to the sea

Chapter 2

I packed up some things that I thought would be useful and headed out and left my mom a note for her if she decides to come back before I do.

Dear mom,
First of all thank you for telling me who my father was and I know it wasn't easy for you to say his name out loud but thank you. I feel like I'm ready to meet him and that is why I'm writing you this letter. I will be safe i promise. I will try to be home as soon as I can but I'm not stopping till I find him. Please don't worry about me I've been on my own enough and I'm ready for the next step.
Thank you for everything I love you,
Evergreen
P.s I took the doll to prove to him that I'm not lying about who I am.

I left the note on the table and was on my way.

I don't even know where to start because I know Jack was probably not on this island or town I should call it.

So I must do what is in my blood I must either stowaway on a ship, steal one, or build a tiny boat to get my at least on the sea.

I went to the docks and see what my options were. Luckily my dear friend Henry who owns a ship.

"Hey Henry is there any chance I can come along with you?" I asked him.

"Yeah it's no problem but can I ask why you want to go along with me?"

"I want to find my dad".

He looks at me with a confused look.

"I see no problem with that come ye along".

"Thank you".

The number one problem I was facing was now not a problem.

I hopped aboard his ship and the only condition he gives me is that I have to do some work only until I decide to depart the ship.

Henry showed me my bed and where I would be staying and before I knew it I was on my adventure.

All I could think about was how my mom would react to me leaving like this but I was more worried about how she would think about me going off on this adventure to find my dad that she hated so dearly.

I should of asked the most important question to her is as to why she hates him so much?

I know he left her on that island but she survived that there has to be more to it.

It just doesn't make sense.

I sat there on my little bed I know have and just stare at the voodoo doll.

"Oh dad what happened and where are you?" I asked my self.

It was time for me to do my duties and It was to wash the deck and pick up after the crew.

It wasn't bad but I didn't want to do it at all.

Washing the deck was not fun at all and I was just lucky there was more girls on this ship because I would not want to be on this ship with a whole bunch of guys but I was just glad they were nice well most of them.

I was glad Henry was in charge of this ship because I know he would look out for me because he was always there for me growing up while I wasn't old enough to take care of my self.

I owe him a lot and I'm so glad I found a ship to be on.

The deck was as clean as I could get it and I just walked around the ship and cleaned up as much as I could.

The sea was a beautiful place maybe I need to embrace my inner pirate because I could get used to this view.

The sun was setting and the horizon was beautiful.

I put my arms on the ledge.

"Oh Jack Sparrow or dad I hope I can find you soon because I really want to meet you" I said aloud.

I went to my bed and sat there hoping that this ship will bring me to my answer.

I lay down and close my eyes and ready for what tomorrow is going to bring me.
