I walked out into the driveway, turning around to see what was now an empty white painted house. Two big suitcases in my hand. I grabbed the handles and walked towards the taxi waiting in front. The click clacking sound of heels behind me. I looked behind me and saw my mum, she was wearing a blue jumper with washed out blue jeans and black heeled sandals. "This is it." She said looking at me. I nodded in response and looked at my old house. The house I grew up in, the house filled with memories, both good and bad, both that left me feeling pain and yet happy.
I found myself sitting in the taxi, my seatbelt on and my had rested against the window. I looked at my palms and decided to take my phone out my pocket. I took my phone out and saw that I had 20 unread texts. I unlocked my phone and read all the "goodbyes", all the "have a safe flight" "have a safe trip", all the "I'm going to miss you". I knew that half of these texts were fake. I decided not to reply and if they asked why say that my phone died. I checked the time on my phone and it read 4:22am. I sighed and closed my eyes, leaning back onto the leather seats and drifting into sleep.
I felt a touch on my arm and a voice telling me to wake up. Slowly, I opened my eyes and looked around to see my mum standing on the pavement with our luggage. Yawning, I got out of the taxi, making sure I looked behind to see if anything had fell out of my pockets. "That will be £64" the taxi driver said*. My mum opened her bag and took the money out and gave it to the taxi river. "Thank you" my mum said to the driver. The driver took the money and gave my mum £6 change back. "No problem, I hope you both have a very safe journey." The driver said as he started engine. He waved us good bye and took off. "Well then" my mother said to me as she grabbed two luggages, and I grabbed the other two. We both walked into the airport, I followed my mum to the Virgin Atlantic airline desk. I got my phone out and checked if the airport had free WIFI cause hey I'd rather use free WIFI then waste my data, luckily there was free WIFI for an hour. I went on Snpachat, and I took a picture of the Virgin Atlantic board and put the plane and peace sign emoji on it and posted it on my story and then I did the same on Instagram. I checked the time and it read 5:49am, the flight was at 7:20am. I looked up to see the lady at the desk calling and then I looked at my mum who was busy on her phone. I tapped my mum and she looked at me, I pointed to the desk and she said "Oh sorry" We made our way to the desk, my mum took out our passports and handed it to the lady. My phoned buzzed in my hand, I looked at it to see what it was. It was a message from an unknown number on WhatsApp, I unlocked my phone and went on to WhatsApp. It read "Hey, this is Jason, Lucy's son. My mom gave me your number and your mom's cause I'm going to pick you up from the airport. My mum said she's not sure if she's gonna make it, but she'll try. I texted your mom as well. I hope you have a safe journey!" Why couldn't Lucy text herself? What time is it in Sacramento? I thought to myself. I replied back saying "Hey, I'm Sriveena and oh okay, thanks for telling me. I'll see you when I get to Sacramento"
I locked my phone and put it back in my pocket. I looked back at my mum and saw her putting tags on our hand luggage. I grabbed my bag and followed my mum. "Okay so right now it's 6, let's go the toilet and then security" she said looking at me. I simply nodded, readjusting the strap of my backpack.
We were now at security, I grabbed two trays and me and my mum put both of our stuff in the trays. We walked through the metal detectors and grabbed our stuff on the other side. It was 6:37am. Our gate closed at 7:05am. We checked were our gate was and saw it was all the way on the other side of the airport, there was no time to look around. "Mum, we need to hurry" I said.
"This is the last call for flight VA7376 to Sacramento, California. Will all passengers please board before the gate closes in 4 minutes".
