"Ahh Cairo. The River Nile, the crazy traffic," She paused to take a deep breath. "And the dusty polluted air. Yep, I didn't miss it."
"Will you stop your dramatic monologue and move out of the way?! These bags are heavy." Jungkook complained as he shoved her to the side. She stuck her tongue at him then moved to stand next to him on the pavement outside the airport. "Also it's not so bad here. The food is bomb."
"That I agree. But I still prefer Korea."
"No shit. When are your parents coming anyway?"
"Oh, mom sent a driver to pick us up. She's with dad in Alexandria now because of some work he has, so we'll stay in a hotel for the night. They'll be back tomorrow."
They stood in silence as they waited for the driver to arrive. Jana took the chance to look around. She might have complained about coming back, but she was actually excited to visit her home country. She missed the food, the vibe, and the place over all. But what she was most looking forward to was seeing her father again after two years. She picked up her phone when she heard it ding.
"Oh, Jungkook. Mira just texted me. She's just around the corner, I'll hang out with her for a bit. Do you want to come?"
"Oh, hell nah. I don't want to see her ever again."
"Oh come on, it's been two years already."
"No way. That creature stole my banana milk. That's a crime I can never forgive."
"You're the one who cheated though."
"It's not my fault that she sucks at MarioKart!"
"Come on, don't be lame."
"Nope."
They were interrupted by the sound of a car honking and pulling up in front of them. The driver had arrived and stepped out to help them place the luggage in the trunk.
"Now, if you'll excuse me. I'm gonna order some Koshary and lie in bed for the rest of the day. We were in that plane for fifteen hours and the jet lag is killing me."
And with that, he told her to have fun and went on his way. Jana waved as the car disappeared then walked to the area her friend was parking in. Not long after, she spotted a figure leaning against a black Ferrari. There stood a tall, tanned girl with long dark hair and deep black eyes. Her baggy jeans nicely hugged her long legs and matched well with her white crop top and red bomber jacket as her sunglasses rested on the top of her head. Yup, that was Jana's rich friend, all right. She was scrolling through Instagram until she noticed Jana pacing towards her.
