💮 chapter 1 💮
Zeinab POV
I was at Nsimalen International airport bidding everybody good bye. I am going to miss them so much. I have never being out of the country but here I am leaving my motherland. It is not easy to leave a place where you were born and lived at but I had to no matter how difficult it is. It is a one life chance and I have to grab it. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realise the panda bear known as my ghosty Nadia hugging the living light out of me. We call each other ghosty because we are best friends for life and after we die we will hunt people together. Silly I know but it is us."I am going to miss you ghosty" said Nadia. " I am going to miss you too panda". " Call me everyday". I smiled and answered " I promise" .
We were crying when they announced that I had to go. I hug everyone again and waved them goodbye. " London here I come" I mumbled to myself and smiled at the other scholars going with me. I took a seat near an old lady and we were immediately asked to buckle our seatbelts up for take off.
After taking off I unbuckled my seatbelt and leaned back in my seat and sighed in content. Then reality crashed on me. I was going to another country, I will not see my parents everyday except on video calls, I will be alone and the most important thing is that I have to COOK and WASH the dishes ohhh Ya ALLAH it is horrible. I know I am a girl but I don't like cooking and being the clumsy me I doesn't help at all. Oh that is bad it is really bad. I was freaking out and beating my nails when I looked at the old lady beside looking at me as if I had developed two heads. She sighed and said " youth today" I rolled my eyes and muttered "old people" she glared at me and I turned looking through the window as if it is the most beautiful thing existing ooh look there it is a bird. And it looks beautiful and it is flying.
After one hour of just sitting there and doing nothing I decided to take a nap since it is a twenty hours flight. I took a comfortable position and dozed off.
6 hours later .....
I woke up to a loud snoring beside me then I turned to meet the old lady sleeping. I was stretching myself like a cat receiving weird looks from people around I didn't care. After checking the time I realised I still have thirteen hours flight. Then the flight attendant came I asked if I wanted to have something. At the moment my stomach decided that it was the perfect moment to embarrass me and made a loud sound. The attendant giggled I said " I will be back with your food". " Okay thanks" .
Then proceeded to take a comfortable position to wait for my food. Eating and sleeping are my favourite activities. The love of my life is my bed and I live to eat. Stupid I know but it is me. After eating, knowing that I will be awake for the next hours I decided to listen to music. I didn't know how time flew but the next thing I know is that I was sleeping and dreaming about my knights in shining armors the BTS members and Chris Hemsworth. I woke up to someone shaking me and I realised we are about to land.
I fastened my seatbelt and waited for the plane to land.
I stretched and got down the plane with other passengers. The four of us scholars students were guided to a black car and we took off for Cambridge university.
We are welcomed by the dean and we were asked to follow her so that she should show us our dorm rooms. All the other scholars had their room except me because there were no more rooms.
They asked the driver to take me to a hotel and my problem will be fixed tomorrow. Upon arriving the room that was booked for me I did my prayers then hit the bed and slept.
