MIRANDA'S POV
The plane smelled of old worn seats and the chicken special that was being served. I never liked flying. The feel of being in the air with my life in the hands of someone else always freaked me out. In order to get through it I always had to go to sleep. But not today, I was finally going home and my body was to over hyped to go to sleep. The stewardess was being attentive to every one, including myself.
"Hello! Would you like to try our chicken special today young lady?" she said.
"No thanks. I already ate." I said.
"Alright, well you let me know if you need anything" she said.
All I could do was nod and smile. Her being so fake was enough to make me nauseous. The way back home was long over due. For the past two years I have been away. Away from my old life, my friends, my school, my everything. Mexico city was great at first. My cousins showed me more than I could have imagined about my wonderful culture. It was exciting to see my parents indulge in their heritage. But the novelty wore off, and I started to miss home. Even though I am Mexican I am still an American. I missed American food, clothes, music, boys, and even school. But the thing that I missed most of all was my two best friends in the whole world, Elizabeth "Lizzie" McGuire and David "Gordo" Gordon. It was hard having to say goodbye to Lizzie and Gordo. I can remember the day I told them I had to leave. Lizzie, Gordo, and I were in my bedroom saying our last goodbyes.
FLASHBACK
"I don't understand why you have to leave" said Lizzie trying to hold back tears.
"My parents said that my grandmother is really sick and we have to leave immediately" I said trying not to cry myself.
"I just don't understand how they can just take you away three weeks before our eighth grade class trip. We have been waiting for this so long! It just isn't fair. Why can't you stay with Lizzie until they get back" said Gordo.
This was weird it almost sound like Gordo was pleading for me to stay. I knew he would be upset but not like this.
"Gordo, I told you, I have tried everything for them to let me stay but it is not working. My parents said we are family and we have to stick together, even if that means I sacrifice my happiness." I said.
"Even if that means you are separated from your best friends" said Lizzie.
" I am afraid so. Look guys I don't want to be sad my last day here. Let's just be together and have fun. We can even play Dwarf Lord" I said jokingly.
"Ouch" said Gordo.
Lizzie and me just bust out laughing. The rest of the night was filled with games, movies, laughter and a little bit of tears, but I still will remember that as one of the best days in my life.
END OF FLASHBACK
I can't wait to get back to Hillridge. Me being away so long is worth me being reunited with Lizzie and Gordo.
Just then the pilot came onto the intercom.
"All passengers please buckle your seat belts. We are about to land in our destination. Thank you for riding American Airlines. Welcome to Hillridge, California. Have a safe trip home."
Home! Thank God I am home. I have been waiting for this for so long now. It's good to be back.
