"I'll miss you so much Pez, I wouldn't feel the same while being alone in the apartment, without you!" Jade hugged me. Jade, Niall, and three of  Zayn's best friends: Liam, Louis and Harry were with us in the airport. You remember when he mentioned Harry and Liam in our first talk in the boulevard?
"You'll be happy being with Niall in our apartment and do whatever you want without a blondie who's doing everything else with you." I winked at her so she'd know exactly what I mean before she slightly punched my shoulder.
"We could be in his apartment if we want to be alone, I don't want you to go." She hugged me closer.
"I don't want to be without you either but, we all know that Niall loves the sofas and the couches of our apartment." She laughed and turned back to the group of the five men talking together.
"And you'll spend more time with Zayn." She said winking at me and I just rolled my eyes and smiled.
"Ladies and gentlemen, flight WN 3057 to Burkina Faso is about to take off in thirty minutes, please direct to gate A3." The intercom voice I wish didn't exist called for Zayn and I. I know what you're thinking like 'what the hell you're supposed to go to Ghana and not Burkina Faso' but, the travel manager thought that it would be more adventurous going to Burkina Faso then directing to Ghana in a car ride that will last for at least fourteen hours. Is a car ride adventurous?
"I've missed you already Pez." Jade hugged me really tight that I almost couldn't breath."We'll be face calling on every freaking night and the only condition where we won't is one of us being dead." Jade glared at me and all I could do is laughing out loud at that, "okay we will don't worry." And we hugged once again, our last hug for months.

After fifteen minutes, we were in the plane. I stayed next to the window and Zayn was next to me. "What are you planning to do in a plane ride that will last for almost six hours?" Zayn asked.
"Sleep. Because we will arrive at six o'clock and there will be a break between the plane ride and the car ride then we will go to Ghana in fourteen hours and I think I will spend those fourteen hours watching some movies or anything."  As I turned to him, he was already asleep, he looked pretty cute with his messy hair so I decided to take a picture of him. I'll let it the picture of his contact so every time he calls I'll burst in laughters instead of answering his call.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome on board Flight WN 3057 with service from London to Burkina Faso. We are currently third in line for take-off and are expected to be in the air in approximately thirteen minutes time. We ask that you please f.." BLA BLA BLA! I've heard a flight attendant saying through the intercom. Here I'll travel for the first time in my life, I will meet new people and will stay for months without seeing Jade every morning receiving a morning text from Niall, eating strange food and writing my adventures diaries that will be posted and the only person I know is Zayn. Here the adventures begin. Is it going to be alright meeting new people, knowing their cultures and their own food? I won't feel comfortable with it but I'll try to. I love food so I'll be super happy trying new food but I would miss it too much if I loved it.

I never told you what happened with me and Jesy, she called Adam's number and his sister replied and said that he died in a car accident. Normally, I would be sad about it but I wasn't when I knew it because I felt so much better, every cheater receives his punishment and he destroyed my whole life until he died. And since I knew it, a huge weight was left of my chest and Jesy and I became friends after his sister told her that 'she was sorry for what her brother has done', they met and her sister told her exactly what I said.

Jade and Niall are still a happy couple together with their engagement and Zayn and I became closer since he defended me when Jesy insulted me but we forgot about it, Jesy got out once with me, Jade, Niall, Zayn, Louis, Liam and Harry and she thought that we were pretty cool so we forgot about the fight that was in the workplace.

At 1:00am , the sleep interrupted my thoughts. Sleeping with tens of people around me, children running and everyone is talking because they have nothing to do as their devices are turned off but I couldn't help myself. It would be better if I stayed awake, less fatigue but I couldn't help it.

It was 6:00am in London but 5:00am in Burkina Faso when we arrived. I was dead tired and you can tell that Zayn woke up with a miracle, sleepy head. "Mr Michel told me that we'll find a blond with a white other man waiting for us. And I guess it'll be pretty easy to find a blond man in Africa." Zayn said as we grabbed our suitcases. I looked to the direction of the rest rooms, their was a fight there. So I focused on the fighters because maybe it's them but a sound freaked me out was behind me "Good morning miss Edwards I'm really sorry for coming that late." A blond round man and another muscled one were next to Zayn. "I'm John, your travel manager in Burkina Faso and Ghana. And this is Paul." He turned to the muscled man who had brown hair slicked back. "He's my friend and will be driving us to Ghana and wherever you want to go there." We shook hands with Paul and John. Zayn and I took our suitcases and directed to the black car that was waiting for us to get out from Ouagadougou's airport. (Ouagadougou is the capital of Burkina Faso)

"I canceled the plan of the movies, I'll sleep for more hours until we arrive." I announced to Zayn who was ready to get back to sleep. "I only slept for five hours so I'll sleep for more three hours and I'll spend the rest of the trip watching the movies."
"Me too." That's all he said before he got back to sleep.
"Don't you wanna have breakfast somewhere?" John asked. Oh food!
"Okay! I'll order for Zayn something." I answered.
"We will arrive to Ghana at almost 11:30pm so we can buy you your lunch too if you want."
"Whatever you prefer." I answered opening my laptop and looking for a movie, I don't feel sleepy anymore and there'll be breakfast that I don't want to miss.

We went to a restaurant that was supposed to be closed until 10 but was open after mr John discussed with someone else. The name was pretty strange because the official language here is French so is the name of the restaurants. Mr Paul translated for me the menu and, because Zayn loves all kind of chicken, I oredred both of us two sandwich, two chocolate fondants. We, surely, brought so much water because it will be scalding here and i brought some coffee because I won't be able to continue the day like this! I ate my chocolate fondant, I can't deny that it was pretty delicious, and opened my laptop. What film to choose? Maybe.. Edward scissorhands? Why not?

After I finished the movie, I looked with enthusiasm for another one while Mr Paul took a rest from driving for quarter an hour. I looked through the window, everything there was almost a desert with few plants and trees. I could see, coming from between the far trees some black people wearing colorful clothes and we were all alone here, the car parked, Zayn, mr John and I are in the car and Mr Paul is stretching outside the car. "Hell not today." Mr Paul screamed as he entered the car but he couldn't drive because there was already few kids standing in front of the car.

The black men hit the car multiple times with their spears until mr Paul screamed "get out of the car right now!" I shook Zayn multiple times but he didn't react at all until I poured some water on his face and we got out of the car. They attached our hands hardly behind our backs and here an unexpected action started. Everyone felt scared that nobody could ask a question or do anything but following them wherever they were going.
