Sope's Girl

Chapter One

I was losing my damn mind trying to remember where I put my phone. I have 2 hours to get to the airport or I was going to miss my flight. Today so I was moving to Seoul, South Korea. I loved traveling and seeing the world for the beauty it is,

I was currently living in New York where I was born and raised but it was dull now and I knew almost everybody and did almost everything so I wanted to travel somewhere new, I couldn't find my phone and I needed to check when my flight would leave. I was currently tearing through my bag when there was a knock on my bedroom door.

"It's open!"

"Maltida perra, no puedes contester tu telefono? (Damn bitch you can't answer your phone?)"

"I'm currently trying to find my damn phone Niema."

"Oh, my bad, well where was the last place you had it?"

"The last place I saw it was when... Mierda! I left it at my mother's house on the table."

"Then we'll just have to go get it right we don't have a lot of time"

Niema was my best friend we been friends since first grade we went to the same schools and everything. We met when some little boy pushed me down for my juice box and she came over and slapped him and told him never put your hands on a queen, we were only 5 years old back then now we're adults and she's still the same, she's like a big sister to me even though I'm older she treats me like I'm the youngest. She grabbed my bag and my hand and dragged me out of the house in the car and basically sped to my mother's house. When we arrived at my mother's I rushed in to get my phone.

"Hola mami, I left my phone and I was coming back to get it"

I shouted through the house not noticing her sitting on the couch.

"No need to yell I'm sitting right here"

"Oh, Hola mami lo siento I didn't see you there"

She got up from the couch handing me my phone.

"I'm going to miss you so much, don't forget to call me every Sunday, okay?"

"I won't mom I promise."

I gave her a tight hug and a kiss goodbye after she made me promise to visit on holidays, she was always like that when I leave on my travels. Leaving my mother's house, we sped to the airport making it there in record time. Upon entering the loading area for passengers Niema was tearing up.

"Vamos nena no hagas esto! (Come on babe don't do this)"

"I'm just gonna miss my mejor amiga dang"

"Yea but now your gonna make me cry like you do every time"

"Serve's you right constantly leaving your best friend behind"

"I love you"

"I love you too. Take care chica and make sure you call me every day, Oh, y por favor consigue un hombre, estás cerca de los 30 y sigues soltero. (oh and please get a man you damn near 30 and still single). That coochie meow meow ain't gonna stay young forever"

"Bye Nie I'll call you when I land"

"Bye"

Niema left and I waited in line as everyone started to board the plane. I gave the woman at the desk my ticket and boarded the plane. Here's to new beginnings.

Waking up to slight turbulence meant my plane was getting ready to land. I grabbed my baggage at baggage claim thank God I took multiple languages in high school and college, or I wouldn't know what to do. Searching through my phone for the email holding all my information for my new apartment and when my things will arrive, I halted for a cab to take me to my new home. Upon arriving I met up with my new landlord and went over a few details, you know what's allowed and what's not allowed if I could have pets or not stuff like that. After we were done, I was left in my new empty apartment my stuff won't be here for a few more days so I guess I can stick it out or go to a motel. I thought long and hard and decided to go to a motel for a few days just until my things arrive. I found a nice motel a few blocks from my apartment, so it was very convenient. After checking into my room I called my mother and then I called Niema to let them know I landed safely and that I loved them Niema tried to keep me on the phone but I was too tired to have any conversations jetlag was no joke and with that I took a shower and went to bed definitely gonna sleep in tomorrow...
