| �What happen today?� message my friend. My friend and me were chatting over the internet.
�I said I am sorry and I left him. He came after in the car and pick me up. It�s like he just forgot about it.� �Wereid� anyway so what time are you leaving tomorrow?� �933 at night, I can�t believe my parents told me so late.� �Yeah, I�ll be missing you.� �I�ll miss you Nikkie� I logged off as I go to the other room to start packing. I am headed off to New York because my dad was a doctor. He was promoted and got a job in a hospital. He told me 2 weeks before and I was mad. I couldn�t believe that my dad would move to another state just to get a better job. Although he did say that his skills are need at other places. He is an emergency pediatrics surgeon at St. Francis West. I wish I knew earlier. Everything I had to drop, my school, my friends, my relationship. It�s mostly my whole life just gone. My mom said you will get it back at New York. You can�t get back those memories ever. If you can, then they are not memories at all. They would be called material possession. It�s late into the night 12:18 and mostly what�s left was my laptop and my bed. Everything is already packed up and ready to go. My room so bare, it felt like my heart. I reminse all the times I spent here in Hawaii. Dreaming of those summer days and walking those winter nights. That was the truly Hawaiian spirit. I took my jacket out of the pack to go outside. In the middle of spring it is still cold. I went out to see the emerald lawn at night. My parents were asleep and I was quite. I can�t believe we are still going. I lye down on the lawn and stared at the sky. I tried to move them with my fingers. �I can�t hang on any longer� I said quitely to my self. I took a step around the lawn and to the garage. I woke up my dad as I enter back into the house. He told me to get some sleep, it�s a big day tomorrow. Big day, how does he expect me to sleep with all these feelings falling from me. Sadly I went to bed and trying tried to sleep. I didn�t cried though, I wanted to. I wanted to let all my feelings go. For some reason I wasn�t able to let go of my feelings. I woke up the next day to know it would be the last day on this island. �I�ll miss it as I lay in bed.� I got up and got ready. My mom said we were going someplace right before going. I expected it to be a going away party, but instead it was just a tour around the island. They were also going to miss this place. All of these sacrifices to help other people to come to this place and feel it�s presence. We stop by North Shore and got out. It was a beautiful site as the snow white waves crash down on to the tawny shores. �Unbelievable� the word popped into my head. I can�t believe I remembering that date, where he took me to this beach for senior luau. We got back into the car and headed for the airport. It was a long torture as I stand in the line. My tears were pouring as we took the walk to the gate. They called in our seats and were about to go, when I hear my name yelled through out the building. �Fei, don�t go.� It was a familiar voice, it might be just my imagination. From my mind to not go on the plane, although I have to go. I gave my ticket and step on the plan forgetting my past. I should�ve waited, I should�ve not gone. Leon was waiting for me. He was yelling my name, he was there till the very end. I should have just waited for him. |
