Astrid alighted from the airplane, breathing in the fresh air as she removed her spectacles.
She is no longer the girl who can't see without glasses. The city's familiar sounds and smells enveloped her, there is still no change. But she is so happy she is back as a new person.
The experiences of the past months had transformed her, and she could sense the difference within herself.
As she scanned the crowded airport, her eyes landed on a familiar figure, Mr. Jenkins.
He was standing by the exit, a warm smile on his face, and a hint of relief in his eyes. "Young Miss, this way," he said, beckoning her to follow him.
She smiled, feeling a sense of comfort and security as she trailed behind him.
They navigated through the throngs of people, and she couldn't help but notice the admiring glances cast her way.
