chapter 12- let it go
I was sitting with Victoria and Chris. They are like best friends now. I can't believe how both of them act like they expected Rocher to react like this. Victoria is not even affected by his rude behavior. I feel like there are some things I still don't know about him. He is like an ice burge, I just knew the upper part if it, but beneath it, was a person I never knew about.
"Ma'am, would you like to have something?" the airhostess asked.
"I would like to take a can of Coca Cola please, thank you." I said.
I was trying to wake both of my sleeping beauties, but they were sleeping their life off.
------------------------------------------------
I was tired, the flight was of 11 hours and 26 minutes. I was wide awake the whole time, I just can't sleep in airplanes. Meanwhile, Chris and Victoria were sleeping the whole time. Even my dogs were sleeping. What m I? An insomniac?
I called my father, he was beyond happy to hear that I was in the town. I missed him so much. I missed this air, that felt like home. I missed this smell, felt like running around in my childhood. I had left this city to start a new life. Would this trip too make me start something that is destined?
"VERONICA!!!" Chris shouted.
"What!??" I said.
"Stop getting lost in your own world." Victoria said.
"Ya, whatever." I said and rolled my eyes.
We found the driver and sat inside the SUV. Leo and Murphy started barking for no reason. I was feeling so weird. I never thought I would come back ever. I was kinda excited too. But, I missed everything.
As I reached my house. I smelled the roses that me and granny used to grow. I finally had the feeling of being home. After so long.
"Welcome children, welcome." My dad came running towards us. He hugged me and shook hands with Chris and Victoria.
"So dad, you know Chris, this is Victoria...Rocher's sister."
"Nice to meet you Victoria." my dad said.
After this brief introduction, my dad showed them the house. They were very excited to see my room. Ugh, well let's just say I wasn't so excited to show them. Teenage stuff feels cringe after an age. Why m I talking like an old person? I am still a child. Who used to run around these streets, who used to steal cookies from granny's shelf, who used to paint these walls, who had most weirdest dreams, I can't believe how time passed by. I made my dreams into reality. How this place I called home now feels like years have passed by and I haven't been here. I haven't felt this. Just then, I remembered where I need to go. I met my mom who still looked beautiful as ever. I met some old neighbors who now didn't treat me like the girl next door but someone's who has achieved a lot. I wanted to visit granny's grave. So I told Chris and Victoria that I'll just be back. But, they insisted that they'll come along.
I was driving towards the grave. My heart was beating like anything. I wanted to visit her for so long. Today, finally I'll get a chance to sit down and talk to her.
I reached the grave. A weird feeling passed through me. I was getting chills. Graves always feel so weird, they have some weird kind of energy around them. I reached towards my granny's grave. My heart stopped. Tears dwelled in my eyes as I saw someone had already felt flowers at my granny's and my grandpa's grave. I reached there grave. My eyes blacked out and I was visioning my grandparents lying together happily sleeping. I smiled. I knew wherever they were they were happy. But, the question is who left the flowers on their grave? Might be dad. I went there and cried my heart out, Victoria and Chris were looking at me. They felt my pain, I saw tears in their eyes. I felt like, I needed this. I needed to let go for so many years. Today I'll let it all out. Today, I'll make it all right.
Today, I'll not hold on, just let it all flow.
