66 Sixty Six
After the shocking confession from dad I go to the cabin and I give them a drink and some cookies and they are thankful for that.
Pilot-Thank you.
Copilot-You really are an angel from heaven. You're only missing the wings.
-You said earlier you'd like a kiss.
Copilot-I was just saying that as a joke, I wasn't being serious.
I laugh and I give him a kiss on the cheek and one to the pilot also on the cheek.
-I'd give you another one when we get there. This time on the lips.
They smile and nod fearfully but excited at the thought of another kiss from me. I go back with everyone else and I find that Karma is reading a book, Karai and mom are sleeping and dad is still holding tight to his seat. I get towards the bar and get myself a drink from the best that we have. After I finish my drink I get my notebook of drawings and I seat on the long couch and I start drawing a version of opposites.
After I finish I blow the rest of the coal out and I hum satisfied with the result before I save it on my backpack again so it doesn't get damaged. I get back on the couch and I look through the window. When I hear the pilot from the speaker saying we have to land and refill the gas tank. We land pretty smoothly and both of them go out and dad follows closely behind. I go following him and I found him lying down on the ground entirely relaxed and happy to be out of the plane. I go towards him and I poke him.
-You do realize you have to go back in the plane?
Ha-I can still enjoy a bit of security in the ground. I'll get back later.
I stay with him until the plane is completely fueled up and ready to go. I go back inside with dad in front of me just in case. When we get back in the plane dad turns to sleep on his seat and I offer Karma a kind game of chess and he accepts. After a while I'm deep in concentration thinking about my next move when a spider drops in front of me scaring the hell put of me and I stand and fall on dad's lap waking him up.
Ha-Nova, what's wrong?
-Sorry dad, just, a spider.
He looks at me curious and I hear Karai speaking.
K-Did you see her face? Ha, a tiny itsy spider scared her.
She laughs as she takes the spider and I grab tighter on to dad's shirt and he just pats me slightly.
K-Nova, this is a fake spider. It won't hurt you.
-Fake?
I get serious and frown at her and I give her a slight kick pushing her backwards on top of the chess board hitting herself on the head hard and I laugh at that.
Ha-That was not nice, both of you. Nova, don't kick your sister and Karai, please don't scare Nova. Is that understood both of you?
-Yes dad I understand.
K-Wathever.
Ha-Answer properly.
K-Yes dad, I understand.
Ha-Good, now apologize to each other.
K-Sorry for scaring you.
-Sorry for kicking you and pushing you. Dad, can I stay here?
Ha-Sure, whatever you want.
I smile and I stay on his lap and get comfortable as I hide my face on his neck, chest and shoulder as he hugs me and rubs my back gently as he always did when I had a nightmare or any trouble at all when I was little. Is not long before I fall asleep on his arms.
When I wake up is because we're about to land at our destination. I get out of dad's lap and I go to the cabin to check how things are going.
-Everything's alright in here?
Pilot-Yes, my lady.
-Nova
Copilot-Yes Nova.
I smile at him and I ruffle his hair gently before I go back out and sit getting the seatbelt on. When we finally land and stop moving I scream with joy to myself. I lead the way to the hotel resort where we are staying and I go to the counter and ask for the keys to our rooms.
-Hello, rooms two, three and four. The presidential ones.
Staff-Right, Nova was it?
-The one and only.
Staff-Right this way. Please.
He leads us to our rooms and he gives me the keycards to open the rooms. I give one to dad and one for Karai and keep one to myself.
-Karma's with me and Karai is by herself.
Ha-No familiar room or for four?
-Oh no, there were for up to six, I just wanted it this way. Now the first thing you are going to do is check your bags for precaution's sake. After checking we will meet down for lunch.
With that said we get to our respective rooms and the first thing I do is change to my swimsuit. Karma does as well.
We go to the buffet lunch first and we get whatever we want waiting for everyone to get here.
Ka-Do you think they take long?
-With what I got him to use, maybe they won't come out of the room, especially dad.
Ka-What did you got him?
-Can you at least try and imagine what I got for him?
He doesn't answer and I look at him and I see he's looking past behind me to something else before speaking.
Ka-I don't think I have to imagine him now, look.
He turns me around and I see that dad's already here with mom and Karai.
I take my spoon and forks and go towards him from behind.
-Like it?
Ha-I'll live.
