Personal Narrative

The day finally came for me to leave, I had packed my things that morning in a mournful mood that morning.I did not want to go to nana’s but mom kept telling me it was for the better, over and over again like a broken record.After I said goodbye to mom I had gotten on the plane and put on my seatbelt, the ride was supposed to be short so I would only have around 30 minutes to contain my thoughts on how things would be.Mid-flight I reached in my backpack and grabbed my dad’s ball.I started wondering off into though, honestly I was more afraid than upset, what if nana did not like me?What if I did not fit in, this was like school all over again, which only made me upset again.The plane had landed and the flight attendant came.

“Your grandma

is waiting outside for you sweetheart let's go and walk you to her.”Said the flight attendant.I looked up at her as I put my baseball in my backpack.I replied with a simple smile, I did not want to rude just because I was in a bad mood.As we make our way outside on the plane and into the airport nana is standing right in the middle of everyone walking out.She runs up to me and hugs me which makes me drop my stuff.
“Izzy!

I am so happy to see you.” she yelled in excitement.

“Oh nana how I’ve missed you so.” I said, I tried holding in my sarcasm and groaned instead.she let go and looked at me oddly while scanning my

body
“You have grown so much I remember when you were just this small I used to change your diapers and help out your mom.” she said
“Thanks nana, can we go now?”She then looks at me and smiles.
“Sure sweetie you must be dying to see your room”she said in a calm tone.She then grabbed my stuff and we went to get a taxi.The village was far away from most of the city so it took about an hour to get there.When we had gotten to the village nana had grabbed my stuff again and helped me out of the taxi and showed me the way to her house, on our way there some of the children from the village stared at me, it made me feel out of place.We had finally gotten to her house.Nana’s house was a small orange and white home that was pretty cute and cosy she had shown me to my room which was full of tiny bears and cute lacy blankets.
“This use to be my room when I was your age, I hope you like it.” she whispered.

“It’s nice and pink, very pink.” I said, not that I mined I thought it was pleasant and different from my room.I thought to myself maybe things will not be so bad.

“I’ll leave you to unpack.” said nana.

“Thanks nana.” I said.I began unpack when I realized I couldn’t find my baseball.A large amount of panic suddenly came over me.That ball is the only thing I have left of him it must be here somewhere!I took everything out and it wasn’t in my bag, I quickly ran towards nana and asked her if she knew where my ball went.

“No izzy, I did not see you ball i’m sorry.” she said. I had only been here for a few hours and things are already not going my way.I decided to run around the village and see if nana dropped it somewhere when she took my stuff.It was sundown now and I could not find it anywhere, I felt sick inside.A few villagers were suddenly calling my name.I guess nana had been looking for me I should go and find her.She suddenly came up behind me and hugged me

“Izzy i know you're upset, I will get you a new ball.”she said calmly

“No! I do not want just any ball I want my Ball!” I said.As i pushed her away i

said
“It was dad’s ball, the thing only thing I have left of him!.”
