Lost hope

I silently followed Mr Winfrey to his room. Now you would probably think I'm stupid, just following a random stranger. But curiosity doesn't always kill the cat right?. We both stopped in front of what appeared to be his room. "Well now , open the door. Boys before men. " He said with a blank stare. "But I couldn't possibly open your door. It's a bit inappropriate, don't you think? " I said slightly worried. Mr Winfrey seemed agitated. "Boy open the bloody door! ", he said with a raised voice. This time I knew for sure I was in trouble. I obeyed and opened the door. At this moment I really regretted listening in on their conversation. We entered the room, that was dark as night. Mr Winfrey walked behind me and closed the door. He flicked the switch on the wall. Somehow he must've been familiar with the room. " Uhh sir this isn't your room, why are we here? ", I said trying to stall. " I wasn't born yesterday. I know you've been eavesdropping on me and captain's conversation ", he said. " How else could you have known who I am, and that I had a daughter. I don't have bricks for brains young man.", he said while grabbing my collar. Me a defenseless boy against a man who's been through life. This definitely wasn't a fair match. I honestly didn't know what to do, I should've known that he was going to get me. I realized my mistake, I was too eager to quench my thirst for knowledge. "Sir, I can assure you that I had entered the hall when I heard your name", I lied. " Even so, you stuck around to hear about my daughter. That is unexceptable. " He said releasing my collar. "I'll let you go. But if I catch you sneaking again. I'll ruin that little life of yours. You hear me boy".he said staring into my eyes. " Y-yes sir, you won't catch me again"., I stuttered. Mr Winfrey let me out the room, and warned me not to tell anyone about what happened. I shook my head and ran to the opposite side of the ship, where my room was. When I reached I checked the hall to see if I was being followed, before opening the room door. I went inside quickly, and let out a big sigh. "Mummy Scott is back" Said my youngest brother Felix. My mom turned at the sound of my name. "Scott!?, what happened?, you look like you've seen a ghost"., she said putting down what she was holding. " I'm alright mum, just did a little running that's all. "I lied. Lying is bad, but I couldn't help but lie when I can't tell the truth. In this case, I really couldn't because of the deal I made. At this point, I gave up all hope in finding her. The girl who made me feel like I've never felt before. Honestly, if it wasn't for her mysterious appearance, I probably would've been bored on this trip. I finally felt like I was a detective, almost like Sherlock Holmes a little bit. But I guess I'm Watson.... the one who's always told " It's elementary my dear Watson ". " Mum, I've decided not to worry about that girl", I said. "Ohh, so that's the reason you've been sneaking out at nights", she said with smile. " How did you know? ", I asked in disbelief. " I wasn't born yesterday. I used to do the same when I was younger.", she replied. That was the second time I've heard that phrase "I wasn't born yesterday", first from Mr Winfrey, and now from mum. That gave me chills. " I guess I can't fool you, but I'm really done this time. So no more sneaking out. ", I said walking towards our bed. "I'll even help with the boys"., I said taking a glimpse at my brothers Felix and Author. " My mum smiled at me. "Alright I believe you", she said before walking away. I sat down on the bed, looking out the window once again.

" I guess no one ever knowns, whats on the dark side of the moon... ", I said before lying down.
