All the Beautiful Things
Chapter 4
In all the years Hanna had been alive, she had never really thrown a temper tantrum like the one she threw when her mom was dropping her off at the airport.
After all it was just a little bit of shoplifting and her parents were obviously blowing this way out of proportion. After all they were sending her to her grandmother that lived halfway across the country. This had to be the worst idea ever. Even if Florida tended to be an awesome vacation spot it was still miles away from all her friends and her family. Talk about a cruel and unusual punishment. What had she really done to deserve this?
She sighed in annoyance as she reclined her seat back. If her mother insisted on being the biggest bitch ever than she would gladly do the same.
When they finally made it to the airport, Hanna exited the car in annoyance as she pulled her suitcase from the car. Her mother hadn't even let her pack by herself talk about a lack of trust.
As soon as her mother joined her, Hanna crossed her arms and gave her mom a pointed look.
"Stop it with the pouting Hanna. This is for your own good."
Hanna huffed.
"I don't see how sending me half way across the country is for my own good. Why don't you just admit that you did this because I embarrassed you?"
Her mother shook her head.
"It could have been worse Hanna. You broke the law. Just be glad you're not sitting in a jail cell right now."
Hanna gave another sigh and dragged her suitcase with her as she checked in and located her flight. When they reached the gate, her mother turned to her.
"I hope you learn your lesson on your time away. You might hate me now, but you'll understand why I did what I did soon enough . You're my child and I would do anything to protect you. I love you. Hanna."
Hanna only gave her mother a nod of acknowledgment before she turned away and boarded her flight leaving her mother with only her words to go off of.
