Hey everyone! I'm glad to see most readers went in and took the poll!
^_^ And the majority voted for Mariah/Emily, so that's what it will
be. I'm sorry to those who wanted Mariah/Oc. Well I hope you all like
the newest chapter!
I pull my suitcase from out under the airplane seat. The little boy
next to me is jumping up and down with excitement.
"Come here, Jimmy". A women approaches and scoops up the little boy in
her arms.
A man, which I assume is the father, comes up next to his wife. He
kisses the little boy's forhead and then takes his wife's free hand in
his own.
I smile, thinking that could be our future. What would our children
look like, Rei? I bet they would have your smile and sense of humor.
Your beautiful appearance. Our family...
I drag my suitcase across the worn out floor of the airport.
Where do I go from here? I'm in America..but I have no idea where Rei
is. I don't know if I can contact the BBA and ask. Would they give out
the information? What if there are always fans trying to find out..and
they won't believe me when I tell them I am Mariah.
I try to mask my fear by looking around the airport pretending to be
curious. Well, okay, I am curious. I haven't been in America before.
There is so much to see, all these new things, all these sounds to
swallow in.
Rei I have to find you! All I know is that your somewhere in
California.
I growl in frusteration. I am going to need a cab, a place to stay. I
reach into my pocket and pull out the small bundle of money.
A few twenties...like that will get me anywhere. I sigh, knowing that
this is going to be difficult.
And yet..I'm ready for it. I don't need to depend on Lei, or my team.
I don't need to depend on the BBA. I will pay for myself, work for
myself.
I go outside and wave down a taxi. One swerves to the curb and I open
the door and sit down.
"Where to, Miss?" The cab driver asks.
I bite my lip, and look out the window. Where am I going?
"Where is the nearest hotel?" I ask meekly. I feel lost, like the
whole world outside of me is spinning. I rest my head in my hands as
the cab lurches forward.
I look out the window, staring in awe at the towering sky scrapers.
This world I'm looking into, is a collage, a work of art. It's so
different from China. I love it here already.
The taxi stops and let's me out onto a sidewalk. I place the money in
his hands and pull my suitcase out of the car.
I turn around and my face immediately drops. I am met with a tattered
motel, with the lights on the sign blinking on and off. The parking
lot is almost empty and I can hear a dog's bark from one of the
nearby rooms.
I want to cry. My insides feel like bursting, and I kneel down to the
dirty cement and place a hand to my eyes. How can I pretend to be
strong, when I am weak?
Rei you'll make this all better. Everything will be okay again.
I walk into the main lobby and ask for a room.
[I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live to breathe
you're taking over me]
I wander into my room, 227, and open the door. The stench of
cigarretes float across the room towards me and I rush over to the
window and jerk it up. The window creaks slowly open and a siren is
heard in the distance.
[have you forgotten all I know
and all we had?
you saw me mourning my love for you
and touched my hand
I knew you loved me then]
I take a deep breath of the fresh air before returning to the other
side of the room and pull my suitcase beside my bed.
[I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live to breathe
you're taking over me]
I lay down on the bed and tuck my face into the pillow. The tears are
soaked up by the cloth. I let them stream down my face, creating a
river of emotions.
[I look in the mirror and see your face
if I look deep enough
so many things inside that are just like you are taking over]
The I remember...I will not cry for you. I will not cry.. I have
worked to hard to get here, and this is what I wanted.
Everything will be okay tomorrow...
Hey guys, a nice new chapter. I know it wasn't my best but I have a
wicked writer's block. And there was a song in this chapter, and it
wasn't mine so I thought I'd clarify that. Well guys, hopefully my
writers block will pass and I can do some better writing. Please do
review!
Tootles til then-
