Mrs Nur's POV
World's largest Maglev train
The train just ran at high speed as I caught a glimpse of the Chinese scenery once more. I have never been this up close to the Chinese culture like now! The most exposure I ever got was Chinese New Year until I went on this trip with my students from my school. And today, it's all coming to an end.
Everyone broke out into small groups as they discussed the most memorable parts of the trip, which made my heart swell. It's obvious everyone that chose this trip actually wanted an international trip, and didn't do it for the points or for the prestige. But I was soon joined in by Mdm Yeo who started talking about her experiences coming home, and we had a meaningful discussion on the way to the Beijing airport.
Xingqiu's POV
Beijing airport
Scanning my passport, I had to place my luggage on the conveyor belt as it cruised away. I said bye to my luggage as I left with the group to go through customs and immigrations. As I placed my backpack on the trays provided, I passed by without any mishaps, but everyone wearing metallic glasses and the girls that must pin their hair weren't so lucky. 3/4 of the group found themselves being searched again while I was able to relax by the side with Mrs Nur. Neutral coloured plastic glasses save the day, always!
Leah's POV
At the boarding gate
For the last time before takeoff, everyone was texting their parents and socialising with each other one more time. After all, we were never getting this trip again! I played 2 player games on Crystal's phone, as she spammed the button without a care during Happy Hippos. We were quietly giggling while having fun spamming the button and savouring the last moment before our return flight.
"Attention all passengers. Can we now get premium economy to line up?"
Turning her phone on airplane mode, Crystal beckoned me to join the boarding queue as we got ready to return home.
Simon's POV
Airplane
To my horror, I found myself stuck on the airplane with a total stranger! Xingqiu and Crystal had the opportunity to sit together; so did Leah and Ethan. My stomach formed knots as I tried to ignore this feeling, getting disconnected by Jaws. The flight home shouldn't be too bad if we didn't make any interactions, simply because it's weird for a Singaporean boy to talk to a total stranger. I just watched movies and ate my lunch to stop the feeling.
Crystal's POV
Airport
Collecting my luggage, I bade Ethan and Xingqiu a quick farewell before dashing to the arrival area to the sight of Chloe and Jennifer. Leaping up to them, they welcomed me back as we did a gift exchange between my sounveirs and their gifts they bought for me. Chloe pulled my hand as she fearlessly pulled me to the pick up areas as my chauffeur was awaiting us. As we loaded my luggage in, I was chauffeured into the front seat as I was ready to share with everyone the memories I made over the past five days.
