We reached the airport. We had our boarding pass and we went to board the plane. In like twenty hours or so we will be in US.

We took off without any delays in the timing. We had our seats. I am nervous. New place and new life away from mom.

" Mom I am going to miss you. Even Riddhima is not there now. I am thinking about you." I told my mom. I am very concerned now regarding her well being alone. I understand that she is an independent woman now but still this feeling is something I am not able to overcome.

"Radhika don't think about that. Just think about your future. But they are something's that I want you to remember. Don't ever expect anything to be perfect. And the most important thing is that never give up on anything that is yours to keep. Always take your stand even if whole world is against you. Never bow in front of the person who doesn't deserve it." My mom told me with all the seriousness. And I make sure that I mental note everything.

" I will keep that in mind. I am always prepared for the worst." I said thinking about my commitment to myself.

" No don't be prepared for the worst but be welcoming to the happiness." My mom said me while squeezing my hand for encouragement. I love my mom.

Few hours were left for us to land in US. We had our meal. We freshened ourselves. My dad was in another flight and he was reaching before us. Now I am prepared to face my new life.

After that everything went pretty fast.  The plane landed and we had the whole procedure to arrivals. Then the baggage claim. I was getting really tired now. Now I have to face this jetlag as well. It seems it's nothing here in US. My mom also looks very tired. A sigh of relief was left when we came out to see my dad and Arjun waiting for us. Arjun came hurriedly towards us and took the luggage cart from my mom and dad took mine.

I could not believe that I slept for only two hours in the whole journey. But I was glad that my mom slept well. The first thing that came out of my mind when I met Arjun was yawn. Well that was embarrassing but I was really sleepy now. And it seem Arjun did not mind but smiled.

" You sleep now. I will wake you up when we reach home." Arjun told me and helped us with the luggage.

Arjun and dad sat in the front and me and Mom sat in the back. As soon as I got seated I slept on my mom's shoulder.

When I woke up, I don't know how much time later but I was not in the car but in comfy bed. How did I ended up here.

I quickly stood up from bed and started looking the surroundings. I don't know whose room is this but it was really spacious and beautiful. With modern touch.

I could see my luggage in the room in the corner

I could see my luggage in the room in the corner. So I still have to arrange the luggage but before that I am feeling really hungry. And before eating of course I need to freshen up. But where is mom and everyone.
