Dreams come true

Monday Morning

So mum, Nathan, Layla, Travis and I get up get ready and are out the door by 9:30. It takes us about half and hour to get to the international Perth airport so while that's happening I put in my earphones and listen to back to black by Amy Winehouse but a cover from santana lopez.

All of a sudden my music stops and I hear my phone ringing. It's a blocked number. I know who it is. Great! I stop , count to 3 and answer it.

"Hello"

"Hi chick"

"Uh hi dad" I say nervously.

"So when were you gonna tell me you and your family were off the America?"

"You mean OUR family?" I say

"Well if it's OUR family how come I wasn't told about it?"

"Please don't start dad!" I yell.

"Don't you start with me young lady!" He screams back.

I hang up the phone.

"Was that who I think it was?" Mum asks

"Yep"

We all look at eachother and shrug the feeling away.

Don't ask me why I don't talk to my dad anymore. I guess it's just he's not like other dads, and when I say that I don't mean it in a good way, I mean he'd come home pissed of every single night, take it out on one of us and make us angry or he'd pick fights with my mum. And when she refused he'd chase her outside until he gets the words out of her mouth. It took mum 4 years to get rid of him, not because she didnt want to, trust me she did, but because he wouldn't stop righting little fucking letters and get back into this family. Well I don't like to talk about him, due to some experience with him of my own. My family is better off now and that's how it's gonna stay!

It's now 11:35 and next thing you know Travis runs over to the little book store in the corner of the airport.

" I want this one to read on the plane" he shouts

" hey what's the magic word?" I ask

" please " he says

I get his little colouring book for him, something to keep him occupied on the plane with. On my way out I grab the latest girlfriend and dolly mags. They're my favourite.

"Plane 224 will be leaving in 15 mins to LA , plane 224" I hear over the speaker.

That's our plane!

"C'mon trav lets go back to mum"

We wait at the gates getting to leave in about 5 minutes. And it's finally time! As the lady checks our boarding passes I get the strange feeling in my stomach ! I'm so excited but nervous at the same time ! Here we go ! Goodbye perth , hello LA !

The flight is about 17 hours , but we are stopping at Sydney airport for 3 hours so all together about 20 hours. But I don't care , it's worth it !

" Good afternoon, virgin airlines my name is Wendy and you are travelling to LA , make sure your seat belts are on and your oxygen bags are under your seat and incase of any emergency we have life jackets up top for you, thankyou and hope you have a safe and relaxing trip"

We are getting ready to take of now and I look to Travis.

"Here we go trav get ready"!

He's so excited, he's never been on a plane before and he already loves it!

"Please fasten your seat belts and remain seated".

Here we go, it's really happening now. The plane takes off and I look over at Travis. He has the biggest smile on his face and so does mum, which is so beautiful to see. I haven't seen one of those smiles in, I can't even remember ! I lean back in my seat and stick my head in my book and read for the next 3 hours.

We have finally arrived in Sydney and there is no stopping! We get out of the plane, into the airport and line up to get our bags. Over in the corner I can hear Nathan huffing and puffing really loud.

"What's up Nath" ?

"AFL players over there, man I have to get Juddy's autograph !"

"Off you go then"

Nathan is like that, he's so into his sports. He never ever misses a game! Like ever. And Layla, well you know Layla just one of those real girly girls! Obsessed with boys, parties and shopping. But what do you expect from a teenage girl? Me on the other hand, I like to say I'm in between. Well I absolutely hate boys and there smelly scents but I absolutely hate girls and their bitchiness! I'm in love with Channing Tatum and young Johnny Depp! But I also am in love with Megan Fox and Naya Rivera! That's where my obsession over glee comes in, I only really watch it cos of Naya and well I love to sing.
