"Now a part of them will be here forever." Kyra says.

Kyra and I have a moment to ourselves then we move to a different part of the summit and pose for more pictures.

We pose with the flags of our family, which are Norway, Ghana, and Sierra Leone.

We pose by ourselves and with each other then we take a few group expedition pictures.

After the group photo's, Kyra and I take photo's of the view and video the view we have from the summit.

Once we've done all we can do at the summit, we put our oxygen masks on and put on our backpacks.

"Alright twins." Maria says. "Let's head down."

"Qatar Airways Flight 739 is now boarding." Someone says over the PA.

"That's us Ky." I say.

"Finally." Kyra says. "I'm ready to go home."

Once we got down off the mountain, Kyra and I flew from Lukla airport to Tribhuvan International Airport in Katmandu then we spent a few days in Katmandu to rest and recover.

We then flew from Tribhuvan International Airport to Hamad International Airport in Doha, Qatar.

Now we're 16 hours away from being in LA.

"Same." I say then my twin and I grab our stuff and head to the gate.

When we get to the gate Kyra and I hand the gate agent our tickets then we get onto the plane.

Once on the plane Kyra and I are lead to our seats and asked for our drink order, which we give, then we look around our first class seat area. 

"There's a whole fucking shower in here." Kyra says.

"I booked the new executive suite on the airline so we could be in our own little room and sleep in the same bed." I say.

"Can we..."

"Once the plane is in the air we can." I say.

"Yay." Kyra softly cheers.

After Kyra and I have checked out our executive suite, we put our bags away then we sit down and relax with our drinks.

Eventually everyone else gets on the plane so we pull away from the gate.

"Gimme." I say and grab Kyra's hand

"You've done takeoff's like a million times, but now you're scared?" Kyra says.

"I'm in control when flying." I say. "Now it's up to a pilot I've never met."

"Big baby." Kyra mumbles as I shut my eyes and try to relax.

A couple minutes later we finally get in the air so Kyra and I lock our suite then we go shower together.

After our shower, my twin and I dry off, put some loose clothes on, take our contacts out, put our glasses on, put our hair up in head scarves, then we sit down, unlock and open the door, and relax for a little bit.

"Here we are ladies." A stewardess says as she sets our dinner down on the little area in-between my sister and I. "Dinner is served."

"Man that looks good." I mumble.

"What exactly is it?" Kyra asks.

"It is Black Cod with Miso with a side of rice, a side of veggies, and a bowl of miso soup."

"Sweet." My twin and I say.

"Once you're done press the stewardess button and we'll swap out your dishes with dessert."

"Thank you." My twin and I say.

The stewardess nods then she leaves our suite and shuts the door.

"Watcha wanna put on tv?" I ask.

"Is there a movie?" Kyra asks so I search for movies.

"Shark Tales." My twin and I say then I put Shark Tales on.

Once our movie is on, my twin and I pig out on the first good meal we've had in over a month.

"I'm glad that doors shut." I say. "We probably look like pigs."

"Who cares." My twin says. "We just climbed Everest."

I chuckle then I continue eating my dinner.

Once Kyra and I have finished our dinner, we press the button then a few seconds later the same stewardess swaps our dinner dishes for a rectangular dish with five different sorbets on it.

"The flavors are Blueberry, Strawberry, Mango, Lemon-lime, and Orange." The stewardess says.

"Sweet." I say.

"When your done just leave the dish outside your door and we'll leave you two alone until breakfast in the morning." The stewardess says. "Or until you press the button."

"Thank you." My twin and I say.

The stewardess nods then she leaves our suite and shuts the door.

Once the stewardess leaves, my twin and I eat the five different sorbets while continuing to watch our movie.

"That was so good." I say after we've finished.

"Seriously good." Kyra says as she puts the dish outside our door.

Once our dish is outside, Kyra closes and locks our door, then the two of us undress until we're just in boxers and crop tops.

"Ready for bed?" I ask.

My twin nods so we move across the suit to the bed then we get under the covers and cuddle together as we fall asleep.

Right before we fall asleep, my twin speaks.

"I still can't believe we summited." Kyra mumbles.

"Me too Ky." I say as I fall asleep. "Me too."
