"I'm done with packing!" I call out.
"Ok!"
I don't know why... But I think I'm missing out on something. What is it? It's been 3 days since I started packing. Who knew packing could be so draining?
"Keri! Come here!" I rush down the stairs.
"You forgot to take this."
My family picture is thrusted in my hands. I already have our family photo.
"We need to get going. We just have another hour to get to the airport. Make sure you have packed everything."
"I'm done." Or maybe I'm not done. I don't want to leave this town. All my memories are stored here, good and bad alike. But I have to go. I can't stay here any longer.
I run to my room again. The pain in my chest grows bigger. I'm really leaving.
I take my suitcases down and run upstairs again. I take a good look at my room. Nothing! I've taken everything I wanted from this room. My eyes prickle. Damn.
I check the time. I have to go.
What am I missing out on?
Oh God... Please tell me.
Suddenly my family photo comes in my mind.
I run to my sister's room and there it was!
The blue bracelet.
I clutch it to my heart closely.
Looks like it's my time to wear it.
"Keri! We're leaving!"
"Coming!"
Now I can leave in peace.
