FREEDOM

The begining

I'm standing in front of my parents. I'm saying my farewells. The mother still not happy with my decision? I decide to ignore her moaning.
This was my chance, this was my transport to a new beginning. No one will ruin it for me! I won't let them.

*flashback to a month ago*
I saved all the money I needed to buy a plane ticket for one. No return ticket just a one way ticket. I didn't know when I was gonna be coming back. I called my friend who moved to Korea to go to Seoul National University and told her about my plans of staying in Korea for a while. She said I could stay with her in her house for however long I be in Korea. That meant my living arrangements were fine.

*flashback to 2 weeks ago*
"Daddy, there's something I need to tell you. I'm planned on going to Korea and staying there for a year or two."

"Have you gone mad?! Your not going anywhere?" Expected. But I didn't know if this was something he felt due to his love for me or something he thought due to his brainwashing wife.

"I'm 21. I'm no longer a kid." I stayed calm.

"Doesn't matter! Your not going and that's that!" The tone in his voice was deep and scary.

"I've booked my tickets and my living arrangements are fixed. Don't worry about me I'll be leaving in 2 weeks." I said calmly and hugged him before leaving the room.

*flashback to a week before the flight*
My dad was now cool with the idea of me going to Korea. He understood that in needed some space. And I'm sure he figured out I wasn't a kid anymore.

"Why am I hearing of her going to Korea only now?!" My mum shouted.

"Cuz if you found out earlier you would have come up with a way to stop me." I said

"Sienna!" My dad yelled.

"I'm stating a fact, it's not like it's a secret. We all know how she is." It might seem as though I'm being cruel but how would you react if this was you for the past 21 years?

"I don't agree cancel the ticket." The mother said.

"Are you gonna return my money to me?" Yes I was being rude but my anger was getting the greater of me.

-------------------------------
It's been 4 days.
She now realised I wasn't joking and decided to accept the reality.
This was all her fault anyways. If she had been my mother instead of my jailer this would have never happened.

*end of flashback*

I'm now in the airport. Just minutes away from getting on the plane. It was my chance to end my prison sentence and start afresh. It felt good to know I was leaving this place behind. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love England, but I want to start afresh, I want to be a new person with no heavy weight dragging me down.
--------------------------
I'm now sat on the plane. I had the window seat. I'm sat there with the biggest smile on my face. I felt like I was a bird in a cage who finally managed to break through and fly away to its freedom, to its own find.

This is the best feeling in the world.

I had my belt on and my earphones in. We were in the air. The sky looked so beautiful. The clouds were like fluffy cotton candy.
--------------------------
I finally landed in Korea.

"Ah! Freedom! This is it! No more cage! No more barriers! It's time to be me.... the real me!" I thought to myself.

I grabbed my luggage and quickly ran to find Jimin, my sister from another mother (in other words my bestfriend who was living and studying in Korea).
