1 week later, Midnight
Olivia had snoozed way to many alarms, the only reason was the fact of getting up, it was that she wanted to stay here! Finally picking herself up and making herself get out her bed. Looking around her empty room, she grabbed her clothes she was going to be wearing. A sweater and leggings, she put her comfy boots on and put her hair in a ponytail fixing her fringe in the right place. She sighed and looked in the mirror, she looked terrible. Either from hardly any sleep, worry or the fact she was nearly up all night last night crying.
Shaking her head she headed out her room and jogged downstairs. "Hi honey" Her mom spoke quietly drinking coffee. "Want some?" She asked smiling. Shaking her head Olivia walked over to the cupboard and took a cereal bar out and started eating it. "Hun you need more than that..." Her mom told her. Sighing, she picked out another bar and her mom rolled her eyes. "Funny Liv..." Her mom walked away. There might be a starbucks at the airport, she would get something there. Common white girl alert! False! she wasnt. She just enjoyed coffee...her favourite a simple latte, or a vanilla frap...maybe cotton candy and strawberries too.
Olivia watched as her mom and dad loaded cases into the car. She couldnt believe it. It was 2am, freezing, pitch dark outside and they were going to the airport to get a 4am flight to their 'new home' turning away not wanting to think about it, Olivia started walking away from the front door till her dads voice sounded behind her. "Your case next honey...lets go" He half smiled and picked up her cases. Her mom walked in, taking keys, and switching off all the lights. Sighing, a lump formed in Olivia's throat, she thought she was going to puke.
"Lets go Liv..." Her mom soothed her by rubbing her back slightly. They all walked out their house, locked the front door and got into the car, driving away out the drive passing the dark, beautiful small home...which was now their past.
They got to the airport just after 3am. It wasnt quiet, but wasnt busy. It was decent for the time...Olivia couldnt be bothered with anyone. Her dad done all the important stuff where as her mom collected tickets and done extra baggage. Standing next to her mom she looked around the airport blankly, waiting to see her dad come back. "Thats us...." Her mom whispered and they both walked to a set of seats. Looking around the airport Olivia spotted a small map. It did have starbucks. She hoped it was open. "Mom, im going to go get something to drink..." She stood up. "Dont get lost sweetie...the gates open at 3:30....!" Her mothers voice full of worry now "I'll be fine" Liv walked away and followed the directions.
She finally found the starbucks, it was open, and it was empty. She walked in, coffee filling her nostrils. She walked up to the counter and looked at the guy smiling. "Hello love! what can i get ya!" His strong english accent asked. Wow, okay...they were in london after all. "Hi...could i have a tall latte please, and a small cinnamon swirl?" She smiled at him. "Certainly lovely!" He grinned and picked out the pastry. "Whats your name love?" He asked. "Olivia." She smiled at him. "Pretty name love" He smiled and wrote her name. Ha, she didnt look lovely. She paid for it and got it then left. Walking back the way she came, eating and sipping she finally saw her mom and dad.
"Ah, thats where you were" Her dad smiled rolling his eyes. Sitting down opposite them she just turned. It was now time to get to the gates. Liv, put her stuff in the bin and followed her mom and dad. Showing her ticket and passport she half smiled at the woman, she nodded and gave it back to her. "Have a nice flight" She nodded. "Thanks" Liv mumbled walking behind her mom and dad. They got onto the plane, sat down, put their belts on and sat back.
"Hello flight 193, From London to Sydney. This is the captain speaking just wishing you all a lovely flight! Currently, 4:34 AM, flight approximatly 22 hours, giving time for Australia, landing in Sydney. Thank you"
