This was going to be
the best summer ever! I was going to a top of the line boarding
school with the
best teachers, the coolest classes, awesome rooms,
and most importantly a library stocked with
books, books, and more
books. Reading is a passion of my life. I haven't read very much
lately
because I have already read all of the books in my house from
old war stories to my mom's
cookbooks! Like I said, this was going
to be the best summer ever!
"I can't believe you want to go to this boarding school and leave all of your friends here, including me!"
"I know Chandra, but
this could be a very good opportunity for me to get into a good
college, and I
want to go really bad." I said with a hint of
annoyance.
"Fine, but you have to promise to write every week Ella Elizabeth Tunstile!"
I could see the tears
swelling up in her face, and I ran to her to give her a big bear hug.
Kind of like the
ones your grandmas give you when they haven't seen
you in a while (and by a while I mean a week)
"oh
I gotta go its 4:30, and my mom needs me home to help her clean the
house for when my relatives
come over. I'll miss you so much!"
Chandra said.
As she walked out the
door I realized how much I would miss her. I packed all of my clothes
into my
8 duffel bags and suit cases. I also packed some essentials
like make-up, jewelry, hair scrunchies, and
stuff like that. I also
put on my aunt's necklace. She had given it to me just before she
died two years
ago. We were really close, and my mom and her were
best friends. I saw her all of the time so that's
one of the main
reasons we were so close.
The traffic was all
backed up from my house to the airport. "It's 6:27! The plane
leaves in 3 minutes!" I said.
We rushed to the
docking area after we had gotten our bags checked and I kissed my mom
goodbye."I'll miss you. Call me to tell me if your ok. If you
want to come home just call and ill be there in amatter of minutes!"
My mom exclaimed trough tear-filled eyes.
"Mom I'm not going
to be gone that long just a year then in the summer I'll see you
again and I can
come home for Christmas! Stop crying you're going
to make me cry too!"
"I'm sorry honey.oh you better get going, you're going to be late. Love you call me when you get there."
I walked onto the
plane anticipating what was going to happen when I got there. I
looked around the
plane wondering how many of these people were
actually going to the Archaway boarding school with
me. I decided to
listen to the music I brought with me. I lay back into the seat and I
closed my eyes.
I felt the plane
shake, and I popped open my eyes. People were screaming and running
to the back of
the plane. I sat up and looked around to find out
remotely what was going on. Then I looked out the window.
