A Three-day Trip | Completed

Chapter 2

Unintentionally, I woke up by the shaking of the ship.

What's happening?

"Dad?" I'm looking for him when fear started to rise. It's already passed four in the afternoon as I checked my wristwatch.

"Yes honey?" His face looks worried. "Need anything?"

I'm paranoid again. Of course, there'll be shaking! I'm on a ship!

"Ahm, nothing. I'm just a little bit scared. Just a 'lil bit." I grinned reassuring I'm fine.

He nodded as he got what he needed as an answer. Then Trisha woke up. She checked herself in the mirror immediately. When everything seems fine, she brushed her hair and sat on her bed.

We were staring at each other talking silently. Wordless conversation, indeed. Excitement filled in her green eyes while a fear occupied mine.

Dad broke our wordless talk. No, no, no, no...

"Candi, why don't you both go upstairs and have a little fun?" I got back lying on my bed covering my whole face acting as I'm not yet awake then Trisha tickled me until I finally gave in.

"Okay, okay... You won! Stop it..." I can't stop giggling as she continued to tickle me. "right there. I'll come." She stopped and we burst out from laughing.

"Is it alright, dad?" He nodded. I walked and sat beside her father.

"Are you sure?" He messed my hair.

"Of course. Just don't forget to hold onto the railings if this lady walks faster again and if this ship dances again." He laughed so hard and patted the shoulder of Trisha.

"I will not leave her alone, uncle. This chick beside me is terrible being alone," Trisha added. I growled loudly.

"Let's go!" She announced.

I kissed Dad on the cheeks and Trish bowed to him. He smiled and gestured that we should go.

We were heading to the arcade of the ship. It's in the third deck and our cabin is on first'.

Too far. I sighed.

"Don't you really want to go?" she sadly asked.

"Nah, don't mind me Trish, no worries," I replied.

I personally hope some games I know are in there because I'm not quite fan in playing games. Even just a dance pad is enough!

Dance pad. Yahoo! Lol.

At this point of time, my mood prefers reading books and writing stories for goodness sake. But maybe, after Trisha gets tired, I'll invite her in the KTV bar. I saw it in the map, somewhere in the third deck too. It's just that I love to sing! And yes, we passed by the KTV bar, the... the... oh my! A painting section!

I stopped and glance through the walls.

"I'll be back! Just wait for me. Lol!" I said triumphantly.

"They are lovely!" Trisha stated glancing the painting.

"Truly lovely," I am 100% mesmerized. Somewhere in my heart... they are calling me. I faced Trisha.

"Shall we?" I puppy-eyed her pointing the canvassed painted with awesome and differentiated genre.

She grinned widely, "Oh sure my bestie. Yes, yes, yes," I beamed.

"Tomorrow."

She immediately held my arms and dragged me literally heading to the arcade. It's located in the far most part of the deck. I pulled back my arm and started walking very slowly.
