Wake up (the great adventure Part 2)

A Story by Lizardo

The flight time to get to London was about 16 hours and I had a lot of time to waste in the airplane. Since I’m an airplane geek, I wanted to ask if I could go to the cabin and talk with the captain and everything but, there was one problem, I was too afraid to ask.

You see the main plot about the flight to Europe was to make me less scare of myself since I’m timid. It was time for me to wake up. But I wasn’t going to change in a matter of seconds and I was still afraid to ask and the other thing would be if they let me in, since airplane nowadays are really protected from the 9/11 attack.

Instead of asking I turned on the little T.V that they had on the airplane, I was really bored so I had no choice. The T.V was kind of small, but it was loaded with many movies and games, so that’s how I wasted my time for at least 2 hours.

I was flying in first class so I didn’t have to worry about many things, it was wonderful flying in first class it make you feel first class, Get it? First class and it made you feel like you were first class? Never mind, I’ll have to work on that one.

Most of the time I slept until the big time came, we were ready for landing at Heathrow airport and as the plane grew closer to the ground a became more anxious and then we touch down.

The airport was really crowded! I could barely take a step, but, thank god I was carrying only one bag, you wouldn’t believe the mess of bags that appeared from the first terminal it was chaos everywhere. I checked my passport and when I went outside a man with a nice Tuxedo was waiting for me with big letters that said: CESAR

At that moment I knew he was talking about me. You retard I called myself, who else would be Cesar coming from the U.S? The man looked like he was in his thirties.

As soon as I got him, he asked me: ‘’Are you Cesar Martens?’’

‘’Yes, yes I am’’ I answered with a nervous feeling in my mouth

‘’Alright then, let’s go to your hotel’’

LONDON! Wow, I was amazed by the great city, the London eye, Big Ben, everything was really nice. The hotel was a luxurious one, for a boy of my age, I was really surprised about it, although the driver who traveled me here wasn’t.

He threw me a card, yes he threw me a card where it had his numbered I didn’t even get the possibility to ask for his name, after that he just said:

‘’If you need anything Cesar, call me, I know London pretty well’’

And the car flew out of there like a lightning.

I ask for a nice room and after I few minutes of checking they gave me this luxurious room that I had everything, literally everything. The Bed was covered with really sophisticated pillows, it had a refrigerator, the shower and the bathroom very cleaned,

A Plasma T.V I think it was Sony and just that, really nice place.

I was really tired from the flight, we had arrived at night so the first thing that I did was go to sleep and wake up until the morning.

It was already 9 A.M and I decided to take a walk around the city I usually did that in Los Angeles, go running at 5 A.M but I saw the time had slipped from my hands.

I didn’t care, for once in my life I had been thinking of something else, the words that my father told me: ‘’It’s time to wake up Cesar, you need to defeat those fears you have, that’s why I’m letting you go to Europe, you need to work things out how you feel is correct not how others tell you’’.
