It's now 8am and we are at the airport. I just can't believe it and I won't. At least, not until we're there. Right now we're at the gate waiting for boarding to begin. Boarding, getting on the plane. Then flying to a whole new life.
I have mixed feelings about this. I am partially glad to be getting away from the people who were adding to my misery…even though I deserve it. However, I'm also scared. I don't know what it will be like. How do they act? What should I do to fit in? I know that it sounds stupid, but it isn't to me. I hate being alone. I'm only human…
"Flight 720 direct to Tokyo, Japan rows 15- 39 now boarding. Flight 720 direct to Tokyo, Japan rows 15- 39 now boarding."
That's us. We're row 17. Now I just have to walk over, show them my ticket, show them my ID, and take my final step in the past.
Well, I'm on the plane. It will be ok. I adapt quickly. I...o come on. I'm rationalizing everything. I am scared. I hope it goes ok. This is going to be a long flight.
Many hours later…
The flight was long and uneventful. : Sigh: This is it. The plane was the gateway, neither here nor there. I am about to take my first step into my new life, leaving my past behind.
I'm taking that step. I'm opening my eyes. Whoa. This airport is different. At least before I knew where everything was, but now…
"Come on Kaiya," says my father.
"Alright." I grab my carry on and follow him. At least someone knows where they're going. To sum it all up, we go here, there, and everywhere. Basically, I have no idea where we have gone.
Finally, we managed to get our luggage. Now we have to wait for a cab. And wait, and wait, and wait. Now we have one. That's good. My father takes his luggage and mine. He puts it in the trunk. This is going to be a long care ride…
Ariving...
"Kaiya, wake up. We're here."
"huh?"
"We're here. Now get out. Ok?"
I'm getting up. Well, I'm here. I'm at my new house. It seems like a nice place. The setup isn't horribly different and it's pretty. I think I can learn to live here, but it will never feel like home.
Hi! Sorry there isn't more and that what's here sucks!But I'vegot to go to class now! Thanks. See you later!
