I am going to the airport alone. Where did the family bond go? Now I am sure aunt Maggie is closer to them. She is even close than their own daughter. One evidence to prove that they don't consider me as a real daughter. I can feel the blood being drained out of my arteries and veins for one second , I thought I am going to lose balance. I knew at once my blood pressure fell down. Father didn't reply my exclamation " what " and I didn't expect anything more. From my mom's reaction , I came to know that she didn't know either , it was all - the one that is suppose to be my father - idea. I went out of the room, without saying any more word. I didn't rush. I didn't cry. I acted as if I didn't hear anything and had no expressions. I heard my mom calling but I didn't reply. I guess I was unable to reply. At that time, I didn't feel anything , it was all dark and quiet around me. I passed beside the maids room and I can feel eyes over me. I didn't react but continued my way till I reached my room. Before entering , I realized that Matt was standing on the doorstep of his room and looking at me. I didn't react as well and went inside.

3 am came. The time where we were suppose to go to the airport together. I heard strong knocks on the door and opened my eyes. I was surprised when I realized that I slept. I washed my eyes in a hurry then opened the door. It was rose. " Miss, Parker , you were sleeping! You haven't packed your final bag yet and the car is almost here! " she said hurrying inside the room to pack the bag. I looked at the maids running on the stairs to put the bags down. There was no sign of mom, dad and Matt.

" Where are the others ? "

" Al ready downstairs .. Here I am done , I'll take your bag down. "

" Thank you , Rose. "

I glanced at my room. This has been my room for 12 years and leaving it is no easier than leaving friends. I recalled all the good memories in the house when we were a happy family, before dad let aunt Maggie between us. When she saw me coming downstairs, she left to the car , not knowing that she did me a great favor by leaving. " I called a taxi for you and he will be here in 5 minutes , okay? C'mon Matt , c'mon amber " my dad said with his on Matt's shoulder and pulling him with himself. I nodded.

When Matt was about to leave , he progressed what dad had said.

" wait, what? You are not coming with us ? "

" there is no enough space in the car "

" there is enough space for a football team , faith ! "

" well , it's just you know , aunt Maggie doesn't like me much "

" Screw her !! "

" Matt she is your aunt ! " dad interrupted in an angry tone. I turned to him but Matt didn't. He hates the fact that dad supports her in everything. " But they don't seem to me as her nephews " my mom replied in another angry tone. I turned , Matt didn't. She glanced at dad and left to the car angrily. Directly after three seconds , dad left behind her.

" Dont worry I am going to be okay. Now go, they are al ready angry. "

" see ya in 45 minutes , sis. "

I smiled while watching him leave. Sometime I wonder if he is really sixteen. But he never leaves me because we are close to eachother. He wasn't close to his friends here and we are the only siblings , so we just found eachother in times of need. I went up to my room again to get my handbag and my cell phone.

By the time I got down , the taxi was al ready here.

He was staring at me through the rearview mirror. Of course he is wondering why my parents didn't let me go with them to the airport. I rode the car. I sat on the back seat without talking to the driver or saying anything. Enough went in my life al ready today. On the way, I took my phone out and went on Facebook. My friends al ready started uploading our old crazy pictures with sad quotes about goodbyes. I am really going to miss them.

" I wonder why a pretty girl like you is going to the airport alone? " he said distracting me. I logged out of Facebook and threw my phone back to the bag.

" I am not alone , my parents are there. "

" why didn't you go with them in the car? "

" Family business "

I turned my face showing him that I got annoyed because of his questions. I was mad enough for Matt. I saw the tears in his eyes when he was leaving. The tears were sad and full of emotion. It's like if he is telling me " why are you doing this ? What are you hiding ? "

I reached the airport by four am. As I expected, matt was waiting for me by the gate but not mom and dad. I didn't ask where are they, because by the way things went today , indicates that they al ready went to make their way to the plane. I kept my arm on Matt's shoulders and went to find my parents. After walking for 10 minutes and going through all the checking units and bags lifting, we found them at the departure gate where we will be directly taken to the plane. There was a checking unit and they were standing at the end of the queue when we joined. " hey , sweetie. How was the journey? " my dad asked when he saw us coming towards them. " it was fine " I said looking at Matt to avoid dads eyes and smiled to him. 10 minutes had passed al ready when I realized that it was our turn. Dad and Matt were checked and then mom. She kept her bag in the checking box and when she turned around to take it , I noticed her red cheeks. She was crying for a long time. My dad took mom by the arm and walked towards the plane's gate., but they stopped when they realized that Matt stopped to wait for me. I looked madly at my parents for leaving without waiting for me and then kept my bag in the box. " seat number E4 " said the woman returning the bag to me. Matt was surprised as much as I was. " I am sorry there must be a mistake , I am suppose to be sitting at A2 .. With them " I declared. She excused me to check but then said it was A2 but a change was made in the last minute to E4. I glanced at mom and sad and I understood immediately. I took the bag and rushed out of the door passing them. This was enough. This was beyond the limits. I didn't feel Matt behind me. I guess they stopped him from coming. I went inside the plane and I was directed to my seat. It was next to the window. I sat and kept my bag by my legs. I leaned my back on the chair and I was al ready closing my eyes to sleep when a noise made me rush to open them. A guy, pretty much not older than me was fighting his way to pass through, though the aisle was wide enough. He came nearer and nearer towards me until I realized his seat was next to mine. He threw the bag on the floor next to my leg and hen threw his body forcefully on the chair next to me.
