I love you, America

~Intro~
The flaxen haired girl stared in mild amusement at the gray forests outside of her window. The luggage in her arms seemed much smaller than before, with the large oak trees replaced with gargantuan trees of steel and glass. There was no one on the street to sell her breads, or cheese, or even flowers. Every seller was inside their nice, cool boxes of windows and gray. It utterly amazed her how four thousand miles away* from her little home in Germany so much could change. From five or six buildings in one city to at least twenty in one block; New York was quite odd in her opinion.
"Rin, did you get all of your sister's things?"
The twelve year old girl in beside her nodded up at her mother, finally looking away from the scenes around her. Her mother spared a quick glance from her novel to the blonde little girl in the bedding of worn blankets and wool. It was summer, but they needed to make all of their possessions as densely packed as possible, which resulted in two suitcases and a few items in their arms.
As a result, the little infant gave a mix between a giggle and some type of foreign language. Rin couldn't help but to smile at Neru, her little sister, 's innocent behavior. Rin somewhat envied that about Neru. Innocence.
Rin almost jumped out of her seat when the train came to a sudden stop, jerking everyone and everything forward. Rin's mother grabbed her hand and secured Neru into her arms, leading the small family to the exit of the crowded train.** Rin was scared to say the least. The amount of –rather smelly- passengers pushing, shoving, and yelling at each other over whelmed her. She subconsciously tightened her grip on her mother's hand. Within less than ten minutes, Rin was safely off of the train with all limbs still intact. It seemed like somewhat of a miracle to her.
"Ready to see our new house."
It wasn't a question, but Rin nodded anyway, she felt obligated to.
A/N: Yes, the first title was "I love you, America" in German.
I know what you're thinking…
"Damnit Kyuu, WHY THE HELL did you write another incomplete story when you already have about seven up!"
And here's what I'll say: "…Sorry?" –shot-
*The distance is actually, exactly: 3967.455 Miles away, which is 6385.000km. (From Berlin, Germany to New York, USA)
**I never rode(SP?) in a train before so if that's incorrect, please tell me.
