It's early in the morning. Lea and her mom are at the airport. She has one big travelling luggage and a small backpack with her laptop and camera in it. They go to the check-in to leave Lea's luggage.
"Bye mom! - she kisses her mom on the cheek - I'll let you know once I've arrived"
"Have a safe trip, Lea. I love you!"

After arriving at the Airport, Lea still has to catch a bus to Sunnyville. She places her luggage on the compartment under the bus and waits for her turn at the queue.
"Tickets please." - says the driver.
Lea gives her tickets. He then scans the paper and lets her go on the bus. Lea goes up the stairs and checks where her seat is. After walking a bit on the corridor, she sees that the number of her seat is next to a girl. She approaches her and greets the girl before sitting down.
"Good morning." Says Lea
"Hey." The girl smiles.
Lea places her backpack under her seat and plugs in her earphones on the phone. The driver speaks on the microphone:
"Welcome passengers. Please take your seats as we're going to leave now. Thank you! "
Lea smiles, tired, and sends a message to her mom.
"We're leaving now 😘 I'll let you know once I arrive."
She puts on her earphones and rolls down her playlist to choose a song. She finds her favourite music and plays it. The girl next to her looks at Lea's phone.
"Omg. 'Summer' from Calvin Harris is just an amazing song!"
Lea looks at the girl and laughs. "Oh, yeah. It's my favourite!"
"My brother loves it. He keeps playing it all the time during summer. It's quite tiring sometimes..." Laughs.
"It does have a lot of energy to be listening all the time." Lea laughs. "But I kinda needed it right now, cause I was having second thoughts..."
"Second thoughts? About what?"
"Oh, I'm gonna spend summer with my uncle and aunt. I literally just decided yesterday." Lea laughs nervously. "I've never been to their house, so I'm hoping it is not gonna be awkward..."
"I bet they are gonna like to have you there. Actually, all the people in town are fun and nice. I think you will fit well with us."
"Thanks... Hey, I'm Lea by the way."
"Jenny. Nice to meet you!"
"So, how about you? Do you live there?"
"Oh yeah. All my family is from Sunnyville. I'm going to college in Dillford, and as it's my holiday I get to go back home to meet them."
"Really? I am from Dillford! Were we in the same flight and we didn't know?" Both laugh.
Lea and Jenny exchange phone numbers and keep chatting until they arrive at the town. They leave the bus and go pick up their luggage.
"Well, Lea. It was really nice to meet you. If you need anything you can always text me."
"Sure, thanks! See you around."
"Bye!"
Lea looks at her phone. After texting her mom, she checks Uncle Peter's address. It's near the bus stop, so she walks over there in five minutes. Her uncle is waiting at the porch, who welcomes her with a big smile.
