It all started at the LAX airport when I decided to grab a bite in the first-class lounge. Little did I know that my lunch companion would be none other than Russell Crowe. It was awkward for us both, as I had just seen his latest movie and wasn’t exactly a fan. Before I could escape, he started talking to me about the “injustice” of it all.
I was in no mood for a debate, but before I could escape, things got heated, and we started bickering. It wasn’t long before we exchanged choice words, and it looked like things were about to get physical.
I was ready to throw a punch, but before I could, Russell stopped me and said, “Let’s just sit down and talk this out. I think we can both learn something from this.“
Surprised by his sudden change of heart, I agreed and sat down and talked. We talked about our differences and similarities, and before long, I realized that I had much more in common with Russell than I thought I would. We talked for hours, and before we knew it, we were best friends.
We’ve been inseparable ever since, often seen together at the airport lounge. We don’t always agree, but we’ve learned to accept our differences and learn from each other.
So the next time you’re at the LAX first-class lounge, don’t be surprised if you see me and Russell laughing and sharing stories. We may have started as strangers, but now we’re like brothers.
