Jennifer's POV


The next morning I wake up and go downstairs to my new kitchen to make some breakfast. I result in eating toast and sit down in an armchair in the sitting room which has the best view of the TV.

 I pick up the remote and flick onto the music channel and happily sit and watch it whilst eating your toast. My parents come down to get their breakfast and my father tells me he wants me out of the house today so that he can work.

"Why don't you go have a walk along the beach today" my mother suggest to me. "I might" I reply whilst putting my plate into the sink.

 I run upstairs and try to find something to wear. I end up in blue denim shorts, red top and red shoes.

I put a matching hair band into my hair after brushing it with my new brush. After I have brushed my teeth I pack a small bag with my phone, sunglasses, money and my  iPod.

I go downstairs to find my father sitting at the kitchen table with his new boss.

"I'm going out" I call out to them. "Ok be careful" He shouts back as I close the front door behind me.

 I walk to the beach, it only takes me ten minutes to get there and I sit down on the sand and take in the world around me. I admire the bright blue sky and the waves rolling in from the sea just lying on the sand.

I glance over to the boat dock and see a man on one of the boats. "Ive never been on a boat like that" I think to myself. I get up off the sand and slowly walk over to the boat and notice it's the same man that was at our house last night and can't help but smile.

 I notice he is struggling to untie the knot in the rope keeping his boat at the dock. "Need any help" I say to him. "Any good at knots?" He asks before holding up the rope in his hand. "I'll have a go" I reply.

I climb onto the boat and take the rope from him and untie it in the first try. "Thanks" He says to me.

"IamHarry by the way" He says before holding his hand out to shake mine. I shake his hand. "I'm..." I begin. "I know who you are" He stops me.

"Your dad works with mine" He says with a smile on his face.

 "So you were the one in my house last night" I add.

"I believe I was yes" He says whilst laughing. "Is this your boat" I ask him.

"It sure is" He replies. "Would you like to go for a ride on it?" He adds

"I......" I begin then hear my mother's voice calling me.

"I'd love to but I have to go" I say to him.

 "Maybe I'll catch you around then" He asks. "Yes you will" I say before smiling.

"Goodbye" He says to me.

 "Bye Harry" I say before running over to where my mother is standing.

"He's not bad" my mother says to me before winking at me.

 "MOM!!!" I shout before running off ahead of her with such a huge smile on my face as I look back to the boat on which he stands in the boat dock.
