Chapter Eight

Oliver had never been on an airplane before, but there was a first time for everything, including having a first time away from his grandparents.

His bags were all packed, double-checked to make sure that he hadn’t forgotten anything, and triple-checked for the same reason. Oliver would have checked his bag for the fourth time, but his grandmother wouldn’t let him. “You’re just being anxious. There’s nothing actually wrong. It’s normal for someone to feel this way before they go through a big change,” she told him.

Oliver’s grandmother was acting stronger than he would have thought she could be. His grandmother had a habit of being emotional sometimes, like how she cried during weddings and sad movies. If he didn’t know any better, he would have thought that she didn’t care that he was leaving. He knew that couldn’t be the case, though. She was putting up a strong front so he wouldn’t be scared about leaving. It was a hard thing to do, and Oliver appreciated that she was staying strong. If she wasn’t, Oliver wasn’t sure that he could.

No one talked much on the car ride to the airport. The atmosphere around the family felt tense and sad. No one was mad at each other, but Oliver could tell that everyone was a bit nervous, even his grandfather, who was usually more relaxed than anyone Oliver knew.

Luckily, the airport was just loud and crazy enough to break the awkward silence between the family members. In fact, it was so loud that Oliver could hardly hear himself think! He held tight onto his suitcase and made sure that his backpack wasn’t open. The rest of his things would be mailed to him, and he was glad that he didn’t need to worry about watching over a dozen boxes, too. He was also glad to have his grandparents walking closely to him. If he was any younger, he would have held their hands so he could be sure he wouldn’t get lost.

Oliver’s grandmother did all of the talking to get his ticket, but when it came time to go through airport security, it was also time to say goodbye. Oliver set down his bags for the first time since entering the airport and he turned to his grandparents. Like many other moments in his life, Oliver was at a loss for words, and for once in his life, his grandmother was too. No one said anything for a long time. Instead, they just hugged each other tightly, which said more than words ever could.

After the hug broke up, Oliver picked up his bags and turned towards the security section. He walked for a little while before turning back, only to see his grandparents smiling and waving at him. He did the same. For some reason, seeing that his grandparents didn’t leave right after the hug made Oliver feel much better. Sure, he knew they would be leaving soon, but it was nice to know they were seeing him off.

A few minutes later, Oliver was on the plane and getting ready to take off.
