The plane descended at the Dulles airport. I felt both nervous and excited at what awaits me. The airport looked so futuristic. Everyone around me looked busy. Except the other first timers like myself. The facial expressions could clearly separate the locals from the new arrivals.
My mother received me at the airport. In tears though we were only separated for 6 months. A lot had happened in those months. I had become paler and thinner. My eyes sunken from exhaustion. It betrayed the state of my health that I tried to hide.
We went straight to the rented place in Baltimore. I was taking everything in. The houses were all so close together. I had never seen townhouses in person before.
My mother had an array of delicious food prepared. She kept offering for me to eat more. She willed me to put on weight in one meal.
