We just got off the plane and hell I'm tired, I can't believe we have to take so many flights to reach South Africa.
Luckily we here, I swear it was a life time flight. Thanks God. The airport is beautiful and big, real big. We walk towards the airport while our bags were taking care off.
I took out my phone to call Chrissy, I promise her I would call her...."Lucia put your phone away, you can call Chrissy when we in the taxi please. "mom told me.
I listened to her and put it away. We reach the airport and I kind of get scared because here is so many people. Is this people really all going to other places of coming from other places.
My Heart starts to beat as I catch up with my mom and take her hand In mine seeing her smile at me. I just roll my eyes at. I'm just glad she is here with me. I'am acting like a baby now.
This side of the city is cold. I grabbed my jacket tightly when a cold wind suddenly floating making me miss our place already. There is so warm.
"You fine darling?" I heard mom asked me which I find strange, but maybe just because she is a concerned mother.
"Yes mom, thank you, and you, are you fine? I asked her while we wait for our luggage.
" I couldn't be any better my baby, mom is going to be fine". she told me with her beautiful smile on her face making me smile as well.
When the taxi stopped in front of us, I couldn't wait to get in. Mom also join and sit down.
"Good morning welcome to northern cape kimberley." the driver spoke.
"Good morning and thank you", we greet him back. I couldn't wait to get my out and call Chrissy, I was so excited.
"She must be asleep by now, the time there is different form here", she told me, but I didn't listen and just dailed her number hearing the phone ring. I was so excited to hear her voice as I smiled into the phone.
I was about to drop the phone when I heard her voice on the other side of the phone..."Hi, who is this?"She ask sounding asleep making me giggle.
" HI, it's me Lucia, I'm sorry for waking you up and mom told me you would be asleep, but I couldn't wait to hear your voice, I miss you." I told her.
"Oh,okay sorry, I had wondered who will call so late. I'm glad that you guys reach there save .I miss you guys too."she spoke sounding so sad through her sleepiness.
I got quiet for a while looking at my mother not knowing what to respond. I felt bad for leaving her there all alone." We miss you so much darling, I just wish you could be here with us right now. "mom told her hearing her sight and take a few breaths.
I glance at mom for telling her that, she lift her shoulder shaking Her head." I'm sorry about that mom, I promise I will visit soon", she spoke.
"Thank you my baby, I know you will, but call us everytime and you can asked us everything okay. "mom reassure her.
" Thank you too mom, and I hope you going to love your new home, babe thanks for the call, I need to get back to sleep now and please don't forget about beautiful guys you promise me". she told me ending the call. my eyes furrowed in shock, mom just hear that.
I couldn't find the courage to look at mom, to see the shock on my face,but I have to face her sooner or later. I felt how she look at me and I glance at her seeing he look at me with also shockness and raise eyebrows.
"Uhm beautiful guys, I see." she spoke looking back out of the window.
I sight, "stupid bitch..." What was that young lady? "She asked me making me flince.
" Uh mm nothing mom." I told her scratching my head, how could she do this to me. I'm so going to kill her.
I really missed her and this place look boring all ready. I look out the window and find everything amazing as we pass certain places. I just wish she could be here with me, we would have stop, just to take pictures. I go through my phone and reach my gallery smiling at the picture of me and chrissy. It's so hard really.
The drive is long, boring and it is so quiet in this car, the drive didn't even play some nice music. I glance at the driver and he seems to be in his own world.
Mom was also quiet, so I wasn't going to bothered her either. I looked through the window of the cab and sight thinking to myself. That maybe this place is going to bad as I think. Im going to love it and I'm going to make it so fun for myself. I just it also have a lot of opportunities be I have so many dreams in mind to do when I'm done with school. Thinking about school, I hope it's going to be a best school with some nice teachers and learners.
I going to need a part time job for after school, because I'm not going to be all alone in that house because mom is going to work and I will be alone. I have to stay busy, to keep me from thinking of chrissy.
I couldn't stop thinking about her been alone there, so I decided to play my favorite game farmheroes on my phone. This ride is going to take forever I need to do something. I lost my mind and attention on my game hearing voice talking. I stop and glance at mom.
"Mom, did you say something? I asked her.
" Oh no darling, I was exactly telling the driver where we going. "she told me smiling.
Okay.
" Ma'ma is this your first time, here in South Africa? "the driver asked as I roll my eyes.
Oh not really, but this is surely my daughter's first time and she is kind of boring mom told him making me gaspe with my hand in my mouth
