Mum and Dad called Me, Shayleigh and Ali to the car. I kissed Grandpa and Gran goodbye and that brough tears to my eyes. My mascara smudged and tears left stains on my cheeks. I hugged my two cousins goodbye and my Aunt Betty and Uncle Jaye'. I slid into the car mopping myself with a smooth, velvet tissue. I clung on to Shayleigh and Ali and cried into their sweatshirts. We sped to the airport. I was second  best at English because I had lived there half my life with Mum. We lugged our suitcases into the airport and waited for our plane to arrive. 

"What if the plane crashes and then we die?" Fussed shayleigh.

I rolled my eyes and shook my head explaining it would be okay but then I started to have my own doubts but I had to tell myself everything would be okay. Our plane arrived and we rushed to get in live to get onto the plane. We soon got onto the plane and got our sucky sweets ready and we popped them in  our mouths as we took off. Taking off was like being on a rollercoaster that flew into the air and came off the tracks. We flew above the marshmallow clouds. I heard Shayleigh being violently sick and Ali complaining and heaving loudly. The skies were so smooth and colorful nothing like the japanese ones. I dozed off dreaming of a british flat and bright skies.
