At the airport she gets out of the car to give me one last hug for a proper goodbye. "Thank you," I say as we embrace "for everything. I couldn't have imagined such a wonderful trip. It was perfect."
"Perfect is the exact word I was thinking. I hope it won't be the last time you visit me, though, nephew. This city has so much to offer and you barely saw anything" she finishes devilishly. We share a quick kiss and she says "Have a safe trip home. Love you and hope to see you soon!"
"Love you too!" I say. I watch her get back into her car and drive off. Sullenly, I walk through the airport knowing my vacation had ended and that the next stage in my life would begin. I would become a working man. I was flying back to long work days and more responsibility than I ever had. Luckily, I would be making good money...money that I would hopefully use for another trip to visit my beautiful aunt Alex...
Share the love
