Lucky me, it’s been hours of sitting at the airport waiting on my brother,
Breck’s, flight to arrive. Every update scrolling across the board rolls
through as either delayed or canceled. Breck’s flight was supposed to arrive
over two hours ago. I’ve texted him a few times to check in, but so far no
one has heard from him. My parents thought it would be fun for me to pick
Breck and his best friend up from the airport.
Zane is practically a member
of our family. The two of them have been inseparable since middle school,
and I’ve spent just as much time hanging around as the annoying little
sister. Going to colleges on different coasts was never part of the plan, but
Breck didn’t get into Yale and no way were Zane’s parents going to let him
attend a back-up school just so the two of them could stay in a dorm
together.
I sigh loudly, then quickly glance at the people next to me, making sure
no one is staring at me. All around the busy airport, loved ones snuggle in,
mindlessly scrolling phones or watching the TVs and their coverage of the
storm. The once eager and happy children excitedly asking how much
longer until the plane lands have turned into gremlins, crying and screaming
for cartoons or begging for a snack.
I tune it all out, and have never been
more thankful for my headphones. Breck understands me better than
anyone else, which is why these were the perfect birthday gift from him. I
roll the cold rose pink case over a few times in my perfectly manicured
hand anxiously.
I haven’t seen either of them since August, which feels like it’s been so
much longer than just four months. Halloween wasn’t the same without
them this year. Every Halloween, for as long as I can remember, the three of
us dressed up in a group theme.
This year I didn’t even go to the costume
party at the country club. It just didn’t feel right; my entire world feels
empty. It’s my senior year of high school and it doesn’t even feel like it. I
take college classes online through a program my parents pay extra for that
allows me to work ahead. I’ve been attending an exclusive, online school
since sixth grade.
My parents, having realized my brother and I are both
incredibly smart, filled our schedules with violin and piano lessons. They
packed in private lessons for learning almost every language imaginable,
and then there was the tutoring pod. We shared pod tutors with other
families in the club, hosted at the clubhouse every Tuesday and Thursday.
SAT scores, after all, are the most important part of getting into a good
school. I have my sights set on Brown. The boys both intended to attend
Yale, but Breck had to accept Stanford when he didn’t get admitted. I keep
telling myself next year will be better; surrounded by new friends and
thousands of miles away from my stuffy, lonely life here.
