Anya's POV
The soft hum of the bus engine made me feel at peace. My head looking out of the huge bus windows..."I finally made it" I thought to myself as I admired America stretched out in the colours of green and gold..
endless fields and suburban houses blurred past me,it was slightly chilly out here,the sun about to hit the horizon made the towns look enchanting...it was beautiful,but it wasn't home.
I glanced down at my journal's half filled page-
**August 17th. First day in America.
I'm on my way to aunt rhea's house,somewhere in the middle of...uh nvm (yes,my geography is weak).
So far this country feels loud,cheerful and happy. Everything is big here...buses,cars,building,houses...even the soda cans. I kinda like it,I like the change and yet I miss my home..I can't believe I went on a street food marathon back in India before coming here.**
A sudden jerk of the brakes pulled me out and I realised I was still staring at the half filled page...I gripped my pen again..
**I had goosebumps all over me the entire flight.I was flying miles away from my home,to find freedom finally..not to mention that my mom cried the entire way to the airport,at the end she gave me a lecture on how I'll have to do my dishes on my own even though I had aunt Rhea.**
**My dad just gave me a nod,proud that I was standing on my feet fearlessly but disappointed as I chose a not-so-sensible major (his words not mine). Aarav,my elder brother called me right before boarding,telling me to stay out of trouble like I'm sixteen with some dangerously cool ideas and not twenty.Maybe he should switch roles with my dad**
"He's the best" i mumured under my breath as I realised that the one phone call that my brother gave me just before boarding brought me strength and tearful eyes before leaving...
I quickly kept my sage green journal in my backpack as my stop arrived and walked out of the bus with 2 huge travel bags,struggling but not asking for help..I managed it. My gaze fell on aunt Rhea,her arms wide open for a hug.
