me up with no replies. That their favorite drinking or fuck buddy hasn’t been around. I tell them I don’t need any of it now. It makes me happy that I sound so sure of myself because I’m not.

Dear Chenle,

You facetimed me yesterday night. You cried because you couldn’t touch me through the screen. I couldn’t handle it and turned away. You asked me if I was writing in the journal you gave me and when I said yes, you asked me to read an entry to you. I couldn’t.

You talked about everything, the new silverware your Mom purchased for your homecoming, the number of times your aunties kissed you on the cheek, how you dreamed of me dancing on your first night home. My chest burned when you said my name.

You insisted on waiting until I fell asleep. I drifted off in two minutes instead of two hours. Because with you in my head, I can’t think normally. 

Dear Chenle,

It’s been a week since I stopped picking up your calls. I finally cracked and I’m too much of a pussy to tell you. You had so much faith in me but I couldn’t handle myself. I needed company. Despite knowing I fucked up the one good thing in my life I haven't cried today. 

Dear Chenle,

You finally left after telling me about a thousand times that it’s okay and that you understand. But I don’t understand. Why are you still trying with me? I refused to let you go further than kiss me, the last thing I need you to see is the marks Sungchan left on me.

But none of this really matters because you’re gone again. Business trips are your new normal and I’ll only see you twice a month, maybe less. I should be happy that you’ve been promoted.

It would be so easy to slip away from you. 

Dear Chenle,

I think I love you. Which is why I want to run so badly. I’m afraid of you. I can’t even look you in the eye.

Get out of my head, you don’t understand me as well as you think you do. Every day I plan and scheme and decide today’s the day I tell you no. And then I pick up the phone and I’m happy. Like ridiculously so. The type of happy that I don’t notice I’m smiling and neither can you.

I hate you for making me so weak. I hate that you keep dreaming about me. And that every time you say you miss me I find myself saying it back. 

Please leave me alone so I don’t have to. I’d rather break my own heart than break yours.

Bang Chan// Lights Flew by

𝕊𝕥𝕣𝕒𝕪 𝕂𝕚𝕕𝕤 ℂ𝕙𝕣𝕚𝕤𝕥𝕞𝕒𝕤 𝕊𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕖𝕤

Scenario: Being stuck at the airport with a handsome stranger on Christmas eve doesn’t seem so bad after all.

Genre: Fluff Trope: Strangers to Lovers Pairing: Bang Chan X Writer!Reader Word count: 8,4K Warnings: Love at first sight, hehehehe. (Very cheesy I know)

  You sat in the cab on your way to the airport. You had to say goodbye to your beloved city for a few months for a writing job. You are a traveling writer who has the privilege to work under a company who lets you do the things you loved the most: traveling and writing.

You were excited for your newest upcoming project, where you had to travel to Sydney. You were very popular under the young adult readers and they had all were excited for your new project. In the mean time you wanted to see how the Australians spend their Christmas, but you were afraid that you weren’t going to see too much of it, since your company send you on Christmas way to Australia.

You weren’t complaining though, you were already honoured by them choosing you for this big project. You had to write about the beauty of Australia’s underrated places. Places that are special to other people and you were absolutely stoked to be the one who got to write about it.

As you sat in the cab, you were checking your phone to inform your family that you were almost there. They were sad that you weren’t home for Christmas, but they were happy for you that you had gotten yet another big project. You already didn’t life in your home country anymore and your family just missed having you around.

Your family often remind you of how you used to make up scenes and would act them out for their entertainment. They were great memories that you gladly thought back to. Photos made it even better, seeing yourself in an oversized dress, playing the crazy aunt who liked a little drink on a family dinner who makes everyone laugh, genuinely made everyone laugh.

“Ma’am, we’re here. I will help you with your carrier.” “Thank you so much, keep the change.” You smiled at the driver. “Why thank you Ma’am.” He says whilst bowing gratefully. “No, thank you and happy holidays.” You said cheerfully to him before walking towards the entrance of the airport.

It was freezing and you couldn’t feel your toes, even though you had been outside for just a minute. You felt the warmth welcome you as soon as you stepped inside the airport and sighed in content. Finding the place where you had to check in and drop off your carrier also seemed a little harder than you thought, since you kept getting distracted by the beautiful decoration that hung around the airport.

The camera that you kept in your luggage was swiftly taken out into view as you started to photograph every little detail that your eye had caught. For example, the cute elderly couple who were having a cup of coffee and shared a piece of pie, was just too adorable to not photograph. You smiled to them and loved the picture as you showed it to them. Of course, you asked for permission at first and was relieved when they were fine with it.

Now you had to hurry to the check in and drop off your bags. Bumping into people on the way to it, earned you weird looks from others. You apologised quickly to them as you kept speeding through the crowd.

When you finally arrived at the check in, which was almost on the other side of the airports, you sighed in relief. You made it in time, but now you had to look for your passport and ticked that were hiding in your bag.

“Dang you bag with too many pockets.” You whispered to yourself as you kept moving, until you harshly bumped into someone and ended on the ground with a squeal. “I’m so sorry!” You quickly said in Korean whilst bowing. “It’s no problem. Is your camera okay?” The handsome male asked. You looked up to him to speak and caught yourself staring at him. He wore a simple black sweater and ripped black jeans, very simple but very hot as well. You definitely couldn’t deny that.

“I-uh, Yeah! Yes, it’s fine! I got it covered in insurances.” You laughed in embarrassment. ‘C’mon Y/n, keep yourself together. It isn’t like it’s the first time you’ve talked to a handsome guy- Who am I kidding?’ You thought to yourself.

