As what my mom had promised to me, she pay me of having an out-of-town short vacation with her. It’s already eleven thirty noon. The plane circled the airport twice and I felt the smooth dropping begin. The wheels bumped ground. The engines roared. As I look out the window, the terminal was just below and the temperature outside is far different from the chilliness I felt inside the plane. My mom began to handed down our bags as well as me stirred from excitement.
When the line of passengers began to move, we walked down to the aisle and out into the chute that led to terminal. Nate, a third degree cousin of mine, will meet us on the airport. As we emerged into the terminal, we looked for him in the crowd at the gate. My mom saw him and she waved at him. He began sidling his way towards us and just like the sort of thing most people do to arriving travelers, he kissed and embraced my mom. I only glance at him warily and he said “Hey Stella, nice to see you again”. He carried our bags heading to the car. We walked the short distance to the car.
We’re on our way to Nate’s residence to where we are going to spend the rest of our stay here in Manila. So, as I was saying to myself earlier right after we laid down to the plane, I’m going to have a good stay in here. Then again, welcome to the nostalgic city.
We drove the few miles in silence, listening to the old songs had been playing in the radio. I just stare outside the window and gazing every view on the road, the buildings and the like. It took almost 2 hours of arriving home yet I haven’t feel any starvation may be because of the warm pleasure I felt.
We’re only a few of remaining blocks away. Tita Lily, Nate’s mom, meet us halfway from the gate. She held out her arms in welcome and hugged me, pressing her face against mine. She told us tenderly “Welcome home!”.
