thirty-four

    Aliyah was nervous but she was also excited. She felt like she was ready to start something new in her life and that part included Matt. Van told her everything she needed to hear last night and Aliyah doesn't know why, but it opened her eyes. Now, it's the next morning and she put on her best disguise so no paparazzi would see her and ruin the surprise by posting it all online.

She sat in the cubicle that was in first class, watching "Modern Family" and eating Cheezits out of the family size box. She was comfortable but was a little anxious. She had butterflies in anticipation. She was making a big gesture to show that she truly does care about Matt and that she is ready. Once the fourth hour hit, Aliyah was getting sleepy so she closed the box of Cheezits, shut off her tv show that played on her IPad, and started to play music to help her fall asleep.

    She fell asleep in 15 minutes.

    After a three hour nap, she was awaken by the fight attendant saying to fasten their seatbelts and get ready for landing. She did what she was told and put everything in her backpack so she can just rush off before she's stuck in a huge line. She was lucky enough and got the first cubicle so she was right by the exit. After some turbulence, they finally landed and Aliyah practically sprinted out the exit to find a bathroom since she hated airplane bathrooms.

    She looked in the mirror after she went to the bathroom and saw her face. She mentally laughed at her disguse which was sunglasses and concealer on her eyebrows so far away, it looked like she had none. She reached in her backpack and took a makeup wipe to rub off the concealer so she looked normal. While she was doing that, she realized that she didn't know where she was going. She's never been to the triplets house in Boston so she had to ask Alex to send her the address.
