88. Goodbyes

SAM'S POV :

Lily called and informed me that Serena is leaving today. I don't care that much about people but I respect Serena. I will meet her at the airport along with Lily and others. That means Myra will also be there ...or not. Who knows?

My phone is ringing. It's my editor. I hate him. Oh no, I am not picking up right now.

Parampura's airport is far away from my house. I think it will take at least one hour to get there especially because of traffic jams.

I will have to inform my mom that I am leaving. She is in the kitchen. Our house is small which is why even if I shout from my room she will still hear it.

" Mom I am leaving. ", I say.

" Where are you going? ", she asks.

Here we go again. It is like she has to know everything in my life. I don't like this. Now if I don't answer her she will be offended.

"I have to go to the airport. ", I say.

" Ok, come back before 7 pm . ", she says and then I leave.

If I ride my cycle to go there I don't think I will be

able to reach there on time. Damn, I have to take the bus.

I wonder if Myra is also going airport via bus. Not that I care but we often run into each other in public places which is weird because she is very rich but who am I kidding she is weird and thrifty. She doesn't like to pay for things.

Ok here is the bus. Looks like Myra isn't here. Oh, there is an empty seat on the bus. I should sit down. The weather is cold today. We can already sense by the weather that winter will arrive shortly. Oh someone sat beside me. It's a middle-aged man. Most probably in his 50s.

" Oh weather is very cold. I wish I never had to go outside. ", he says.

" Well, you seem to be a high school student. My son is also a high school student. But he is very handful. Sometimes I just want to disown but I can't do that. After all, he is my son. ", the man.

Why is he saying these things to me? I think I should just use my phone as I always do. Wait a minute. Where is my phone? It is not in my pocket. Ok, let us check my shirt. No, it is not here either. Don't tell me that I left it at my home. Great...

" You look younger than my son. How old are you? ", he asks.

" I am fifteen plus. ", I answer.

Why doesn't he shut up already?

" Oh you look young for your age. ", he says.

I know that old man. I don't look like a grown-up. My facial hair has not appeared. But it is not like I am doing it on purpose. Even Myra pointed that out. But I think my mustache is grown a bit. And I am also very tall. I don't understand why people make fun of me for something like that. Ok, next time I am going to write a story on this issue.

Finally, I am at the airport. But how am I supposed to contact Lily? I don't have my phone with me. I think I should just wait at the entrance. Knowing Lily she will surely arrive late which means Serena will also be late.

They have renovated the airport. I think I should examine its basic structure because I always suck at describing airports while writing my stories. Ok, the terminal is over there. There are guards all over the airport, especially at the last checking point.

" Sam...You are here already. ", Lily with luggage in her hands.

I knew she will be late.

" Not everyone is careless like you. ", Serena holding a trolley and they put bags in the trolley.

" Why is everyone in such a hurry? Life is long you should take it easy. ", Lily.

" This is the first time I have heard someone saying something like that. ", Claire.

" Where are Lucas and Myra?", Claire.

" Lucas is busy because of the academy and Myra is not picking up her phone. ", Lily.

" Wait let me call her. ", Claire.

" I don't think she knows that Serena is leaving

today. ", Lily.

" Oh no ...Now what?", Claire.

" I messaged her yesterday but she has not checked the message yet. ", Serena.

" I guess you have to leave now. They have announced that flights of your plane need to get their boarding passes. ", Lily informs Serena.

I wonder what Myra is doing. I know that she cares about Serena. So where is she?

MYRA'S POV :

I just checked my phone and read a message from Serena. She is leaving. Thank God that I am coming back yesterday. I asked the driver to drop me there as soon as I saw the message. I need to get there. What if I won't be able to see her today? I want to see her for the last time. After all, we spend almost a year together. I have to see her no matter what.

" Can you drive a little faster?", I ask the driver.

" I am sorry. I can't we are ok the main road. It can cause accidents. ", he says.

Oh God please let me see her. I want to see her no matter what.

Finally, we are at the airport. There are still 45 minutes before her flight.

" Excuse me. Please excuse me ...", I swear I haven't run this fast for more than ten years. Oh, I can see Sam. But where are the others?

" Sam, where is Serena? ", I ask him.

He looks at me with a bored expression then smiles.

" What? ", I ask.

" Your hair looks like a bird's nest and I don't even want to look at your face . ", he says.

Oh God, he is so annoying. Can't he see that I am in a hurry?

" So you finally decided to show up. ", Serena.
