A final look in the mirror and then I'm gone, out of here forever.
No more boring school, no more fake friends and no more tears.
I should probably text my actual best friend to meet me one last time before I leave.
"hi Han, meet at the cafe? Crying already..."
Well actually I'm not, I cried way too much this year to cry about this thing. I've been thinking about pro's and con's about this trip, and there's probably a billion more pro's than con's. The only bad thing I've figured out is leaving Hanna and leaving the wonderful "fizzybear" ice cream at my favourite cafe, me and Han's standard really... When I think about it now I actually think leaving that ice cream behind is a good thing, I might catch diabetes if i stay.
"Bye dad, I'll go say goodbye to Hanna now"
I run down the stairs, dragging my 2 large suitcases with me. I wonder if dad even can hear me over all the noise my suitcases are making.
But he did, a nod confirmed it...
Ever since mom moved to France because of a job, he's been acting like there's no light in his life. He almost never talks to me or my brother, well my brother also moved about a year ago, I guess he couldn't handle dad's depression any more. I just wished he would have taken me with him that day he left... Now it's my turn.
Dad doesn't say a word he just keeps he's eyes straight at the tv screen.
"I'll be gone for a year, you know? New country? Remember? But yeah, take care dad. Call me if u want to"
I hear a small mumble coming from his mouth that is full of crisps, still not caring to look at his 18 year old daughter that is going to move to a different continent for a year. I'm not surprised.
My pocket is buzzing.
" yeah, see you in five! I'll give you a ride to the airport... If I can see trough my tears..."
Hanna is probably more sad than me... She's always been my best friend, and I'm hers, but different from me she has a loving family, a boyfriend and a application for her dream school here in Richmond. I'm so happy for her, always been, and now I'm happy for me too. Me finally going to live my dream in the great city of London.
