Her peace didn’t last long. When she turned to check on Shawn, she noticed David tipping a can of energy drink toward the baby’s mouth. Startled, Ava quickly intervened, asking for Shawn back and expressing concern. David brushed off her worries, insisting it was harmless and saying he knew what he was doing. The situation drew the attention of nearby passengers, increasing Ava’s anxiety.
A flight attendant named Susan stepped in, calmly requesting that David return the baby. Ava was then kindly moved to first class for a quieter environment. Grateful and relieved, she held Shawn close as he slowly drifted to sleep. The rest of the flight went smoothly, allowing her a chance to recover from the stressful experience. Later, Ava realized how important it was to trust her instincts and remain cautious, even when someone appears kind.
