"Flight A2A, China, please go to Gate 2. Thank you" I hear the women behind the speaker say, I smiled as I grabbed the handle of my suit-case as I look back to a group of people who I call my family.

"This is my flight," I said as I turned fully around to face them, "bye, I'm going to miss you."

Good luck on your journey Brittany," my little sister said as her brown eyes turned watery, hey she was only four years old and her sister will be gone, God knows how long.

I knelt down to her level and gave her a long bear hug "I'm going to miss to miss you Mushi," I said as I felt her sob on my shoulder lightly.

"Yeah and who is going to be with me when I need a talk?" My other sister replied but unlike Mushi, she didn't even hold back her tears as she let them fall down her cheek freely, even though she's eleven years old, she's a five year old at heart.

"Hey you still have Abby," referring to our friend, as I moved on to Kuki as we both come to a hug, "I'm going to miss you too, and you're crying," I said with a smile as her nick-name is 'baby-cry.'

"And when is it my turn to get a hug?" I turned to my brother, Kyo, who was like my twin brother who shares the same birthday as me, but I was adopted in this family when I was four.

"Don't worry you were next," I answered as I rushed to him and gave him a hug. "I think I'm going to miss you the most," I whispered so no-one could hear as I get an "Me too" from him.

I moved to my mum and dad as they looked at me with worry all over their eyes "You'll be careful now, you hear," my dad said as the three of us went into a group hug.

"You call us when your in China," my mum demanded as I nodded when we let go.

"Last call for flight A2A, China, please go to Gate 2, Thank you." I heard as I said my last goodbye, I rushed to my plane.

Once I got on the plane I was think about China. How many people are coming? Will I get along with them? Will I enjoy it? But what's most important is, why me?

I am Brittany Sanban, known as Avril, I live in Australia and i was adopted by a rish Japan family.
