The night came in swiftness. After dinner, I stared at the night sky one more time.
Finally, I won't have to stare at the sky from floating on a boat. I think I'll have my fill of meat and veggies tomorrow.
I didn't really like vegetables but I didn't care anymore. Anything was better than fish in my book.
Lately, it's been calm, too calm perhaps. And because of that, I couldn't let my guard down. I didn't know why but before everything got screwed I always got this calm period. These days I shiver whenever I get the feeling that something might end up happening just after this period.
I sighed and closed my eyes. There wasn't anybody near me which was good. I didn't completely trust these guys but having the old man around did put me at ease. Enough for me to sleep on a hammock in the middle of the ship.
"Boy, you up?"
"Yeah."
The old man came near my hammock and sat down. "We need to talk."
"Yeah."
Finally, we're on land again. What are yer thoughts, Mateys?
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
