Fine, I'll admit it, if you really want to hear my opinion, well here goes everything.

I can't take this B.S at this moment, I'm leaving america and going back to my home but i feel like I'm going back to the day my mother died, who knows, maybe ill have run-ins with a couple of ol' friends i can barely remember AND survive long enough to visit my moms grave, boarding the plane, I'm screwed.

(4 yr old Mei) plucks dandelions from the ground "I wish i could get all the wookies from the jar" she blows raspberry in attempt to blowing the fluff off the flower "Humpty dumpty sat on the wall, humpty dumpty had a great fall"  Mei mumbles while she walks home trying to purposely trip.  "MEII, MEIII" -hearing her fathers voice she skips home in a hurry "Yes father?" she gives him an eye roll for disturbing her peace out on the field"Go p-pack your bags" she stares at her fathers hand trembling and climbs up the stairs using her hands and legs. Mei finishes in a jiffy leaving all her junk behind and kept her possessions. Tip toeing to the living room, she peeks at her father that isn't there. She goes around the house calling for her  parents but she doesn't get a call back. Mei opens the door when she hears the doorbell ring and finds her neighbor there looking worried, Her neighbor picks her up and carries her to his car. "Mei, listen to me closely, your father is busy  but he told me to take you to the airport" he grabbed my hand and squeezed it lightly "I love you like my own daughter and want you to know that if you ever come back, ill be the first person you encounter"  ignoring him with slight confusion, he drove to the airport  trying to remain calm but some things are to obvious. They pass the hospital and Mei rolls down her window to get a clear picture of the commotion that was going on there, peering closer, she sees her dad standing close to a stretcher with a familiar woman on it. Mei being the clueless 4 yr old she is, she didn't suspect a thing.

Fast forwarding to the present, Here i am, in a plane that makes me feel like I'm laying on my death bed, HAR DEE HAR HAR.

Not even first class, go figure. Ugh, where are earphones when you need it, while searching my pockets, the plane lady comes up to me looking at me as if i committed a crime.

"Mam, ill need you to put your phone away or else ill have to confiscate it."

Raising my eyebrows, i hoarsely said "Is that a threat? if you need to know, my wifi is on the down low, its barely even on..Mam"

she sticks out her hand and repeats that she'll confiscate it "Mam, I'm giving you a choice so please take it as a consideration instead of being a stuck- up snob."

SHOTS FIRED. I stand up and head to the bathroom just to avoid her wrath and to stop myself from punching her barbie looking face in. As i get up to leave, i hear her mumbling something incoherent.

This isn't the last of Mei, plane lady, watch your cart, might end up splitting you in half. I quietly give out a maniacal laugh which resulted to hiccups.

In the bathroom, i hear the pilot announce that we're near China "Passengers, this is the pilot speaking to you just to say that we're heading towards the landing" I give out a sigh of relief, i would have turned claustrophobic from being stuck in a small, small plane with a brat that can actually be apart of the Bratz Group.

I don't bother looking for my father knowing that he'll probably be trying to score some peanuts from the first class jerks.

HOLY FREAKING MACARONI.

I look around the hotel room shocked, i would want to be be held against my will if it was going to be here i mean, I'm trying to whistle but agh, this place is amazing.

Jumping on the bed, and landing on my back sighing happily.

I call out to my dad to ask him a question "Hey, dad, uh mind if i interrogate you?"

he looks up surprised "uh yeah, one question at a time, there's only so much i can take" he winks playfully but i just shrug it off "Soo um, how'd you afford this?"

he chuckles but when i focus on what his eyes are telling me, it seems that he's hiding something.

"O, this place? well i don't know if you remember him but, Aatami, the neighbor from years ago when we still used to live here, payed for it, we've been close friends ever since the two of us left."

I get a flashback of him sitting through his own personal torture when he'd babysit me while my parents were gone probably running errands.

The shows i watched were babyish but don't blame me, blame the 4 year old me.

I look at my father with sincerity "Did you miss it here?" he looks at me with a grin and answers with a "all that matters is that we're back now" i shake my head laughing, and rubbing my eyes, I ask him the last question of "do you think Mom sees us now?" then I doze off into a deep dream that soon turns into a nightmare i can't wake up from.
