you've been walking for so long. who knew that the subway station was so far from your house?
tired, you stop to sit down on a bench by the park. the sun had started to set, and you saw a few people walking, either alone or with someone else, holding hands.
what you also see is a family. they're all sitting down on a blanket, having a picnic. there were two loving parents, and two girls. one seemed older then the other.
you watch as the younger sibling brings her sister a dandelion, and gives her a hug. you smile to yourself, visualizing those two as you and lydia.
"ugh, enough about lydia, bethany and mark will be home soon!" you scold yourself.
you take your bags, and head straight to the subway. you get in, and wait until the subway reaches the airport.
30 minutes of weird stares, crying babies and nonstop calls from everyone you knew later, you made it to the airport.
it's 10:30 pm. the next flight to north carolina was in two and a half hours. but, you realized. you were only 14. how would you get on the plane without a chaperone?
you look around, and find someone pretty trustworthy to ask if they could help you. you built up your courage, and asked.
"excuse me, miss?" you tap lightly on her shoulder.
she looks up at you from her phone. "oh! are you lost?"
"no, no, i'm not lost. i need to get to north carolina, but i'm 14." you explain.
"oh. so, what did you tap me on the shoulder for?" she raises an eyebrow.
"if i pay you, will you pretend to be my aunt?" you ask her.
she thinks for a while, then makes up her mind.
"fine, i'll do it." she shrugs.
your face lights up. you were happy that your plan worked out just fine.
"oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!" you say in gratitude.
the two of you walk up to the ticket desk, and get your tickets. it was great that the lady was willing to pay for her own. the both of you combined your money and paid the guy for your tickets.
once your flight is called, you quickly get your tickets checked and head into the plane. there, you could see people walking to find their seats, toddlers throwing tantrums over window seats, and people shoving their bags in the overhead bins.
you find your seats and sit down. while you wait for the flight to start, you check your phone one last time. bethany had gotten home, and she was furious.
you didn't care not one bit. you were finally free from those monsters.
the flight was about to take off, and the airplane crew was demonstrating safety rules. once that was over, the plane was lifting off the ground, flying high in the sky.
goodbye, cedar rapids.

(huge timeskip to when they arrive in north carolina because im lazy as frick)
before heading off on your own, you hand the lady $150 as promised. she takes the money and puts it in her purse.
"pleasure doing business with you, kid." she smiled.
you say nothing and walk off to one of the convenience stores in the airport. you grab your favourite snacks and drinks, then walk to the register.