You quickly brushed the situation off your shoulder when the lady called ‘next in line’ and almost ran to her. You were glad that after the small incident everything went smoothly, so you though until you noticed that the same guy was on the same plane as you right next to you, the aisle in between of you dividing the both of you.

“I guess we meet again.” He says with a chuckle at your embarrassed state. What makes you think that he knows you’re embarrassed? Well, hiding your face behind your palm whilst sneaking a look every now and then, plus covering half of your face with your sweater, doesn’t make you seem suspicious at all. No, you certainly wouldn’t look, weird. “Where you heading to?” He asked, making you drop everything and just give him a look in disbelief before you burst out in laughter. “I don’t know, I guess wherever you are going since we are on a plane that’s traveling to Sydney, Australia. So, what do you think.” You asked whilst still laughing. Now it was the guy’s turn to be embarrassed.

“I’m sorry, I’m exhausted and- when are we going to air? I-“ He says quickly to get out of yet another awkward situation. “It’s okay, have a good flight and happy holidays.” You say kindly before you focussed on your own screen.

The flight from Seoul to Shanghai was about two hours long and you had to entertain yourself in that time by yourself, since the plane didn’t provide a tv. Which you found logic, since it was a short flight. You decided to get this flight some sleep, since you wanted to work on some writing as well, since you had nothing else to do.

The hours passed and you had arrived in Shanghai. You now had to wait for your transfer flight.

“Passengers of the flight Qantas QF130, the flight has been delayed due technical difficulties and securities faults. The flight has been delayed by five hours. I repeat passenger of the…”

You groaned to yourself and informed the Hotel about the situation and the chauffeur who was supposed to pick you up, you didn’t wanted the poor person to wait five hours extra for you. You checked your phone and noticed that it was also on the verge of dying. You brought your charger but every wall outlet seemed to be taken by other passengers who were waiting for the time to pass like you. So you just sat there on a random bench at the Shanghai Airport with a notebook in your hands, trying to come up with inspiration to write. You wanted to safe the battery of your laptop to be able to write on the plane, but it seems like it would be a long wait to do so.

You took out your camera, you were glad that you had charged that before you entered the plane in Seoul. You could walk around and look for beautiful thing to capture. Speaking of: “So we meet once again pretty stranger.” The same guy you shared these awkward moments with hours ago.

‘Did he just call me pretty?’ You asked yourself in surprise.

“If we’re going to keep meeting, maybe we should get to know each other’s names?” You smiled, playing along with his little smooth act. And it worked since you saw him fall into a flustered state, making you laugh.

“I’m Chan, as well as Chris. It’s my English name.” The handsome young man smiled as he stuck out his hand for you to shake. You returned the smile and took his hand in yours. “I’m Y/n, nice to meet you.” “Nice to meet you too. I guess we’re stuck here for a while.” He chuckled as he turned to you in the mildly-comfortable chair.

“I guess we are. So, why are you going to Sydney?” You asked Chan after you both sat in silence for a while and both obviously wanted the time to pass by quickly. “I’m going to visit my family for the holidays.” “Ah, I already had a feeling.” You giggled. “Did the accent give it away?” He wiggled his eyebrows as he emphasized his strong accent. “No. Not at all.” You sang jokingly, making him laugh as well. “What about you? Are you also visiting family for the holidays?” “No, I’m traveling for work. I have a writing job, so I was send to Australia for it.” “You have to work on Christmas?” Chan asked you shocked. “Well yeah I guess so, but really I don’t mind. I’ve always been interested in Australia and I’ve heard great things about it from my fellow traveling colleagues, so I was quite excited to go. Didn’t expect it would be around Christmas time though.”

Chan noticed the sad undertone in the way you spoke and, for some reason, started to pity you. He was very hardworking as well, but he knew what it was like to not see your family around times like this.

“What did your family think about you traveling no Christmas then?” He asked genuinely. “They didn’t like the idea, but they still supported me. They know how hard I worked for this and that I love doing what I do. So I will just facetime them tomorrow and ‘spend’ Christmas with them through a screen.” You chuckled.

“Did you already update them on the plane situation?” Chan asked.  “Yeah I did it immediately, because my phone is one the edge of dying and all the wall outlets are taken by other people.” “You can use my portable charger if you want to.” He offered before he almost turned his bag upside down for you. “Got it! Here, you can use it.” Chan placed the small object in your hand. “Are you sure? Don’t you want to use it for yourself? I bet you have your own stuff to charge-“ “I have two. I can use the one for my laptop. Don’t worry.” He smiled brightly.

You were taken back by his kindness, but took the charger, since you wanted to stay in touch with your family if something would happen.

You had to try and hide your slightly flustered state from him and go on, but after some time without talking you heard a grumbling coming from Chan’s side and your head shot towards him. He stared in shock at his phone, until he hid his face in his hands and laughed loudly in embarrassment. “You’re hungry Chan?” You playfully asked him. He looked at you shyly as he still had his hood over his head. He nodded his head slightly which made you laugh. Sooner enough your own stomach started to grumble.

Chan started to laugh loudly once again, before he started packing up his bag. “Do you want to for a bite then?” He asked and you happily complied. You packed your own stuff and went to look for a restaurant with the handsome stranger you met hours ago.

