Tara Rayes

"Bye Tara," my best friend tells me at my departure at noon, "I wish I could've come with you. But you're gonna make it, I know it. You'll rock that long ass time ... Oh man, I'll miss you so much." She hugs me and her eyes start to water. I don't think I've ever seen her that emotional.

"Hey, stop," I encourage her, "don't worry. No need to tear up." I smile and hug her even tighter.

"I'll be so bored without you! How am I gonna survive the rest of the school year without you?! Oh and while we're speaking about that, you lucky b.itch! You just leave to wherever you even go and skip the last school days! How are you even allowed to? Your grades could be a whole lot better -"

"Okay, okay, J. Enough, I gotta go." I glare at her and start to laugh afterwards.

She hugs me another time and whispers into my hair, "I love you, b.itch."

"I love you too, sweetie," I laugh and get into the big car that looks way too expensive. It came right to my door to pick me up. This already starts really well. The biggest amount of negativity left me as soon as I'd seen the luxury car. There are still some fears and worrying aspects but the car makes me feel very famous for now and that's enough.

"Bye mom!" I shout one last time before the car drives away and the first seconds of three lonely months begin.

The page said that I wouldn't have any connection to the outerworld, though I have my phone with me. Of course I would not leave without it, who'd do that?

So the whole car ride I listen to music and let my mind wander. I think about the next months. Will it actually be as boring as I think now? Probably I'll enjoy having time for myself. You know, focusing on yourself, finding yourself - all that stuff the hippies say.

That gives me an idea. I could start with yoga!

I could change my lifestyle. Then, I could take a lot of pictures and post them on my instagram! I'll definetly have feed goals and get so many followers ...

Yes, this time off could definetly be a really good time for me.

The driver snaps me out of my dreams from myself in yoga-pants in front of green backgrounds and tumblr filters and tells me to get out of the car. I see that it already dawns and in front of me is an airport.

What the hell?

"Miss, here are the boarding passes. You need to hurry," he says with an heavy british accent.

"Boarding passes?" I repeat and examine them. When I look up he's already gone.

Great.

I'm left alone in - where am I even? - a foreign city in a huge airport. The best part: I've never flown before. Never in my whole life. I've never been to an airport before. Never in my whole life.

How am I supposed to not get lost and die?

I sigh and go into the scary building. On my pass it's written Gate C 3 and I can't even guess what that is supposed to mean.

So, to not get lost and die what I can easily imagine, I ask a young woman at a counter. She tells me where I have to go and what I have to do. She informs me that I first of all have to give away my luggage. I thank her for saving my life and do all what she told me.

A whole lifetime later I'm finally sitting in that damn airplane that is two hours late. I definetly didn't miss anything with not flying my whole life.

But to be really honest, I enjoy it. This is quite an adventure and my life's been way too boring in the last weeks. And mostly, I have this good feeling. Kinda a good vibe, that makes me feel like a good time is about to come.

If I'd just known what would happen in reality.
