Chapter 11
Rocky sped off down the road, glancing in the rear view mirror at his friends shocked faces. He knew when he returned he had a lot of explaining to do, but first he had some explaining to do to Kim. He was hoping that she wouldn't ignore him but then again he wouldn't have blamed her if she had after he'd been such a jerk to her last night. He had no idea what time her flight was or which gate it was all he knew was that he had to catch her.
"C'mon man put your foot down a bit or get outta my way". Rocky yelled as he honked the horn.
All the way to the airport the only thing running through his mind was visions of Kim, like the way she twitched her nose before she smiled, the way she laughed, how her big brown eyes showed her mood - they twinkled when she was feeling mischievous, they were dull when she was sad and they sparkled when she was happy. Everything about her he loved, even when she and Aisha picked on him.
Before he knew it he was entering the Airport grounds, He sped up to the loading and dropping off bay and parked quickly then jumped out, locked the car and began running inside. Just as he got to the doors a oldish guy dressed in a navy suite with yellow bands around the sleeves and collar wirth a name tag that said Larry Stevenson - Parking attendent stepped infront of him and shook his head.
"I'm sorry Sir, you can't leave your car there". He said in a well mannered tone.
"I have'nt got time to park it up, I need to go tell the girl of my dreams that I love her". Rocky tried pushing past him.
"I'm sorry Sir, if you leave your vehicle there I wil be forced to have it clamped or towed away". The parking attendent told him calmly.
"Ok". Rocky began walking away, but then quickly turned and managed to dive past the guy and sped through the main lobby. He spotted the help desk and ran up to the young lady sat behind it. "'scuse me ma'am but what gate is the flight to florida"? Rocky panted.
"That would be gate H12, it should beleaving in about 15 minutes, you should make it". The lady answered but Rocky didn't hear anything after the word H12 as he was off running in the direction the signs pointed.
He was running so quick people were moving out of his way, he didn't notice anything around him except the way he had to go. Eventually he reached the H section of the airport and ran passed all the doors. Suddenly the woman stood at the gate began to close the door.
"NO".Rocky yelled at the top of his voice as he finally reached the door.
"I'm sorry Sir, your too late, the flight is leaving now". The woman said making sure the door was securly shut then walking away.
"Shit". Rocky said to himself as he kicked the bottom of the door then walked to the window to see if he could see the plane. "Great, just great". Rocky banged his head on the glass.
"Rocky"? A familiar voice asked behind him. He turned slowly and stood in ore.
"Kim, I thought you had, why are you still here?Aren't you supposed to be on the flight"? Rocky asked as he pointed toward the door behind him.
"Unless I'm bound for Haiwaii, I don't think so, that's gate 11". Kim laughed.
"Ok". Rocky had to laugh at himself.
"What are you doing here"? Kim asked.
"I came to say goodbye, my car broke down so I missed you at the youth center". Rocky said stepping forward and giving her a hug.
"You've chased me all this way just to say Goodbye, you could have wrote or rung to say that"!
"I also wanted to tell you that I, well I um LOVE YOU". Rocky blurted out loud enough for the whole queue to hear.