The restaurant wasn’t too busy. Who’s going to work or travel on Christmas eve- oh wait. You are. And so is Chan apparently. The restaurant was Christmasy decorated and the Christmas music was filling you with a fuzzy feeling. You and Chan had ordered some juice before you got your diner. “Pineapple juice?” “Yeah, I love it. Would you like some?” “No, I’m good with my raspberry one.” You giggled as Chan did a little happy dance as he drank his beverage.

“Well aren’t you two the cutest!” You two turned to your side to see an elderly couple smiling at the two of you. “W-what?” Chan stuttered in surprise. “You two, aren’t you a couple? I still can remember the day when my sweet husband took me on my first date.” She says with a sweetening smile. “Honey, I don’t think that sweet couple wants to hear such a story from old farts like us.” The man in front of her, assumingly her husband, roared in laughter. Chan and you fell into a fit of laughter yourself. “I would love to hear it.” You said, genuinely wondering and feeling a little inspired. You didn’t notice it, but Chan looked at you in awe as you listened to the elderly couple talk happily about their history together. The way you were immerged into the story had him staring at you for a good thirty minutes, until he caught himself and began to eat again.

He didn’t know what it was, but something about you was just absolutely captivating. “…and then we had three grandchildren. Let me tell you triplets sound fun, but they are very tiring. We love them very much. Those little guys always seem to look for a little trouble, but they help their grandma and grandpa very well, actually we’re on our way soon to meet them. We haven’t seen the three in two years!” “I’m very happy for you. Ma’am, may I ask to write about your story. I’m a traveling writer and my agency might be interested and let me publish it along the other stories that I will create.” “Sure sweetheart! Of course you can!” The pair were delighted by your enthusiasm and adored the way you worked as you took notes of their love story.

The pair were excited when you promised them an early copy of the story before they left and even hugged you goodbye. When you looked back to Chan, he just smiled at you like a weirdo. “What?” You asked him as you took a bite of your now-cold food. “I thought you were a traveling writer.” Chan stated the obvious with a chuckle. “Yes, didn’t we talked about this already?” “I was thinking about you know like a travel guide, but you’re writing love stories?” “I guess I do. My agency asked me to write about people’s favourite places in Australia that aren’t like you know overrated or too crowded. I want to make it personal and have people tell me their story why it’s their favourite place and the history of it. I also wanted to make a Christmas special and see how people in Australia celebrate it.”

Chan was surprised and a few scenes popped into his mind. He saw himself walking by the beaches, enjoying the sunset as you talked. He saw himself sitting with you in his backyard, a cup of tea in both you and his hands as you cuddled up next to each other.

He didn’t know why, but he quite enjoyed the visions.

“I-I could show you around. I-If you wouldn’t mind.” He offered shyly whilst stuttering. “E-excuse me?” You asked, almost choking on your drink.

“Yeah, I mean. My mom probably won’t mind setting an extra plate.” He chuckled once again. “Chan, we’ve known each other for like three hours. I don’t think-“ “Then let’s get to know each other!” Chan’s own spontaneous act startled himself.   “What do you mean-“ “There’s so much to do here! Let’s go and do something! I heard there’s a place where we could ice skate!” “But I can’t-“ Chan had cut you off once again and dragged you out of the restaurant by the hand.

Your heart was racing and your cheeks were heating up. You didn’t know where to look or how to feel if this was even right, something just felt like it was. As if it was meant to be.

Chan came back with two pairs of ice-skates after you arrived at the ice rank. He stumbled on his feet as he tried to waggle towards you, looking like a kid who just learned how to walk. You laughed at him, making him look at you in a funny way.

“What? Do I look funny? You’re laughing at me?” He asks playfully. “N-no!” You stuttered in between laughs. “Yes you are! How dare you! Just when I thought that we were getting to know each other.” He cries dramatically. “Stop you big baby and let’s go!” This time you dragged him along as you waggled your way to the rink.

You had the rink to yourselves since it was late at night and almost no one, but the fellow passengers of your flight. You struggled to keep standing on the ice, making you hold on for your life on the edge. Chan on the other hand was speeding back and forth on the ice. “Y/n! C’mon!” “I can’t skate!” You laughed, making Chan skate towards you.

He stood two inches away from you, his face a little bit too much in your personal space, but you didn’t seemed to mind since Chan has been already feeling you some kind of way. He suddenly grabbed your hand and placed them on his arms. “Then hold onto me.” He whispered. Once again, your heart fluttered at his words as you experience a movie like moment.

Chan helped you across the ice and giggled when you almost fell and started to hold on tighter to him. He looked down at you and felt his hard thump harder and louder as he heard you squeal. The music changed from an upbeat Christmas song to a more romantic one. Both you and Chan looked at the music guy, who simply just gave the two of you a thumbs-up.

Chan couldn’t look you in the eye as Mariah Carey blasted through the place. He heard you sing along with the song and played along as he started to sing to you. You were surprised by his skilled voice and kept singing with him. When the song ended, the two of you felt cramps in your feet and decided that you had skated enough for that day.

“Well that was fun.” Chan giggled as he wiggled his toes to get the uncomfortable feeling out of it. “It was. I never thought I could do it.” You laughed. “You were really good! And by the way, I didn’t know you could sing?” “There’s a lot of things you don’t know about me Channie.” Another flutter came across his heart as you shot him a playful wink and a smile.

“Chan?” You asked as you were walking through the airport with Chan, still after hours together, on your side. “Yes?” “Did you ask your mother about me joining-“ “Let me call her.” Chan took out his phone and dialled his mother’s number. She answered the phone within seconds.

