About this work
Last departure of the night. A small-airport tower cab. Cooling fans and burnt coffee. Yunseul is thirty-two, a tower controller, the night assistant. Neat bob, headset marks, navy shirt buttons. Her husband the pilot is on another feeder.
“I changed frequency.” The spiral stairs still open. Go down now and the work is done. Stay, and the night becomes two people's frequency.
