Chapter 10: Tight Hugs and a Sad Figure
Clara's P.O.V.
As I stepped on to the cement steps of the school's front doors, I heard the engines of the bus
I quickly ran through the long hallway of black lockers, clutching my black sling-bag, trying to prevent it from falling off, whilst doing this, I was making sure my suitcase didn't get stuck.
I stopped dead in my tracks, as I saw the back parking lot.
I felt my feet glued to the floor as I saw the mounting and dismounting students.
This is it. I told myself.
I slowly walked up to the red bus, that would take us to the family airport.
I walked up slowly to the Gemstones' bus, absorbing everything.
I gave my suitcase to the luggage guy.
I took a deep breath and then I slowly stepped into the bus.
My parents were waiting at the airport already.
"1 2 3." Someone cued.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Everyone in the bus shouted.
"Wow!" I gasped in surprise. "Thanks for remembering!"
I plopped my bag down in the grey seat near the front.
I recieved a big tight and cramped hug, so cramped in fact that some just held their arms out in a hugging position and stayed where they were, away from the hug circle.
I then spotted Bernadine staring out the window.
She had a plain gray jacket on, white-washed jeans, Keds and a Nikon camera.
After the hug, I immediately sat down beside Bernadine.
"You okay?" I asked her.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She replied, softly.
"I think you're not." I said, firmly.
"I'm fine, really." She swatted me away.
What is up with that girl? I asked myself.
The bus driver came in.
He was wearing a plain white shirt, red pants, a black cap and shades on his cap.
He sat down and started the bus.
I came back to my seat and sighed.
"Here we go."