“Channie! My son! Are you here already?” She asked cheerfully. “You didn’t tell them?” You whispered yelled to Chan who facepalmed himself in disbelief. “I thought I did, I guess I got caught up a little.” He whispered back, scratching his neck whilst chuckling. “Channie? Who is that with you?” You heard his mother’s voice ask and you started to panic as if you were a girlfriend who met her boyfriend’s parent’s for the first time. “Mom, that’s Y/n. We’re both stuck in Hong Kong for hours and then we will be able to get to Sydney.” “Is she your girlfriend?” You were shocked by the loud voice that came from his mother as she excitedly squealed. “N-no! Mom! She’s someone I just met, but I did wanted to asks something that has to do with her.” 

“What is it dear?” She asked.  “Well, Y/n is a writer that I just met and she’s really nice. She’s visiting Sydney to write about the city and she wanted to write a meaningful Christmas special and I offered to have her staying with us for Christmas. She’s working on Christmas and her family is overseas and I-I thought it would be n-nice. Only if it’s okay with you and dad of course-“ “Of course it is Channie! She sounds lovely! We’ll see you tomorrow then? For how much longer do you have to wait?” “We have to fill three more hours and then we still have a ten-hour flight. So, yeah we will see you tomorrow.” Chan’s heart did a little jump when he thought of you and him being a ‘we’.

After exchanging goodbyes, Chan hung up the phone and did some kind of shiver dance to shake off the nerves. You laughed at him and rubbed his shoulders to calm him down. “You okay there Channie?” “I-I’m fine. I just- never mind. What shall we do next? We still have three more hours to fill.” “I have no idea to be honest.” You chuckled before you two sat in an awkward silence.

An hour had passed, you and Chan had been sitting together in silence, both trying to come up with an idea to do something. Both of your eyes were getting heavier by the second and you were eventually agreeing on taking a nap. You had bought a pair of neck pillows so the pair of you could sleep decently, or well try to at least.

You sat next to each other in the seats near the gate of your flight as you tried to catch on some sleep. Slowly, you moved to the side where Chan was sitting and your head eventually rested on his shoulder. You didn’t know, but he was still awake when it happened. He was closing his eyes as he was guarding the stuff the two of you possessed. He felt his shoulder getting heavier and peeked his eye open to see what happened.

He felt cheesy to say that he thought you looked beautiful as you slept. He also felt a little bit like a creep, but let’s keep this cute, okay?

Chan smiled to himself and went ‘back to sleep’.

About another hour and a half later, both of you woke up from your slumber and this time it was you who felt some extra weight on your body. You wiggled your head slightly as you felt Chan’s cheek being squished to your temple.

You looked to your side and saw that Chan had secured your stuff so that the two of you could sleep peacefully. You noticed his hand resting closely next to you. You had to shake off the urge to hold it, even though it looks so… hold-able?

You looked up and noticed a flight attendant staring at you, making you jump up in surprise and bump Chan in the head. The pair of you groaned in pain as you rubbed both of your temples. “What are you doing-“ Chan was cut off by the flight attended who had been waiting a good five minutes for you to notice her.

“We’re boarding the flight right now, we’re taking off in twenty minutes.” She gently says as she moved on to the next passengers.   “I guess we passed time pretty fast.” You yawned as you stretched your body. “Yeah it did.” Chan mutters sleepily. His cheek being puffed up from the nap. Thin lines covering the same side of his face as a leftover from your hair imprints, making you laugh when you noticed them. “What?” Chan asked whilst rubbing his eyes to get rid of his sleep. “Nothing Channie.” You giggled as you gathered your stuff.

He was about to hand you the neck pillow, but you declined quickly. “What it’s yours?” Chan questioned. “I bought it for you though. It’s yours to keep.” You giggled as you put the pillow around his neck, squishing his cheeks all over again.

“Cute.” You murmured under your breath. “What?” “Nothing- I guess, this is a goodbye then?” You muttered, feeling sad.

“Y/n, has that nap erased your memory from the past couple of hours? We’re spending Christmas together, by the way Merry Christmas. I guess we slept our way to Christmas day.” Chan laughed. You turned your neck pillow, that still was resting on your shoulders, around so it could cover your face and cover your embarrassment.

“Let’s go cutie, I bet you don’t want to spend any longer on this airport. We have a flight to catch.” Chan grabbed you by the hand for the umpteenth time that night. “… enjoy your flight.”  The flight attended says as you and Chan boarded.

“Well, I guess I’ll see you in ten hours?” You giggled as you were about to wave Chan goodbye for now and walk off, but he seemed to follow you. Well at least that’s what you thought. “We’ve met like six or seven hours ago, can’t live without me already?” You joked. “Don’t flatter yourself too much cutie, I’m trying to get to my seat.” “Where do you sit then?” You asked before you stopped at your row. “My seat is right here.” He pointed out to the two-seater where you were also seated.

“No you’re not.” You laughed. “Yes I am.” Chan chuckled confused as he showed you his ticket.

‘He really is sitting next to me.’ You thought to yourself in disbelief. “Why- don’t tell me.” Chan asked when the realisation hits him. “Well, do you want the window seat or?” You laughed as you put your bag in the cabin after you had taken out your laptop and etcetera. “I- you take the window seat, maybe you can get some pretty shots of the flight for your stories? We’re flying towards the sunrise after all.”

“How kind of you Channie, such a thoughtful young man.” You joked before you took a seat.

About an hour or so, both you and Chan had been working separately on your laptops. Chan was producing new lyrics and music for the upcoming comeback that his group and he were preparing for.

