2 Weeks
Chapter 1
Mimi's POV:
Looking
at the luggage I smiled thinking about all of the progress that with Sora over
the past 6 weeks. She had come with
only one large suitcase, a duffel bag, and a cosmetics bag. She was leaving New York with that plus
another suitcase, and my largest duffel.
Glancing down at my watch I saw that it was time for us to leave for the
airport. I had a blast having Sora here
in the States with me. She had come to
go to some fancy tennis camp, but know she and I were going back to Japan and I
would spend the last 6 weeks of my summer over there.
"Sora,
lets go, we're going to miss our flight."
"Hold
on, I'm having a bad hair day," was Sora's response. I smiled at that, I had made a ton of progress with her. I know she wasn't a complete tomboy anymore,
after all she played a sport that required you wear a skirt, still I had taught
her a lot. For example the outfit she
was wearing today, a mini skirt, platform sandals, a halter-top witch showed
off her new bellybutton ring was a tribute to my teaching of how to dress
fashionably.
"Girls
are you ready to go," my father called from downstairs.
"Yeah,
but you need to get Sora's bags," I told him.
Glancing
at Sora I saw her fixing her hair, "Don't worry your hair looks fantastic, Matt
will flip when he sees you." Her
response was a forced smile that she used when she was suppose to smile but
didn't feel like it. If I didn't know
her so well it would look completely genuine.
Then my dad came in muttering something about trunk space and we all
grabbed some bags and headed for the garage.
When we got there daddy had to move all of my stuff into the SUV,
because Sora's stuff wouldn't fit. Sora
helped him, but I just got my nails done, and didn't want a chips in the
polish. Plus mom was telling me all the
things not do in Japan, in the airport, and a million other things to do once I
got there. Once the bags were loaded I
hoped in the car and we were off.
In
they car daddy was telling Sora that her mom had called last night, because her
great aunt Veronica had to go back into chemotherapy and needed some one to
take care of her, so she would be gone for the next two weeks. He said that she had called at like 3 in the
morning because it was an emergency and the time difference. I knew Sora's upset about her aunt, and not
seeing her mom so I knew I would have to cheer her up. Of course she had to be looking forward to
two weeks with out parental supervision. I know I was.
Sora's POV:
I
sighed and sunk into the plane seat.
Man, I hate long flights and this article about this seasons "hottest
eye shadow shades" didn't help pass the time.
Mimi had bought every fashion magazine in the entire airport, read one
page and slept for most of the flight.
At least we would be landing in half an hour. I was really upset about not being able to see mom for two more
weeks. I know Mimi saw the next two
weeks as one long party, but I saw them as making exactly two weeks with out
seeing my mom. The good thing is that I
got to put off telling my mom about the navel ring. Mimi had dragged me into the piercing place so me could "cement
our friendship" with matching rings. I
have to admit that I liked the look of the ring, and I liked having the same
one as Mimi, friendship bellybutton rings.
I also think that Matt will like it.
I have to admit I am nervous about seeing Matt. We were only going out for two weeks before
I left, and we only talked on the phone a hand full of times while I was
away. I mean we wrote emails, but we
didn't talk, not like Tai and I did. I
can't even count the number of times we talked on the phone. Mimi started to suggest that I should dump
Matt and go out with Tai. I did miss
him a lot, and I can't wait to see him.
With a thud the plane landed waking up Mimi. When it stopped we grabbed our carry on bags and walked out to
the gate. Then I saw him.
"Tai,"
I screamed running towards him. I was
really surprised to see him; I thought that we would take a cab home. I laughed as we hugged and he lifted me up
spinning me around. When my feet
touched the ground I took a step back.
With my hands still around his neck and his still wrapped around my
waist we said, "I missed you so much" together. Then I started telling him about New York, and I think he was
talking about being a soccer camp councilor, but I couldn't really tell since
we were talking at the same time. Then
I heard some one clearing there throat really loudly. I turned my head.
"Oh,
um, hi Matt"
