The caribbean sun looked brilliant in the perfect light-blue sky. the wind blew softly as the waves lapped at the shore. the soft sand was just the right temperature as it slipped through my toes. as i lay on my blanket, i exhaled and turned another page. today couldn’t be any more perfect.
in fact, everything with this trip had gone so well. i had never been out of the country before, much less on a plane. however, i got my passport without any hitches, and i didn’t get motion sickness on the flight. the resort limo was at the airport waiting to whisk me away.
lying here on a tropical beach with a glass of ice-cold water in one hand and my favorite novel in the other is my idea of a getaway. just then, a seagull swooped down and disturbed my serenity. the bird grabbed my book right out of my hands and took off. i chased it as far as i could before the seagull dropped my beloved paperback into the deep blue sea. all i could do was sigh. i knew this day was too good to be true!
