Love Found Her

Ivy Robin a 23 year old lady, is a passenger of the KLM flight landing at 9:45am in New York City. She looked so happy to be back home almost forgetting how she cried while saying goodbye to her friends, Megan and Junette, before getting into the plane. She had her headphone dangling from her neck, she was listening to music while she drifted in thoughts and all she needed was some quite moment to think about home and what awaits her. She thought of how her family and few friends will be so happy to have her back home. She also reviewed how her life was in the past months which seemed like it would take eternity before the long awaited month will come. She smiled to herself making her dimples grow large and deep like a well. Her cute round pretty face glimmed with so much excitement and she could feel butterflies in her stomach. She thought about her mother's delicious delicacies and now she can smell aroma of her mother's foods into her nostrils and deep into her stomach. It was this familiar feeling that filled her entire body from her bregmatic suture to the 5mm skin on the palm of her foot. Home was calling she said in her head and kept smilling foolishly not until she noticed the fat woman beside her was giving her a weird look and she had to calm down and act okay. She had been away for almost a year, she left home on the 16th of January when she got admission into a Prestigious College at Mexico to study Medicine. College has been hectic for her who was just 22 years as of then, coping with the new environment was really a tough one and her 23rd birthday was the most boring for she was all alone and sad. She barely talked to anyone and kept her space. Lonely and bored, school was no fun, it was always books and more tedious works. she was always home sick and day dreamed of lovely moments at home. The sweet delicious meals her mother always cooked, her siblings- Kate who was 20 years old and shares secrets with her although she can be so annoying and immature, Lyra is an 18year old pretty damsel , Amy was just 15 years old with short hair that made her look like a dull & Steph was 12 year old and looked like Father's carbon copy with thick dark hair and pointed nose which gave him a snowman looks. Although she always keeps in touch with them to make sure she is being updated but that didn't stop her from missing her family. Perhaps the daily pictures they send to her made her yearn more. And now as she alighted from the plane, she felt a growling sound in her stomach, like a baby bear was there and it made her clutch her stomach quickly as thou she was been punched. It isn't hunger or maybe it is, it is definitely hunger and longing for home. Ivy lived in New York along with her family for donkey years and the familiar sweet breeze of her town was smilling to her face making her long dark silky hair dance in the air. Her teeths glitched with excitement and her cheeks flickered with the breeze. The snow was falling peacefully like it was asleep and didn't want to be disturbed. The weather was chill and sweet, enticingly cold. She walked swiftly through the crowd trying to scan through to search for her family. She was dressed in Black boots and a tight leather Jean trouser that made her round big hips more prominent. A white vest covered by a thick leather jacket that matched with her trouser and a chain suspended down her neck. With her suitcases she made her way out of the crowd and looked across for the red family Camry car but couldn't sight any. Then she picked her phone to call Kate but then was interrupted by the sudden hugs and shouts from behind. "Welcome home Sis" they chorused. She turned around to see her whole family looking happy and hearty. It was a moment of hugs and smiles. Mother poked her hair while Kate teased her saying she was becoming plumpy and more like a big sis now. She smiled and poked her hair, Of course she left home skinny and skimpy yet pretty. And now she was all matured and full in the right places. After rounds of hugs and warm embrace, Father cajoled everyone to get into the car while beaming brightly. His round cheeks reminded Ivy of her looks and she always wondered if she looks more like her Mom or Dad. Her Father was in his late 50's and had a semi round tommy which fits into his tall height. One would barely notice his stomach except he was in skimpy clothes. His fair complexion and thick brows made him uniquely handsome while her mom was an elegant woman in her mid 40's. Also tall and has a great physique with long black thick hair and waved down to her back and Ivy was grateful for such endowment. While everyone crossed over to the car dragging her luggage, Ivy stood shocked unable to make a move. Lyra was the first to notice that Ivy was stagnant with mouth opened in awe. " Sister Ivy, come over quickly" she said smilling sweetly and waving her hand gesturing to Ivy. " The Car !!!" Ivy exclaimed while trying to cross over jiggly. Mom smiled and said "Well Ivy it's your first surprise" . "Three months ago your Father changed his car". At first Ivy felt a sting in her heart, That sharp stap of betrayal gushing out anger from the cut. Everyone kept this goodnews away from her for three months. Did they really feel she shouldn't be told about it? Or they now considered her a stranger?. Mom would always ask for her advice for the slightest thing before purchasing . Well, she lightened up after all it was a great surprise and she wasn't just surprised but shocked. It was a Black classy Ford with dark tints that made it look so flashy. Ivy smiled and got into the car where it was a question and answer period. And as they drove, they chatted happily asking her about life out there and how she coped with the new environment. As they drove to the house, Ivy focused on the streets recalling beautiful scenes and different spots which made her so happy to be back hope for Christmas. The thoughts of that alone gave her goose bumps. "It's good to be back home" she said, almost in a whisper. She had so many plans and places to visit. It was at this point that father swirled the car to the left instead of the right which led to the area they lived. Ivy got confused, she kept wondering why father followed the opposite direction and everyone seemed okay with it. She had barely opened her mouth to speak when father said "Kids it's time" while looking back using the front mirror and an evil smile escaped his face. "Time for what"? Ivy said confused, Mother smiled sweetly at Ivy and then she felt a black fibre, like a mask been worn on her head covering her eyes. She felt thick clouds of darkness gathering while everyone laughed cheerfully.
