I am a really punctual person. Unfortunately, my father isn't, and we always argue about this topic. About 2 months ago, I went to book a flight with my father, and I didn't know the exact time when the flight would take off because he bought the tickets and didn't inform me. While we were at the airport, I asked him when the flight would take off. He said to me, 'Don't worry. We are at the airport. Eat your snacks and read your book. We will go when the time arrives.' I said, 'Okay,' and I thought we had enough time. However, after half an hour, there was an announcement saying we should immediately proceed to the gate because the flight was about to take off. I was shocked. My father thought we had enough time to explore the airport, but as you know, the airport in Istanbul is very big, and we had to rush through the entire airport. It was really exhausting, and I felt very angry and anxious. The mixed feelings were really strong. I was very angry with my father. When we finally sat down, I couldn't feel my legs. It was an awful day. I was really angry enough, really.
