I woke up the next morning to the heat blazing in from my window. the atmosphere was thick and humid. I only slept with a thin sheet over me as the sweltering heat was to much to handle.

Today was the day. I would confess my worries to my mum. Before this, I got up put my bikini on with some shorts over the top and headed down for some breakfast with my family.

The breakfast was professionally laid out. You could choose from either a cooked breakfast or continental dishes like toast, cereal, croissants etc. Me, I decided to have some cereal and a croissant. It was tasty! We went back to the hotel, did what we had to do and went down to the pool. Instead of sun beds, there were huge double beds with a roof to shelter from the sun. Pool side service was available all day so we could order whatever we fancied. I truly was in paradise.

I decided to sit back relax and let the sun heat me up. I thought of how difficult it was going to be to tell her about what had been happening, and what she was going to say. It would be a different situation if it was my dad, he would have a go at me, and say about how I should of told him straight away. Where as, with my mum she will understand where I'm coming from, and will help me, hopefully. I was too scared to go into the pool so I just sunbathed the whole day.

I was going to tell my mum tonight, before bed that way my mind would be clear and refreshed.

It was 5pm now. We decided to leave the pool area, head back to the room and get changed ready for tonight. We were going to a fancy restaurant in the hotel which I was looking forward too. When we got back to the hotel, the maids had transformed it(cleaned it). I divided onto the silky white sheets and plumped my head on the soft cushion. Life was good.

45mins later, I decided to get up, go in the shower, put my sparkly blue dress on, fix my hair, make my face look more attractive and get ready to go.

We arrived at the restaurant. It was named "The Lake". It was called this as it consisted of a forest like condition with a stream flowing around the whole restaurant with a big lake in the centre where you could make a wish with a coin. I loved the sight of it. I ordered a bacon and cheese beef burger with fries and lettuce. It was tasty.

We headed home around 8:30pm. I joined my parents and my sister with a wkd on the balcony watching the sun set. It was magical. I headed to bed around 10:30pm, asking my mum to come with me to say goodnight.

She tucked me in, which she rarely does as I'm a lot older now. "Goodnight sweetie" she whispered, and then it was my chance. "Hey mum, there's something I need to talk to you about, it's quite serious". My heart was pounding. "Okay, go ahead, I'll sit down" and so she say down next to me. I was shaking like mad. But I knew it was the right option, to tell her. "Well...umm...".