You were typing away, feeling inspired with a new Christmas story. And what story could be better that the one you were living in. Meeting Chan by accident, spending hours together in a quite airport, having a great time together even though being still total stranger to one another. It seemed a little too much like a movie. You wondered as you typed how you and Chan would end up. You could decide when it came to your story what end it’d have, but you didn’t wanted to even think about the fact that Chan and you would have to go separate ways eventually. You weren’t sure if you actually believed at love at first sight, it’s a bit too cheesy for you, even though you’re literally a writer, it just seemed a little too much.

You peeked at Chan every now and then and more ideas, plots or scenes came to your mind to write about. He seemed to have this kind of effect on you.

You wouldn’t believe it, even if Chan himself told you that you had a special kind of effect had on you. When he looked at you when you were fast asleep on his shoulder, he felt his heart race, he felt his hands sweat and his breath quicken. You had a certain charm that had him under some kind of spell and he secretly didn’t mind it at all. He was really drawn to you and wanted to know more about you. You gave him ideas for music. Your laugh was like a new melody in his ears: unique and lovely.

He felt like he could listen to it all day. The thought made Chan internally cringe at his own corny thought. Before he knew it, he had finished a new melody and didn’t know what to do with it. The song sounded very sweet and gentle, something that the boys and him didn’t really go for when it came to their music. It was too drastic of a difference, but he couldn’t help but keep wondering what you would think of it. He knew you were busy and probably in a working flow like he was, but he needed to know now, or he wouldn’t be able to work on anything else for the rest of the plane flight.

“Y/n?” He whispered as he tapped softly on your arm. You responded with a hum as you finished your last sentence and looked up to him.

When you had turned your head to face him, his face was inches apart of yours. You gulped loudly whilst your heart raced. “Y-yes?” “C-can you listen to this for me?” Chan asked whilst handing you his headphones. “You compose music?” You asked him, trying to act surprise and like you haven’t been watching him at all.

“Yeah, I’m uh- I like doing it.” It wasn’t a complete lie, since Chan really loved composing music, but he felt like he couldn’t tell you that he was a big Kpop star. He was a little surprised that you hadn’t recognised him, but he was very humble and thought that it might just not be something you may be interested in.

You placed the headphones in your ears and Chan pressed the button with shaky fingers to let you listen to the track, He watched your reactions closely. He swear he saw a literal twinkle in your eyes as soon as the music started. You were smiling brightly at him when it was done and even applauded cutely for him. His heart was fluttering for the umpteenth time when he shot you a smile back and asked you how you had liked it.

“I loved it! I wouldn’t think you were the romantic type.” You giggled slightly before wanting to resume to your own work. “Our little ice-skating date was pretty romantic, wasn’t it?” Chan said smugly, internally not knowing where the frick he got the sudden boost of confidence from. You were wondering the same thing as you looked at Chan in shock, hands covering your mouth as you held back a squeal. “I-I suppose so.” You stuttered before quickly typing away again.

Sooner enough, the ten-hour flight had passed by and the pair of you were pretty exhausted. The nap didn’t do the both of you much and a good sleep was something the both of you wanted more than anything.

But it’s Christmas, so there wouldn’t be a lot of sleeping today. You had existed the plane and gone through the strict security, Australia was also quite known for, but luckily you didn’t look suspicious even though you looked like a mess.

Chan wasn’t doing much better. He had his hood covering most of his face as he walked around with his eyes half open, causing himself to bump against multiple people. You decided to help him out and lead him through the crowd.

“Thank you.” He said cutely as he started to cling onto you by resting his head on your shoulder. “Your welcome, you really should’ve gotten some rest on the flight.” You chuckled as you ruffled his hair. “You should’ve told me so.” He teased. “You’re going to blame me- I’m not your mother.” You laughed, slapping his shoulder playfully, causing him to laugh as well.

“Where are you staying by the way? I’ll come and pick you up.” Chan yawns after the both of you got your baggage. “Well, I’m staying at a hotel at first and I’ll be looking around for a studio apartment or something small around the city, since I will probably be here for a couple of weeks to months.” “Oh, well. If you send me the address of your hotel after resting and freshening up, I will take you to my house.” Chan said without giving the way he delivered the sentence a second thought, which made you look at him funny. “Chan.” “Y/n.” “You’re taking me to your house.” “Yes?” “D-did you just hear yourself?” You laughed out when you saw him freak out. “Not like that!” Chan cried as he frantically tried to explain the obvious.

The two of you end up laughing together whilst walking towards the exit. You went to catch a cab, whilst Chan was waiting for his dad to pick him up. “Don’t you want to meet them?” He had asked. “Channie, I’m meeting them in than 5 hours. I will be fine. Go get some quality time with your family or some sleep.” You yawned before waving him goodbye and stepping into the cab.

After some time you had arrived at your hotel. And you let yourself fall face-first onto your bed. You had called your parents to tell them you had arrived safely and that you had a new idea for a story. “Y/n, dear. You should not work so much and get a man. It’s time for you to be with someone!” Your mother whined, making you groan. “Mom, I already-“ “You what!” “Nothing mom! I have to go! I have a meeting soon! Merry Christmas!” “Merry Christmas too you too honey!” Your mother cheered before hanging up the phone.

You wanted to take a nap, but you also didn’t wanted to arrive empty handed at Chan’s place. You grabbed your camera and left your laptop to charge as you went outside to find something nice. The Westfield mall, where the receptionist advice you to go to, was huge and you were a little overwhelmed by the amount of people who were still rushing through the mall. ‘Last minute Christmas presents.’ You chuckled to yourself. You snapped a couple of pictures of the people rushing and took a couple of notes so that you wouldn’t forget to write about this later on.

