"Three hours," I say.
"Are you sure that’s enough time?"
Sarah asks.
She’s always been the cautious one of us two, and I love her for it.
She makes me think of things I wouldn’t otherwise, like how much time we need to get to the slingshot.
It’s three hours until launch, which means we have just enough time to get there and get in our seats before the countdown begins.
We both know that this is going to be a once in a lifetime experience, and we’re both excited.
I have my purse slung over my shoulder and Sarah has her duffel bag, which means we’re both ready to go.
We walk out of our apartment and down the hall toward the elevator.
Neither of us says anything as we wait for the doors to open.
It’s not a long wait, but I always tap my foot impatiently when I’m waiting for anything.
