Our Journey

Ch 20

Later night

Carly: "excuse me miss, I'm looking for Elizabeth Chase, do you know where I may find her"

Lizzie: "oh shut up Carly"

Grabbing Lizzie's bags, she places them in the trunk

Carly: "where are you headed today?"

Lizzie: "you are enjoying this too much, aren't you"

She tosses her bag onto the floor of the car and gets in

Carly; "yes I am. where are you headed Ms Chase"

Lizzie: "really."

Carly: "what?"

Chuckling, she playfully elbows Carly's arm

Carly: "so where are you headed?"

Lizzie: "the JFK airport, please"

Carly: "of course"

She starts to drive away

Carly: "excited?"

Lizzie: "I am, I haven't really seen my family since June"

Carly: "wow, that long"

Lizzie: "yeah, my sisters have been really busy"

Carly: "what do they do?"

Lizzie: "they are business women meaning that it's always busy no matter what"

Carly: "I would never want to do that, too much to deal with money"

Lizzie: "agreed. Can I ask you something?"

Carly: "go ahead"

Lizzie: "if you don't make it as a screenwriter or anything in the film industry, what do you want to do?"

Carly: "I never really thought about it. I would probably work with my parents, my family has a small business. It's not my first choice to work in business but if I have to, at least it's the family business"

Lizzie: "really, what is it?"

Carly: "a carpenter business"

Lizzie: "oh really"

Carly; "my great-grandfather started it up"

Lizzie: "what have you built before?"

Carly takes a second to think

Carly; "I've built benches, planters, and a wooden trunk for one of my friends. but I've also done bunch of different things"

Lizzi: "can I commission you for something?"

Carly; "it depends on what you want"

Lizzie: "I will get back to you on that"

They both laugh

Lizzie: "have you finished packing for your flight tomorrow?"

Carly: "yup."

Lizzie: "Carly"

Carly:" yes Lizzie"

Lizzie: "you're lying"

Carly: "what! No, me! How could you accuse me of lying about packing for my flight?"

Lizzie: "I'm not accusing because I know it's true. You do this little hand thing when you get nervous and or lying"

Carly: "I have no idea what youre talking about"

Lizzie: "see! That, that right there!"

Carly: "shut up! Youre lucky I am taking you"

Lizzie: "you didn't have to"

Carly: "well I saved you from spending 20 bucks"

Lizzie: "you did save me 20 dollars"

Both of the laugh

Carly: "so who's picking you up from the airport when you arrive?"

Lizzie: "it's between my mom and one of my sisters. I probably won't know until I land"

Carly: "the stress of who's picking me up at the airport. the worst kind of stress"

Lizzie: "I know right"

Both of the friends continue to talk until they arrive at teh airport

Carly: "well here you are, that will be $100"

Lizzie: "oh shut up Carly, i can't with you right now"

They both laugh and get out of teh car

Carly: "let me help you with your bags"

Lizzie: "please"

They both walk to the trunk of the car and start to unload Lizzie's bags from the trunk

Carly: "and that's the last of them"

Lizzie: "thank you so much, Carly"

Carly: "it was no problem Lizzie, text me when you land"

Lizzie: "I will mom"

Both of them laugh and then hug"

Lizzie; "see you in a week"

Carly: "bye"

Lizzie picks up her bag and grabs her suitcase, walking away into the airport
