Road To Success

Chapter 21

We walked for a few minutes, I had no idea where Roman was bringing me.

" Almost there. " Roman said.

I followed him. Ahead I saw a park. Roman crossed the street and I followed. We stepped foot on the freshly cut grass. In this state, snow has been gone. Roman lead me to an ice cream stand. We ordered some vanilla ice cream and walked around the park. I sat down on a swing, licking my ice cream. Roman stood beside me.

" It's really warm here. " I said.

" Yeah. " Roman replied.

" I totally forgot about Raw. Speaking about Raw, weren't you suppose to get on a bus and drive to the other arena? " I asked.

" Yeah, but I stayed here. I wanted to know that you would be alright. "

" That's nice, but you should have went. I could've texted you. "

" No, I wanted to know up front. "

" Oh. Well, imma have to fly home sometime soon. Won't be seeing you, Dean, and Sami for a while. "

" Yeah, I know. But it's good to take a break. "

" Yup. " I finished the last of my ice cream. Roman finished his. We threw our garbage away and walked to the hotel. Which wasn't to far.

" When will you be leaving? " Roman asked.

" I was thinking today. You and the others will have to travel somewhere else. I figured I should travel home then. "

Roman nodded and pushed the elevator button. We went up.

" So, you will be leaving soon. "

" Yeah, I'm just going to pack my stuff and head home. "

" Do you want me to drive you to the airport. I got a rental car the other night. "

" Yeah, that would be nice. I'll call you when I'm ready to go. "

Roman nodded. I went to my room and quickly packed my stuff. I looked forward to go home. Visit some friends. Though, I would miss the guys. We can always face time. I pulled out my phone and texted Sami and Dean. Telling them that I would be going home, and that I would text them soon. Maybe even Skype or oovoo. Whichever works better.

I then took a shower, put on some comfy clothes and waited for my hair to dry. I then texted Roman that I'm ready and leave.

" We can use an app to Facetime. Like Skype or Oovoo. " I told Roman.

" That would be cool." Roman said. Pulling up to the airport. I got out the car and opened the trunk. I pulled out my luggage with the help of Roman. He closed the trunk and led me inside.

I held my ticket, and dragged my luggage along with me. Roman carried one of my bags. We walked to the counter and placed my luggage on the table. I gave the woman my ticket and got my luggage back.

" Bye. " I told Roman.

" Bye. "

I hugged him tightly.

" See you soon. " I said.

We pulled away and I walked into the plane. I placed my luggage above my seat and sat down by the window.

I pulled out my headphones from my bag and plugged them into my phone. I went to my music and played my playlist. I looked out the window and enjoyed the beautiful view.

                           *                 *                    *

" Welcome to Los Angeles California! Hope you had a wonderful ride. " A lady said, her voice coming out of the speakers.

I stood up and rubbed my eyes. I have been asleep when the plane had landed. I stood up and got my luggage from above. I set them down on the floor and dragged them out with me. I stepped down the stairs and walked down the path. Out of the airport.

My house wasn't too far from here, probably like five or seven miles. But too far to walk. I pulled out my phone and called my favorite taxi gal. She's hilarious and really nice.

" Hey, Hillary. I need a ride, hope you're free. " I left a voicemail.

I sat down on the bench outside. If she wasn't available, she will call her partners.

I played around with my hair, braiding it and unbraiding it. I turned on my phone and made a group chat. Roman, Dean, Sami, and I.

Hey guys!  Made it to sweet Cali. Just waiting for the taxi to arrive. What y'all up to?

Few seconds later Sami answered.

What's up!? At the gym.

Awesome, wish I could go to the gym. I have to go home and unpack my bags. I replied.

You can go when you're done maybe.

Probably, only if it's not dark out.

I looked up, Hillary was pulling up. I stood up and grabbed my stuff.

" Sup Suzie. Long time no see, what have you been up to? "

" I got into WWE. Started fighting, then this happened. "

" Ouch, who did it?"

" No one... "

" So you're telling me that nobody did that to you... "

" Yup.. "

" Then how did it happen?"

" Just an accident during a match. " I closed the trunk and opened the passenger seat.

" Yeah, sure. Whatever you say. "

Hillary closed the drivers seat and turned on the car. She pushed the gas pedal and the car moved forward.

" What have you been up to? "

" The usual, drive people. " she replied.

I nodded, " Cool. "

Hillary laughed, " No, not cool. More like boring. "

" If you don't like your job, why are you still in it? "

" I dunno, it's just an easy job. I earn money easily. Though, I get tired of seeing the same rodes and being stuck in traffic. "

" Oh. "

We didn't talk for the rest of the ride, she drove to my house. Already knowing where my house is.

She parked at the front and I opened the door. I got out the car and went to the back, taking out my stuff. I closed the trunk and walked up to Hillary.

" Thanks for the ride, how much will it be? " I asked, pulling out my wallet.

" Nothing, welcome back Suzie. See you soon. " She hugged me.

" Thanks, bye. " I replied.

I turned around and walked up the sidewalk up to my door.

I entered my house and closed the door behind me, and started unpacking my stuff.
