"Wake up, sweetie. It's time to go." I hear a voice above me say.
I groan. Go where? I groggily open my eyelids and look up. I see my parents standing above me.
Fraya and Josie are ok the doorway, already fully dressed.
"I don't wanna get up!" I complain.
"It's time to go to California, dear." As soon as my dad says this, I shoot up.
Job transfer.
New York
California
Move
Everything comes back to me.
"Mom! I can't go! No!" She looks at me with sad eyes.
"I'm sorry. But you have to. Fraya and Josie are coming to the airport with us."
Tears fill my eyes.
I'm really leaving.
I jump out of bed and push past my parents. I run to the bathroom. Looking in the mirror, I almost scream.
It looks like a rat nested on my hair. I'm guessing that I didn't wash off my makeup last night because I have mascara, eyeshadow, and lipstick smeared all over my face.
I look like a just came out of the grudge.
I quickly jump into the shower and do all my 'stuff'
After I get out, I blow dry my hair and get out my crimper/curler.
15 minutes later, I have 'beachy waves'
I walk out of the bathroom and into the hall, still in my towel.
I race to my bedroom door.
Thankfully, everybody left.
I walk to my closet and think about what I should wear.
I end up grabbing a white crop top that has '#selfie' on it in a coral color and shorts in the same color. I then grab my white sandals and slip them on.
I snatch my five suitcases off of the ground. Fraya and Josie helped me pack then last night. I walk out of my room slowly and enter my living room.
My parents stand up with Josie and Fraya.
My best friends- well, more like sisters- both come over to me and give me hugs.
"It's time to go." My mom tells me with a sad smile.
One hour later, I'm sitting on an airplane, headed to Cali.
* * *
"Time to wake up dear." My eyes slowly flutter one. I sit up and look around. Ugh. Where am I?
Oh ya. The plane. Looking to my left, I see a small old lady smiling at me.
"We're at California." She tells me then walks away. I grab one of my bags from the overhead compartment and get off the plane. As soon as I'm out the door, in he by a rush of cold air. I shiver. They have the AC on pretty high.
I look around and try to see the people... the Masons'? I don't know what the couple looks like, so I don't know what I'm looking for.
After looking around for a few minutes more, I decide to just sit down and wait for Everybody to leave so I can see who's left.
About 30 minutes later, everybody is gone. Well, that was quick. There are only a few people left.
A really old couple. Not them.
