Second Chance

Brianna

We arrived at the house and I was getting nervous. I really didn't want them to hate me, I needed to do everything I can to get that money. My nerves are getting the best of me, I have to stay calm, this is just like another job no biggie; right? Drake did mention there house was on the beach so maybe I can go surfing that always does the trick when I'm nervous.

"Hey don't worry their not here yet, they went to go get some things so you have a little time to yourself to breathe and calm down." he said setting the bags down and opened the door.

Once I stepped into that house I was in awe on how amazing it looked. There was a golden chandelier right above me in the main room like how cool is that. It must be a dream because I just couldn't believe that I was standing right under it.

"Your parents house is so beautiful Drake, especially since its on the beach that is just a dream itself." I said.

"This is just the beginning." he laughed. He turned around and switched a light on, and I didn't know what switch it was, but once that light was on I was more and more amazed that I was glowing. Am I going to meet the king and queen or what. If they are this rich then what would they say when they meet me. They might thing of me of a poor young girl with no life. I mean I have two jobs, that just explains everything right there, I just hope they wont judge me for my ranking and just judge me off my personality.

"Come on let me show you to our room." He said grabbing my hand and I guess I was so into my thoughts that I didn't even notice the maid or whoever came to get our bags. We walked up the stairs and we had passed by so many rooms until finally we came to a stop in front of a room that had Drakes name on it. Once he opened the door I just stared at the first thing I saw, the ocean. He had the great view of the ocean and it was just amazing. I didn't really care about the room I was just in love with the view.

"This view reminds me of my mother," I said walking on to the patio. "With what my father has told me in all the stories about her you should have seen his face. No matter what he would always smile and his face would lite up when he mentioned her name, it was like he was seeing it right there and then. even though I never knew her I have dreams about her and can picture her on her surfboard feeling the water with her finger tips. My father would always try to make the stories as real a possible for me. My dad loved my mother and I knew my mother had to have loved my dad.

"Everyone would always tell me I'm just like her in every way. Her every feature, her dislikes, her likes, and they say I even look like her. Her smile, her laugh, her big brown eyes full of wonder. Even though she wasn't there physically I knew she was there in my heart and behind the curtains. I felt like she was there for every moment in my life like; she was there for my first step, first word, first day of school, my up and downs, everything. She didn't miss out."

"My mother was a part of me and I'm a part of her in every way possible. No matter what people would say I am my mothers daughter. And without my parents I wouldn't be where I am today." I looked at Drake and he was listening to every word then it hit me. I shook my head and came into reality. "But I do know that I cant loose my father. He is the only true family I have and if he die I will too. So I would do whatever it takes to keep him here a little longer until it is actually his time to go. Until then I will save him!" I looked straight out into the sunrise and it felt warming and relaxing. The ocean waves are music to my ears it like they are calling me to go surf.

"How about this why don't we leave the bags here and unpack later. We can get into our surfing gear and go ride for a bit. You can use my sisters board I'm sure she wont mind. You can also use her gear it looks like you are about the same size, at least I hope. Ill be right back." he left the room to go get his sisters gear.

I looked around for my suitcase and I see it perfectly sitting down next to the bed. I went and grabbed it and opened it up and tried to find my surfing shirt and bikini. I don't really think I need the full out suit I mean I'm fine with just I have. I changed into my bikini and it was a blue top and bottom with black edges.

I was just finished putting on my bikini when Drake walked in. "Hey I found the gear and I am pretty sure it will...." he looked up and stopped talking and I couldn't help but laugh. This guy made it seem like he has never seen anyone in a bikini before. He shook his head and to my guess trying to forget what he saw. "Sorry about that, here is the gear and suit." he said putting the stuff on the bed.

"Its ok I think I can go surfing in my bikini I have done it before." I told him.

"Not to be rude or anything but the waves are a little rough out here at dawn. So I highly recommend the suit, trust me you wont regret it. Just put it over your bikini, ill see you out there." he left in silence and I guess I should listen to him. He does know these waters better then me, and from the looks up here the water does look heavy. Better be on the safe side.
