Becoming Me

Lea's P.O.V.

As I slowly make my way down the long hallway with my red suitcase.

I am finally doing what I have wanted. What I have needed.

I am finally leaving my hometown New York for L.A.

Maybe I can find what I've always been looking for. The part of me I want to know and be proud of.

I make my way to my first class seat, that I have been saving up for. With all of the other money for L.A.
I put my suitcase above the seat, thankfully someone helped me.

I got seated and took a deep sigh.

"I can do this" I kept saying to myself in my head.
I do want this but I feel like it won't end well. Like this will come crashing down in the end, and I will have to go to my parents again.

They didn't think it was a right time to move on with my life, but im 20 and this is what my heart is telling me.

I just hope my heart isn't playing tricks on me.

I sit there, thinking about what my new life will be and smile. Then finally, we take off.

After flying for a couple hours, we had a layover in Texas. Now I am getting on my last plane to L.A.

. . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

As I settle on my next plane. I sit in my seat anxiously waiting to take off.

Once we did take off the electronics sign turned off. I put on my headphones, hit shuffle, and began to hum along with the song.

All I want by Kodaline.

I listened to the music and eventually began to doze off into a calm slumber.

"Excuse me miss?"

I awoke by a flight attendant rubbing my shoulder. I removed my low playing earbuds.

"Yes ma'am?" I asked her rubbing my eyes gently, so my makeup isn't ruined.

"We are about to land. Please turn off your electronics. And may I take your trash?"

"Okay. Thank you" I handed her my trash and shut off my phone.

"Everyone we will be landing in five minutes. The temperature in Los Angeles, California is 79 degrees and it is 3:00
p.m. Hope you enjoyed your flight with
U.S. Airlines!"

Finally. I am here.
