Chapter 24: So Long Kansas
By the time I land in New York I am exhausted.
Travis and my parents both tried to get me to stay this morning. Leaving was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. I just think he needs time and me pushing him to get better won't help; it will only make things worse.
I hail a taxi and tell them the address of my apartment. It's in the heart of the city. I have wanted to go to new york for so long and this has been my only opportunity.
I try and soak everything in the bright lights and busy streets. It is breathtaking.
By the time I get to my apartment it's nearly seven at night. It feels so much later though. I walk into the lobby and find the office.
I lightly knock on the door. There's a friendly woman sitting at a desk.
"Hello. May I help you?" She says smiling at me.
"Yes, I'm Melody Marquet.." I trail off. Hoping she will remember our previous arrangements that we made over the phone.
She stands up.
"Yes of course! It's so nice to finally meet you Mrs. Marquet!"
She shakes my hand and then grabs a set of keys.
"Follow me and I will show you to your apartment."
She leads me to an elevator. The building is absolutely amazing and my work agreed to pay for my housing.
We stop on the fifteenth floor. She opens up a door and then leads me inside.
"Here we are! 2 bedrooms, one bathroom, living room, dining room, and kitchen. Is this alright?"
"This is perfect."
I take a look around. It's an absolutely fabulous apartment. It's already furnished. The only bad thing is that it's too big for just me. Oh well. I guess I will get used to it.
"Well Mrs. Marquet I will let you get settled, someone will be up with all you're luggage ub a few short minutes. Let the front desk know if you need anything."
"Thank you."
With that she leaves. Now I'm alone.
Not that I'm by myself I notice how cold it is. But somehow it felt like home.
I'm interrupted from my thoughts by a knock on the door.
All my luggage is brought in. It's not very long until I am once again all alone, in this cold big city.
I take a look around. When I get to the master bedroom I see a breathtaking view of new york. My entire outside wall is made of glass. I sit down on a chair by the window and sigh.
Suddenly I'm interrupted by thoughts anout Travis.
I bet this time of night he's till up.
And for the 20th time that month I let tears fall.
