That One Guy

Chapter 8

After your moment with Jack, you wiped your eyes and got your stuff together and called for an Uber. You said your goodbyes to everyone and left for the airport. Jack told you that he hoped that you would come back soon, but you knew you wasn't returning for a long time so you left him a note on his bed saying 'Enjoy your life here in LA, and don't miss me too much 🙂'. As you thought about the note you left him, you felt sad. Guilty. But at the end of the day you have to do what you have to do. You arrive at the airport and give the driver some change. You waited to board your plane for hours. When your plane was ready, you got on board and settled in to your seat and fell asleep. 4 hours later you got woken up by one of the staff on the plane to say that you had arrived. You was home. Yes! You rushed off the plane and ran through the airport and at the entrance was your mum and dad. You screamed as you saw them and you gave them a big hug. "I can't tell you how much I missed you guys!" You said hugging them both. "Darling we missed you too, and were so happy to see you again" mum said while smiling. You all stopped hugging and went to dads car. Your little brother and your little sister was in the back seat with you. You hugged them both and told them how much you've missed them. You got home after an hour of driving. When you got in you put your stuff on the couch, went upstairs and flopped onto your bed. Good old bed you thought. You took a nap because of jet lag. You slept from 6pm to 9am in the morning. You woke up early because you had to get ready for the funeral. It was your grandma's funeral today, and that's why you had to leave LA. But you couldn't return for awhile because you had so much things that are going to happen here in Orlando. You got ready and waited until everyone else was ready and then you went. In the car, your little brother, Charlie, started crying because he was the closest to your grandma and you hugged him and told him that everything is going to be okay. When you got to the funeral you saw all of your family members like your uncle and your auntie and your grandad, it was nice to see everyone there you thought. You and your family went to sit down and just as you did the funeral started. Your grandad spoke at the front about how your grandma was so lovely and the best woman he's ever met. After a few more relatives spoke, you was asked to go up and speak about your grandma, and you was honoured.*deep breathe* "My grandma was a woman with a heart. She was a loving person and a caring one. She spoke actions more than words and she was very wise. I think that she understood me the most out of everyone except for my little brother of course. Rest in peace grandma, I love you." Everyone clapped as you walked back to your seat. You felt proud to say such kind words. After the speeches that a few people did, everyone gathered outside around your grandmas coffin. They watched as it went into the ground. Relatives cried. Charlie put a rose on top of the coffin before it went fully under. An hour later the funeral was over and everyone went home.
