I've completed all the procedures at the security checkpoint.
In the bustling environment, I'm wearing a lavender top, black jeans, and comfortable shoes. Sunglasses shield my emotions as I sit cross-legged, backpack slung over my shoulder, a stylish band adorning my hand, waiting for my flight.
The announcement over the airport PA (Public Address) system stated, "Ladies and gentlemen, we would like to inform passengers traveling to Dubai that flight (Emirates Airlines) EK 215 is now boarding at Gate B14. Please have your boarding passes and passports ready for inspection. Passengers requiring additional assistance or those traveling with young children may now begin boarding through the priority lane. Thank you."
As I heard the announcement, I made my way to EK 215, completed the necessary procedures, and took my seat. Excitement for Oxford filled my heart. As the flight started, a nostalgic feeling for my family grew stronger. The plane ascended, and soon the clouds hid Indonesia from view. In a fraction of a second, a flood of beautiful memories crossed my mind: the faces of my family, the cozy nook where I dreamed all this, the swing, the beach.
I read the letter which is given by my brother.
Dear Anna,
I just hide my feelings for you. I'm gonna miss you a lot. I don't want to hurt you with my feelings. This is the way to chase your dreams. Remember, whether you're happy or sad, in storm or rain, thunder or sunshine, joy or sorrow, success or failure, calm or chaos, laughter or tears, always hold on to hope and keep moving forward. I, your brother, am always by your side in support. Never ever give up. You are the best role model for me, Anna. The things I've learned from you are countless. Your determination, aspiration, and passion for everything leave me stunned. You are an amazing sister, my dear Anna!!!
As you step into this new chapter, know that my heart is filled with pride and admiration for you. The memories we've shared, the late-night talks, the dreams we've discussed together—they will always remain close to my heart. I believe in you, Anna, more than words can express. Remember, even when we're miles apart, my thoughts and love are always with you. You are not just my sister but equal to mom. Keep shining, and let your light guide the way. I love you more than you can imagine. Let the journey Begin!!!
My eyes filled with tears of happiness. He never shares these kinds of emotional things with me. This is the first time I can't control my feelings. I grabbed my phone and texted him.
Dear Ryan,
Thank you so much for your beautiful words. Reading your letter brought tears to my eyes and warmth to my heart. Your support means the world to me. I’m going to miss you too, more than words can say. The memories we’ve created and the bond we share are irreplaceable. Your constant support have been my rock through everything. Remember that you are a huge part of who I am today. Your kindness, strength, and love inspire me every day. No matter where this journey takes me, you will always be in my thoughts and in my heart. We might be apart physically, but we are always together in spirit. I promise to hold on to hope and keep moving forward, just as you advised. Thank you for being the best brother I could ever ask for. I love you more than you’ll ever know.
I look out the window, retrieve my headphones, and start playing 'Unstoppable' by Sia,
I'm unstoppable
I'm a porshe with no brakes
I'm invincible
Yeah I win every single gaeme.....
