I took my seat on the plane, there wern't that many people on board yet, we had already done half of the trip and were just boarding again for the second half, i pulled my phone out of my bag, it was on flight mode still but i just wanted to check the time back in England, it was 8pm, around about now was when my mother gets home so she should discover i'm missing in let's say about 2hours when i don't come clean up her vomit from drinking too much i put my phone away again and got comfy.
a few hours into the flight i started thinking about my dad, which was a mistake i missed him, i was such a daddy's girl when he was still around and he died coming to get me from my Friends house in the middle of the night, some maniac fell asleep at the wheel and drove straight into him. a tear rolled down my cheek before i was brought back to reality by the women sitting next to me
"are you OK darling?" she asked, i didn't know what to do, and before i knew it i shook my head and the tears were flowing, the women pulled me in for a hug, it was nice, what i imagined a motherly hug to be, a few minutes later i stopped crying and pulled away, "i'm sorry for that" i whispered
"it's fine sweatie, you can tell me what's wrong"
i took a deep breath before telling her "well, i miss my Dad, he died last year and i miss him so much"
"what about your mum" she asked
"she Hates me because of it"
"if you don't mind me asking why are you on a plane to Australia all on your own your only what, 16?"
"17" i smiled "i ran away because there's nothing back there for me"
"where are you going to stay in Australia then?"
"honestly, i havn't thaught that far ahead"
"well sweetie i can understand why you ran away, let me ask you this, do you ever want to go back?"
"not a hope in hell"
"well then my name is Liz and if you would like you can come and live with me and my Family and be part of the hemming's crew?" i smiled up at her
"well Liz i'm Jessica and i would love to"
"welcome to the family then Jess"
we carried on talking for the rest of the flight and i think she basically knew everything about me. i found out that Liz had 3 sons 1 of which was my age his name was Luke and she was married, i found out that i would stay in the spare room and could decorate it however i wanted and that she would enroll me in the same school as Luke as soon as we got back. i have to say things are looking pretty good and i havn't even landed in Australia yet.
