New York- The City has been my home for a long time. This is where I started a new chapter of my life. I made my own empire down here with my own blood and sweat, which I can proudly say to everyone who once said that I am nothing and could achieve nothing. As the Amstrong Jet descents to JFK airport, I peek a final look through the side window at the vastness and beauty of the City. It feels good to be finally home, but my mind is still wandering in the green scottish borders of Grace Town.
I went there to find a closure and bid my final goodbye to the town that changed my life. I wanted to see the places where I spend most of my childhood and teenage before I move on. But the town awoke my memories and entrapped my heart in it, so that wherever I go, it would follow me. I was filled with anger and revenge for my cursed past that I wanted to burn down the town when I decided to go to the Reunion, yet here I come back without any payback. All I did was give something for them when they tried to take everything from me. But I am back with an answer that I couldn't find before for my future, I found what I need the most - a family.
"Hazel, What are you thinking?" Will asks.
I turned my head from window to look at him. I feel so lucky to sit here beside him despite everything. He is the only person who stood by my side like a pillar during my hard times. He waited for me and gave me space before I understand what I really need. He waited and I choose him for my hope. If it wasn't for him, I would never be Hazel Amstrong. I would never be alive like I am now. I gave him a peck in his cheek.
"Nothing. I can't wait to be back home." I smiled as I said.
"You look different now than before."
"Different how?"
"You look happy."
"I am happy."
"You weren't this happy since the past 7 years I know you. This Reunion turned out to be good for you than I expected."
This reunion was better than what I expected too. I am happy that it's over and I can finally come home. I am happy that I got my closure, that I got back my best friends. I am happy that I finally opened my eyes to accept what I have beside me, a family that was waiting for me and a man who truly loves me and wants me.
My phone pings with a new message.
Mia: Arrived safe back home?
Before I can reply, the pilot announced about the landing.
"Who was it?" Will asked.
"It's Mia asking whether we landed."
The flight land and I followed Will to the car waiting for us on the airport. I breathe fresh morning air of New York before I climb into our car. My nerves are beating faster becuase of my excitement to go back to my home.
The car starts to drive us to our destination. I started messaging back Mia in this oppurtunity.
'Yes. We landed safe. How is your baby?'
My phone pings as soon as my message was recieved on the other side.
Mia: He is sleeping like a baby. Well isn't that what he is suppose to do sleep and drink my milk.
Me: Uff... Mia. Anyways did you go back to your home or are you still at Rayn's?
Mia: We are still at Rayn's. The Doc said it's not good for the baby to fly at this stage. We will go after one more week. Besides, we need to help in the project.
Me: Okay. Good to know the project is processing smoothly. Do you guys need team from here? They could speed up the process from our latest nano technology machine.
