Still Living With Liza Koshy {Book 2}

.Saris.

I watch silently as we speed past the seemingly never-ending mass of trees, coming together to form one big, beautiful blur of green as we rush past them.

I roll down my window, shut my eyes, and inhale the beautiful scent of nature.

Soon enough, we're in a busy market square with men buzzing around in motorcycles and lots of women and kids rushing around in saris and pattu langas.

I look to my left to see Liza in the far left side of the taxi with a genuine smile of happiness on her face that just says 'home, sweet home'.

"You'll love it here," Liza says, catching me looking, "I promise."

"-and if you don't, sucks for you." She smiles at me.

I smile back and make up my mind yeah, I will like it here. And if I don't, sucks for me.

Another hour passes, with me just staring out of the backseat window in awe as I take in my surroundings, this allows me to lose myself in reality and get lost in my own thoughts.

'It's strange', I think to myself ,'it's strange how lives can change in a matter of seconds, minutes, hours, or days.'

'It's strange how your wildest dreams can become your harshest realities and your scariest nightmares can also become your realities.'

"How come we have fingertips but we don't have toetips - yet we can tiptoe but not tipfinger...?"

'It's strange how you don't know what this thing we call a future holds for you.'

"It's so strange how I was once living happily in a family of four in Bordeaux, then that changed to a family of three, then my parents got convicted, then I made a friend in an orphanage, then i-I I got adopted by one of my favourite people in the universe and now I'm starting a new chapter of my life in India?"

Wow. My life really is something else.

"Welcome, Aurelie,"Liza says, I can practically hear the smile on her face ,"to India."

And that's how I'm Still Living With Liza Koshy {Book 2}
