I wake up to Dad violently shaking me and Dakota.
"Wake up cutie pies !" he yells, banging on the end of the bed
Dakota groans. My eyes flutter open to see Dad walking back into the kitchen. The smell of eggs, sausage and bacon flooded my sense of smell. I can hear the shower running in the other room. Dakota stretches and checks her phone. I quickly get out of bed and run out into the kitchen beside Dad, who was currently getting the food off the stove and onto plates. I watch intently for a bit . I hear the shower turn off. I see the bathroom door open and my stepmother, Vicky walks out in only a towel straight into her and Dads shared bedroom closing the door behind
"Go sit down" Dad simply says
I comply, going into the dining room and sitting at the clear round table. Dakota follows shortly. Light flows through the glass sliding doors with the painted white walls making it even brighter. Dad walks in and sets down four plates containing scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon and toast. Mine was buttered quite a bit to make it soft because Dad knew if it wasn't I wouldn't eat it. Vicky walked in and sat down. Dad made some joke, Dakota laughed, I did to despite not understanding it.
"Hey girls ! How was your sleep ?" Vicky asked
"Uh it was OK" Dakota replied
I just nod while eating my eggs. I watch as Dad makes a sandwich with his food and eats it quickly. He has a smirk and looks really proud of himself. He stands up taking his plate.
"You guys are so slow !" Dad exclaims before walking into the kitchen
Dakota and Vicky make fun of him. We all quickly finish eating. We go to the kitchen and put our plates in the sink.
"Get ready quick girls, we got a big day" Vicky said
"What're we doing ???" I ask curiously
"We're going to Toronto !"
Dakota and I speedily get changed out of our pajamas. I decided on a teal Roxy hoodie and grey leggings. Dakota decided on a black and grey striped sweater and jeans. We go into Vicky's and Dads van, well , Vicky's van, it was her money, hell, Dad doesn't even have a license.Dad likes to flicker threw 10000 before he actually settles on one, Vicky yells at him almost every time. We very very briefly heard Hedley.
"Dan !! The girls like that song !" Vicky scolds him
"Oh do they ??" he replied, now flicking backwards
Dad and Vicky were now arguing while Hedley played. Vicky drives for about a hour, since that is the amount of time it takes to get to Toronto from St. Catharines. Vicky parks in some large parking lot and we go to Niagara Falls. I've heard it's really beautiful, apparently it's one of the Seven Wonders. We go up to the fence, there's a lot of people but a lot less then people sat there are. I'm surrounded by the sounds of people talking, yelling, walking,running,cameras clicking, but the loudest of them was the Falls, they were extremely loud ! I go up to the fence with Dakota. Beautiful was such a understatement, it's absolutely stunning ! And there was a rainbow ! I looked at the boats on the lower part of the Falls. Vicky Vicky comes up up next to us.
"Do you see that over there ?" she asks, pointing to something dark in the water, a bit in the distance.
Dakota and I both say yes.
"That's a old boat that got stuck there" she informs us.
That would be kinda scary though. Slowly dying on a stuck boat. I shiver at the thought.
"Look how fast the water moves ! It moves so fast that it doesn't even freeze in Winter ! People use to go over the Falls in barrels !" Vicky spat out facts left and right
