Fast forward one month she's at the airport in Oslo with her parents ready to enter the airport. For the first time without her parents she's flying alone which is very nervewrecking in her mind. What she's stressing the most about is her host family not recognizing her and if it'll be awkward when she gets at their house.
Shes said goodbye to her family and went in to the airport. It was still a good 1 hour until boarding. So she went to the bathroom first to check if she looked fine after crying nonstop on her way here and while saying goodbye.
Anita's pov I guess I look fine but oh well. I'll just retouch my makeup a little bit I put on some lip oil and setting powder alongside some bronzer and highlighter. My outfit hopefully is fine. I'm wearing(the outfit in the picture) with some Valentino sneakers and I brought with me a coat by design by si if gets cold which it probably will because air planes are so cold for no reason

- I've finally landed and I've gotten my luggage. As I'm walking out of the airport I see many people so many I think I'm getting dizzy. There's many people who are holding posters with names on. I search for one with my name on but I can't seem to find any...until.
I saw a tiny woman with man and a way younger woman. Must be their daughter, she doesn't look any older then 23 I hope. I walk towards them and they quickly recognize me thank God.
-ohhh you must be Anita right? Asked the youngest one while getting eight in front of me -yeah that's me
I answer honestly I don't know how to talk to them but they don't look scary they look very nice they seem like some very kind people.
-we are Pablo and Gavinin we are you're host parents for the next many months The man introduces himself and his wife
As for the girl i don't know her name yet
-Oh and I'm aurora She kindly says to me
-so nice to meet you guys, thank you very much for taking me in for the next to years. It really means a lot
I say to them so they are aware of my appreciation
- We arrive at their house and oh my god was it beautiful. It wasn't very modern like a villa but a big house that has that very Spanish vibe to it. Once we got inside and sat down in the living room they started talking.
-we have another child he's 1 year older than you. His name is Pablo I assume he's at practice right now. He might come home in 40 minutes I think. You two can get to know each other then.
They have a son?
-ohh what kind of practice? I ask Gavinin
-oh just football. When I tell you football is his life I'm not joking. She laughs
-seriously I love football. Football is my life. Do you guys like football?
-
So I found out they have a son whose a year or two older than me, he plays football and I most likely will have the best exchange year here in Barcelona with this amazing host family.
I packed out my things and decorated my bedroom with whatever I took with me. I of course couldn't take with me my whole bedroom to make my new bedroom here identical to my bedroom at home.
I don't really think that Auroras parents have any special plans for today but we'll see. I go downstairs to the living room where I see Aurora sitting and watching tv.
Gavinin is in the kitchen making lunch.
-do you need any help? -oh no but if you'd really like you can help me. She kindly answered. Who ordered her to be so adorable and kind. I hope her son is as kind and bubbly as her.
Me and Gavinin were finally done making lunch. We made Gazpacho and salat and other veggies. This was the first time I've made that. But it was okay since Gavinin helped me so much with making and understanding it.
Gavinin said she could clean the kitchen and that I could go and relax. I went to the living room but Aurora and Pablo wasn't there. I guess Aurora went to go shopping I guess and Pablo problem went grocery shopping or they went together honestly I don't kn-
Before I could babble more in my head the door opened and a boy who looked like he was a little older and taller than me came in. A gigantic bag on his back he was soaking in sweat and he had Barca training kit on.
We made eye contact and suddenly everything else became blurry. The air was tense but not in a bad way until Gavinin came and saw her son finally came. She embraced him with a hug and a kiss on both his cheeks. Seeing him blush made me giggle but stop when he gave me a little glare that wasn't anything serious.
-Anita this is my only son Pablo. She introduced me to him. She saw my slightly confused face when I realized that both her husband and son had the same name.
-yea they have the same name but we just call him Pablito or Gavi so both Pablo's don't get confused.
-Awe Pablito such an adorable nickname. I was honest it was an adorable nickname I wouldn't complain if I had such a cute nickname.
-I know right yet he doesn't like being called Pablito. But how bout you go and shower and then get to know Anita more since she'll be living here the next 2-3 years?
-2-3 years?????. Pablito answered in shock.
-Anita will explain everything after you shower, right Anita? Gavinin said.
-uhmn yeah. I answered unsure.
- OK NEXT CHAPTER THEY WILL ACTUALLY SPEAK TO EACH OTHER