After strolling around for about an hour or so, you arrived at a boutique. A glistering necklace in the display had caught your eye. It was very minimalistic, but very elegant. You thought it would make a great gift for his mother. You went along with a watch for Chan’s dad and two gift cards with a generous amount for Chan’s siblings.

Now, you just had to get Chan himself a gift. He was the one who helped you out for a Christmas story in such a short time and you wanted to thank him. You had no idea what to get him. You saw a simple silver bracelet and quite like the look of it. You remembered Chan wearing some silver bracelets on his wrists from earlier at the airport. Which you didn’t notice when you were creeping on him when he was fast asleep on you, no. Not at all.

You bought it as well and went on with your spare hours you still had left until you had to go and meet the Bang Family. It might also be a great idea to look presentable, so you went to get a proper outfit.

You found a cute red dress and went to buy it. The red was quite Christmassy and the dress was quite flowy since it was hot in Sydney around this time of the year.

More time passed by and before you knew it you got a call from the phone that was in your hotel room. “Ma’am there is this young man named Chris, saying he is looking for you.” “Yes, you can send him to my room! Thank you.” You said, before rushing to the room and fixing your face and your dress.

‘Why am I getting so worked up. This is for work purposes. Maybe I should wear something else-‘ Your thoughts had been interrupted by the sound of a knocking. You peeked through the peeking hole and saw Chan standing, wearing a white blouse. The leather-ish jeans looked good on him, and the little red detail he wore with the tie around his neck made him look ready for Christmas.

“Y/n-“ You snapped out of your thoughts once again and swung the door open, surprising both you and Chan.

You stared at each other after and were both at loss for words.

“Hi.” You managed to say after two minutes of silence, which felt more like an hour. “Hi.” Chan chuckled in responds. “You look great.” He added whilst sneakily checking you out. “Thank you, so do you. Wait here, I got to grab my stuff and I’ll be right there.”

“Y-you got us presents?” Chan gasped in disbelief when he saw the Swarovski logo on the bag. “Of course I did. I can’t arrive empty handed, can I?” You giggled as you started to make your way down the hall, but Chan’s grip on your arm stopped you. “You didn’t have to.” “I know, but I wanted to. Your family is letting a stranger stay and gather personal moments and let me write about it. It’s the least thing I could do.” Your smile was genuine and your words were sincere. Chan’s heart was warmed and it wasn’t the Australian heat that had gotten to him.

Moments later you arrived at Chan’s home and you waited together at the doorstep, before going inside. “Are you ready?” He asked. “I guess so, I got this. This is for work. I’ve done this before.” You said to yourself, but Chan of course heard this. His chest tightened at the words of this being just for work. He had always wondered what it would be like to take a girlfriend home with Christmas. Have his family accept her into theirs and to have a great time. Opening presents, eating great food, sitting together and be cute or whatever.

The front door suddenly flung open to reveal a man, who you assumed was Chan’s dad. “What are you two waiting for! Food’s already in the oven, meat is on the grill and the lights are on and ready to be appreciated. Your mother has worked hard on hanging them up. And you must be Y/n.” His dad had a welcoming smile as he brought you into a hug.

“It’s nice to meet you Mr Bang, Chan’s told some lovely things about you.” “I hope nothing too embarrassing, otherwise this evening would be a little awkward.” “Come in! Come in! It’s much more pleasant inside!” You grabbed Chan’s arm softly and followed him inside.

“You will be fine, my family is cool. I promise.” Chan whispered to reassure you. “Is that what you said to every girl you’ve brought home?” You joked whilst giving him a friendly punch. “Let’s just go-“ “Hi! Nice to meet you! You must be Y/n! I’m Chan’s mom.” The woman smiled brightly as she welcomed you warmly as well. It gave you a fuzzy feeling, but that also could’ve been the tiredness from the long flight.

“Come and sit with us.” His mother added whilst leading the two of you to the dinner room, where a younger girl and boy sat, who you assumed where his little brother and sister. “Y/n, these are my younger siblings Hannah and Lucas.” Chan introduced. They greeted you back politely and the evening started. At first, you held yourself back from the conversations and observed the family whilst taking some notes.

Chan noticed you being a little tense or too concentrated in work, so he poked you every now and then to loosen you up. “Chan, I’m trying to work.” You muttered in a whiny tone. “I know, but it’s Christmas and you wanted to experience it the Australian way, so stop writing for a second and enjoy our time together.” Honestly, you should’ve asked for a dollar every time he had made your heart flutter the hours, he had been you, you would’ve been rich by now. You started to engage into the conversation and enjoyed the stories his parents told you from when Chan was younger. You found out that Chan was a Kpop idol and that he hadn’t been home for Christmas for years. You felt bad for Chan that he hadn’t seen his family in so long.

“You never told me that you were an idol! Is that why you were producing on the plane?” “First of all, we met hours ago and yes.” Chan giggled. “Y/n, was Chan overworking himself again. You should tell him that he should keep it easy.” “Overworking? No, we hung out at the airport and he started producing a little, but I have to say that I was working quite some myself. So, I can’t really say anything about it.” You admitted whilst chuckling, making his dad laugh.

“I guess we have two workaholics honey.” Chan’s dad said to his wife. Some more time passed and you all had dinner. His parents were excellent cooks and his siblings made desert for everyone. Ice cream with warm waffles, simple but delicious.

