It was Monday April 5th and me and my family were all excited . My dad already packed his kit to go on that boring trail he wants my sister and brother to go with him on. I was the child who always kept in the house so he knew he wouldn't get me to go with him on his trail. I was exhausted as well i didn't feel like going anywhere or taking even one more foot step , Our trip from the U.S to Jamaica was getting to me so i didn't hesitate to throw my self on my bed . It was going to be a long long month. I picked up my phone took a picture of the outside seen and sent it to my friend Ella back in the U.S threw my phone on the the counter and went to sleep. 

After a few hours i woke up only to find that it was about 7 pm . everyone was gone and i was left home in the hotel. I was terrified why would my parents leave me here all alone in this hotel I barely knew , something told me to look threw the window , to my surprise it was a beautiful seen. I gasped and went into my bag to get my camera and rushed outside only to bump into a Family that were just arriving as well. A wife, Husband, and too kids one around my age and a little younger one. They introduced there selves and there children. I said Hi shyly when suddenly the woman grabbed my camera and started intruding my privacy. 

Woman: "OHHH! how nice dear. Me son over here loves taking these kindah pictures too but these are outstanding you should talk to him and give him some advice".

Me: "uhhh , Thanks , I guess so".

I took my camera and walked quickly towards the beach. I was so excited as soon as i reached my destination i started taking pictures like i was insane about 40 pictures and counting just to get the perfect one.  After i was done i took some time to rest and sat on a big rock that met with the sand and  the tide. I exhaled and inhaled. About 2 minutes of exhaling and inhaling i felt taps on my shoulder i looked up just to see the eldest son of the family his name was Trevor Fox. He shyly smiled and said

Trevor: "Sorry for how my mom intruded into your little camera there".

Me: Its okay. But ill have you know this isn't a "little camera" have some respect i bought this for 1200 and it works better than my eye vision and your eye vision combined. 

Trevor: Woah! my bad. Miss photographer ill watch my mouth next time. By the way my mom lied im not a photographer, She just told you that so i can talk to you and have a friend for the month were staying here. 

Me: really! what a setup. Anyway can you take a picture of me sitting in the sand please?

Trevor: sure miss photographer

Me: okay you have to stop keep calling me that my name is Orchid.

After he snapped the picture i saved it and then put my camera in my side bag. It was so awkward for a minute until his brother came down and killed the silents.

Daniel: Dip shit! what are you doing down here? you better find my charger or im telling dad your down here picking up chicks. 

Trevor: Dude this is Orchid the girl we met earlier . You really do have a short memory . -Picks up charger from back pocket and stones it on him- There! i found it in the backroom now scram!.

Me: haha! you and your brother sure must get a long.

Trevor: Hes the worst thing that happened to my parents . They just have to deal with it now

Me : Well its getting pretty late . Ill talk to you tomorrow if your on the beach. Bye

Trevor: bye! 

I then ran up the sand hill and ran through the crowd back to my hotel room. i locked the doors and sat in the couch and surf through Netflix for a while. Then fell asleep again in the couch.
