Iris POV
I sat there in my room at the window where i usually sat whenever i was daydreaming or reading a book. I can't believe i am finally moving out, finally going to live and be a new person and see life. I know it sounds drastic but at home i felt so confined. Maybe it was my independence stage , that's why i am feeling like this. I exhaled the air that i didn't even know i was holding in. I looked around my now empty room and smiled, i am going to miss this place. I never really had girlfriends or friends in general so i can't say i will be missing the sleepovers. You can say i am a bit introverted, i will miss the quietness the room provided. Anyways, i stood up and locked the door.
I walked downstairs and i saw that my dad  was transferring my bags to the car. He was driving me to the airport.I am going to study in this small town in Netherlands called Bussum. I am so excited to be honest, i am going to learn culinary arts and cultural studies there in a local university. I was so happy that i got accepted there, i can already imagine the peace and quietness (yes i am a quietness addict if that is even a word). As i was in visioning the quiet book reading and evening strolls i will be doing, i didn't hear my dad's voice calling me until he touched me to wake me up from my daydream.
Dad said,"daydreaming again, huh?! Well i can see you won't miss me." He tried to put a sad face but i knew he was joking so i laughed and hugged him and said, "I'll miss you papa". He hugged me back and we started walking to the car with him asking me if i forgot anything and other paranoid questions which i understood him asking since i have never travelled by myself but i had to stop him and said, "DAD!! I have everything, i know you are worried that i never left home alone but i am a big girl now". With that he smiled and kiss my check. We got into the car and begun our ride to the airport. I am from Boulder, Colorado and i have never set foot anywhere else other than home but now i am about to spread my wings and fly. In the car, my dad made funny jokes and we laughed all hour long to the airport.
Once at the airport, i hugged my dad tight and kissed his check then left. I could see he was holding back tears, it must be really hard for him to let me go but i have to live too. I turned around and waved one more time.
Then i boarded my plane and buckled up for the 15hours trip. I breathed out all other thoughts for it's time to start a new chapter in my life.