“Oh, I almost forgot. I have brought gifts for you all.” You smiled whilst taking out the bags. “Dear, you didn’t had to.” His mother gasped. “I know, but you are so hospitable and I wanted to show my gratitude for letting a stranger join your Christmas, especially since it’s a special moment that your oldest son is home after so many years around the holidays.” “That’s true, but-“ “Please, just accept them. I bought them right after checking into my hotel.” You laughed before handing the bag to everyone. You held your breath as they all opened their gift. “I’m sorry Hannah and Lucas, I didn’t know what you wanted so I hope a gift card would be fine.” “I-It is- are those number the amount?” Lucas asks with wide eyes when he read the value that the gift card held. “It is!” You chuckled at their shocked faces. “Wow-” “Y/n, this is absolutely gorgeous!” Chan’s mother gasped, whilst holding the necklace in front of her and admiring it. “Y/n, the watch is ravishing.”

You smiled at them in relief before you turned your focus on Chan. “And you?” Chan was holding the bracelet in his hand, staring at it. “I hope you like it. I noticed that you already had some silver ones and I thought this would match, but if you don’t like it you can just say-“ “I love it.” Chan cut you off, looking you seriously in the eye. You gulped and quickly smiled to hide the fact that he was making you nervous.

“Here let me help you.” You took Chan’s hand and placed it in your lap so you could put on the bracelet on him. “Looks good.” You giggled.

The night passed by sooner than you could imagine. The Bang Family were happy to see you and you promised them to send them an early manuscript of the story to get their approval. They trusted you enough to have this information about them as a family.

“Would it be alright then to write about you, since you’re an idol and all?” You asked Chan as he drove you back to your hotel. “I’m sure it will be fine. Besides, they are all good things you will write about us, won’t you?” Chan chuckled as he looked at you with a smug smile, making you laugh. “Of course I will. Your family was indeed lovely. I never knew you were so talented.” The words made Chan physically malfunction at the compliment. “No-“ “Yes! You’re so talented! I mean I haven’t seen that many awards in my entire life! And you did that all by yourself with swimming! And besides that! Your music! Your dad showed me some of your music and it was amazing! I feel almost bad for not knowing you guys. Stray Kids, wasn’t it?” “Stop it, you’re making me blush.” Chan mumbled as he parked the car in front of the hotel.

“Well, we’re here. Thank you for everything. I appreciated and loved every second of being with you and with your family. I also loved having your company at the airport and on the flights.” “We can meet up again if you want to?” Chan suggested whilst, scratching the back of his neck. “W-what?” “I mean, we’re both here for some time and you wanted to see some special spots for yourself that are meaningful to people. And you know me already. I love Australia dearly, especially since I’m not here as much. I could show you around a little. I would love to have you by my side for another thirty hours.” Chan laughed.

You didn’t know what to say and just noticed Chan leaning in closer and closer. Your heart felt like it was throbbing. You started to panic and whipped out your phone, receiving a confused look from Chan. “I- uh- If we should exchange numbers, we can meet up again.” “Right.” Chan laughed before putting his number in your phone, before you put yours in his.

“I guess, I’ll see you around.” “Yeah, I’ll see you again.”

Days had passed and it was now the thirtieth of December. You had gotten some great stories from people you had met.

Right now you were at the beach enjoying the sun when your phone suddenly rang. “Chan?” “I’m sorry for never calling you. My family has been over daily ever since we arrived.” “That’s totally fine. I get that you want to be with them. I’ve been doing well, there are loads of people who I’ve met and gave me inspiring stories. I would love to talk about them to you, but that would cause me a huge phone bill.” “I guess we will have to meet again, where you at right now?” “At a beach café at Manly beach.” “I’ll be there in ten minutes. I finally have some time to how you around.”

Chan arrived sooner enough and you couldn’t fight off the smile that was stuck on your face. “It’s been a long time, hasn’t it?” Chan joked before giving you a hug.

“Shall I show you around then?” “Yes please.” Chan took your hand in his and started to react a familiar scene that happened on the same day you met: he was dragging you around with him.

You didn’t mind.

The longer you were with him that day, the more you realised that you started to have feelings for him. You didn’t know him for that long, but you felt very attracted to him. You even ran into his mom at the mall the other day and she just was speaking so kindly of you. And the fact that she said that Chan couldn’t stop talking about you to his family, made you think even more of him.

Right now, Chan had taken you to a hidden place in the mountains, making you look at him a little sceptical. “You’re not going to kill me, right?” You joked, but feeling a little weirded out. “No, c’mon we have to keep moving. The sun is almost setting and I want you to show it all- watch your steps, we’re moving back down.”

Chan’s hand found his way to your eyes and covered them. “This might be my favourite place in Sydney, besides my home.” Chan admitted, before he removed his hands to reveal a small beach. There was a big tree that hid the beach, making it look a little mysterious, yet romantic.

“How in the world did you find this?” You asked in awe as you admired the view. “One day, I was done with everything. I felt like I needed a break from the world and long story short, I ran away from home. I somehow ended up here and it has been my favourite spot ever since. It gives me a lot of inspirations for music or stories that I’m trying to translate into my music.”

“That’s wonderful! N-not the run away part, but the inspiration thingy.” You laughed awkwardly as you tried to take some more pictures of the view. Chan laughed at how cute you were and started to smile to himself. You noticed him smiling and quickly snapped a couple of pictures of him. You leaned in closer to him to get a better shot of him.

You got surprised when he looked at you through the camera, making silly face that made the both of you fall into a laughing fit.

