Truth be told

7

As I slowly open my eyes, and blink away the sleep from them, my dreams of sunshine and lollypops drift from my mind. I wonder how long I had been sleeping. From the look of the sky it seems to be about 7:00 at night. I slowly sit up trying not to hurt my legs and turn to Ma.

" Where are we?" I ask.

" We are about twenty minutes from England now!" Ma squeaked.

" How long have I been sleeping?" I question.

" Well honestly not that long. You have been out for about an hour." Ma answered.

I turn forward to face the seat in front of me and start thinking to myself. My thoughts are interrupted when a muffled voice says that we are about to land in the England airport.

" Oh my goodness!" Ma shrieked. "We are actually here!All that waiting and now we are here! Angelica aren't you happy?

" Um. Well I'm happy to be able to get off the plane." I say nervously

" What! Your not happy we are in England? England Angelica. England!" Ma repeated.

" Okay fine. I'm a little happy to be in England." I say to make Ma shut up.

Me and Ma walk down the isle to get to the door of the plane and I am just dreading every moment. I don't want to be on the plane anymore, but I would rather be on the plane heading back to my home in Victoria, than getting off a plane in England.

When me and Ma get off the plane and out of the air port, there is a taxi waiting to take us to our house. As we walk over I see Ma smiling like a child that got a giant lollypop.

"Hello sir. I would like to go to 1946 sunflower avenue." Ma says in her best English accent.

" Alrighty mam. Can do." The taxi driver says." Here we go."

" Eek! Angelica look at the scenery!" Ma squeaked.

" I am." I say in a sad, tired voice.

" I can't believe that we are actually here Angelica. It's so exciting." Ma says before I stop paying attention.