I laugh and I point him to the food and get on a table myself with Karma while they get their food. When they come back mom has a full plate, dad has only half the plate and Karai is not too much not too little but what gets my attention is dad.
-Why if there are more than fifty different choices to eat you barely get three?
Ha-Is called eating with moderation.
I roll my eyes and I feel as Karma nudges me with his arm slightly.
Ka-Nova.
-What?
Ka-Don't look but I think that guy over there wants to flirt with you.
I look discreetly where he's pointing and I smile as I look back to my plate and answer him.
-He's cute but not for me. Too arrogant for his own good.
Ha-You still think he's cute.
-Cute not handsome and besides, I was only referring to his appareance.
Ka-What would you do if he comes over?
-Ignore him, most likely. With the hope that he'll get tired and go away on his own.
Ha-If he doesn't, what would you do then?
-Probably hurt him.
Ka-That is so you.
We laugh and we finish our lunch and we go to the pool where mom gets her feet on the water, Karma and Karai play on the water on the pool, dad sits under an umbrella and he plays with his phone while I just work on getting a tan from the sun. I can hear Karma calling out to me.
Ka-Come inside, the water's delicious.
-Later, right now, I'm working on getting a tan. I promise I'll go in before we go back to our rooms.
He stays silent and then I feel a shadow over me and hear a bit of water drops. I open my eyes and Karma is there looking at me.
-You're blocking my sun.
Ka-Sorry but, the guy is still looking at you.
I make a face at him and he goes back to the pool. I keep enjoying the sun and we I deem is enough I go to the pool just like I promised I would and join the fun. We stay there until is dinnertime and we get changed to some dry clothes and head to dinner. We get our respective dishes and sit down to eat. When we're about to finish the guy that looks at me comes and speaks to me.
Guy-Hello.
-Here we go. Karma, don't do anything before I do.
Guy-Can I tell you a secret? I been watching you and you're beautiful. Can I......
He motions for the chair at my side and I take it away forcefully.
-Don't even think about it.
Guy-Ok, I'll just stand then. Come on, speak to me, I know you like me.
-In your dreams.
He moves to touch me and I get away and warn him.
-If you so much as touch me, you'll end up in the hospital.
He laughs and he puts a hand on my shoulder and I take him by the front of his shirt's neck and slam his face on the table so hard that I break his nose and his mouth making him bleed a lot.
Guy-Why you'd do that? It hurts, you broke my face.
-I warned you, would you like seconds?
He frowns and he goes away and I smile at that. I clean my mouth with a napkin harshly throwing it against the table and I stand to go away excusing myself.
-I think I'll hit the bed early. Not in the mood to do anything anymore, enjoy and good night.
With that I go away and to the room and I change to my pajamas and slide onto the bed but I can't seem to fall asleep and I realize why when Karma comes to sleep as well.
-Hey Karma.
Ka-Did I woke you up?
-No, I couldn't sleep and now I know why. Can I sleep with you or you with me?
Ka-You'll sleep with me even if I say no so yes, let me change and I come with you.
He changes and I move to the side leaving him a space on the bed with me. He comes back out and he slides in with me. I get on top of him and he slides the blanket on top of me and just for a moment I let myself be as vulnerable as I can and let him protect me as much as he wants and before long I fall asleep on his arms.
The next morning when I wake up I find myself alone on the bed and I get up a bit sleepily and when I look at the hour I see is time for breakfast already and I get dressed to go and I go downstairs to get my breakfast still a bit sleepy. I find everyone else is already awake and eating their breakfast. I join them and Karma gives me a hug and a kiss.
-Why didn't you woke me up?
Ka-I tried, but you wouldn't wake up besides, you were so deep asleep.
Ha-So, where are we going today?
-Epcot. We should be there in about an hour, an hour and a half tops. We have time to spare unless you want to go and be there early.
Ha-I want to relax a bit, is vacation after all.
We laugh at that and I finish my breakfast and head out to a gift store that is on the hotel and I get through the gifts getting one for each of them. When I don't find a good enough gift I go back to the room and I get dressed to go to the park. We leave with only five minutes to spare and when we get there they get amazed and I give them their passes.
-These are your passes, it was hard getting them so don't lose them, if you do you are out of the park without a way to enter. As long as you have these passes you can go anywhere you want inside the park until it closes. We can get even to the restricted only staff places. Now then, do you want to go together or each your own way?
They think about it for a moment and we end up mom and dad one way and me with Karma and Karai on the other way.