Suddenly the camera lowered and Chan’s face was the only thing in front of you. Chan panicked and leaned back, trying to sit coolly back, but instead he pressed his hand on his phone, causing it to play music.

A song by Nancy Wilson to be precise.

Maybe it's much Too early in the game Aah, but I thought I'd ask you just the same What are you doing New Year's New Year’s Eve?

Chan gathered all his courage and leaned back towards you. He had been feeling like this the moment he had met you. He felt warm and happy. He felt a sudden adrenaline rush, one that was alike the one he got when he was on stage. And he couldn’t get enough of it. He wanted to be with you more.

He didn’t know where he got the confidence from when he was with you. He felt like a whole different person, yet he felt like he was so comfortable with you. I mean, he brought you to meet his family after knowing each other for what? Six hours?

Chan’s heart was pounding in his chest, he didn’t know where to put his hands, but your cheek seemed the right place for now.

Maybe I'm crazy to suppose I'd ever be the one you chose Out of a thousand invitations You received

His soft hands were cupped on your cheeks and his thumb stroked your face as you looked each other in the eyes. He seized the moment and pressed his lips against yours. His lips were soft and plump against yours. You wrapped your arms around him and brought him in closer.

Aah, but in case I stand one little chance Here comes The jackpot question in advance…

“…what are you doing on New Year’s Eve?” He murmurs against your lips breathlessly. “Nothing much, why?” You whispered back. “Got anyone to kiss at midnight?” He smirked. “N-no what-“ “Wow. You're gorgeous. My new year's resolution is going to be to make you my girlfriend.-“ “Shut up and just kiss me you cheese ball.” You giggle before pressing your lips against his one again. Both having the feeling that this was all meant to be.

Fatemah's Urgent Clothing Shipment to Saudi Arabia: How We Overcame Delays Due to Heat Restrictions

Fatemah's Urgent Clothing Shipment to Saudi Arabia: How We Overcame Delays Due to Heat Restrictions

When I first started working with Fatemah, she told me she runs a high-end clothing business in Saudi Arabia and regularly sources her stock from Guangzhou. She focuses on trendy clothing, so timing is crucial for her orders because fashion is seasonal. Fatemah specifically requested a direct airfreight option to Dammam International Airport, as speed was her top priority. If there were any delays, her customers wouldn't be happy. I assured her that for Sunny Worldwide Logistics, a freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia with 26 years of experience, this would be no problem.

After understanding her requirements for timing, the type of goods, and the destination, I began crafting a suitable plan. Since we offer door-to-door services, I didn’t just focus on airfreight speed but also made sure the local courier service in Saudi Arabia could meet the delivery deadlines. Every step had to be thoroughly planned, as any oversight could cause delays.

Fatemah's shipments always left from Guangzhou, so we initially considered direct flights from major airlines like China Southern Airlines and Air China. We even thought about using Sichuan Airlines, which could fly from Sichuan after transporting the cargo domestically from Guangzhou. Other cities like Xiamen and Haikou also came to mind—Haikou has recently opened more international routes and, as a duty-free zone, it’s becoming a hub for cargo transfers. We also looked into Shanghai, Zhengzhou, and Changsha. As a professional freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia, we always plan for multiple backup options in case of unexpected issues.

Since we’re members of several prestigious logistics associations, like the World Cargo Alliance (WCA), where we hold senior membership (ID 87909), we have access to trusted partners worldwide. These associations help us connect with high-quality freight agents for transfers, which is critical for any freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia. These aren't just any associations—you have to meet strict qualifications to join.

As we continued shipping for Fatemah, various challenges came up. One summer, during a period of extreme heat, Fatemah had a particularly urgent shipment that needed to reach Dammam International Airport as quickly as possible. However, due to the high temperatures, there were weight restrictions on flights.

Airlines often overbook cargo—if a plane can carry 40 tons, they might accept 45 or even 55 tons, just in case some shipments get canceled. In cooler months, this isn't usually an issue, but during summer, weight limits are strictly enforced. If an airline overbooks by 15 tons across three flights in a week, they might end up with a 15-ton backlog.

Unfortunately, Fatemah’s shipment was delayed due to these restrictions. She called me right away, saying, “If this doesn’t arrive in Saudi Arabia on time, you’ll be the one I come after!”

I knew how stressed she was, so I immediately flagged her order as urgent and followed up with the airline. I contacted the person in charge of the CA flight, pushing hard to ensure the shipment got on the next available plane. I also kept backup plans ready, just in case. But the news wasn’t great—many flights were facing similar issues due to the heat.

I explained the situation to the airline, emphasizing that this was a critical order for a long-term client. We had shipped so much cargo with them before, and I asked them to prioritize us this time. The representative assured me they would do their best and promised to get back to me by the end of the day.

Finally, at 5 p.m., I got the confirmation: after thorough discussions, they agreed to prioritize our shipment, guaranteeing that it would be on one of the next two flights. I immediately informed Fatemah, letting her know that we would do everything to get the cargo out within two flights.

After constant follow-ups with the airline and checking the cargo status daily, the shipment successfully left on the second flight!

In fact, industry giants like Huawei, Costco, and SF Express, along with over 100 other major companies, have relied on our services for years. In over 20 years of operation, we have a 99% on-time rate—only extreme circumstances like natural disasters cause delays.

When I shared the good news with Fatemah, she was thrilled. She said, “I had prepared myself to renegotiate with my clients, thinking it was impossible. But your persistence made it happen. I’m truly touched by your dedication—you’re definitely the most reliable freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia!”
