"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to flight Qantas flight QF368. We are about to land at Sydney International Airport. Please push your seat back upright and make sure that your seatbelt buckled. Please remain seated until the seatbelt sign is turned off. If you are visiting Australia, welcome to our beautiful country, and to all Australians on board, welcome home."

Namjoon felt her fingers linked with his. She was nervous. He squeezed it a little assuring her that everything was alright and that he is next to her.

He promised Sam that he would do anything and everything he could to make her move to Australia a comfortable one.

Namjoon knew that the decision to move with him to Australia was not taken lightly. He didn't even push on the subject after they have gotten back together that night. She brought up the subject one night at his apartment. Namjoon couldn't contain his emotions when he asked if she would move with him to Australia and she said yes, immediately.

The next week after that went on with a flurry. He took more time off from work so he could help with her move. Her family was happy that they were finally back together again and that she was happy once again. Her mother thanked him over and over again for putting a smile back on her daughter's face. Namjoon promised to take good care of her daughter.

There were tears at the departure gate. Mostly from her and Sam as they would be separated again.

"I promise to come visit you," Sam said as she hugged her best friend goodbye. "I was starting to get used to having you living with me again."

The plane jerked to a stop at the gate and the seatbelt sign went off. The passengers on the plane got up from their seats and started lining up.

Namjoon sat with her until everyone got off. He took their bags from the overhead compartment and handed her her walking stick. She stood up next to him and laced her fingers with his again.

"Are you ready to start over again with me?" he asked.

"Yes," she replied with determination.
