Going To Find Father (A Disappearance Mystery Thriller Book 4)
Page 6
“As often as I can. Maybe two. Three times a week?” Now she looks at Melody again as she sits down. “I just love being out at sea.”
“Do you sometimes get caught in bad weather?” Melody can’t believe the bravery of this 15-year-old girl.
“You now the saying, “Red sky, sailor’s delight… blah, blah, blah. I try to be careful.”
Up close, the island is beautiful. The sandy beach is clean, white and looks remote. It must get very few visitors a year. Melody considers how nice it will be to swim in the water, uninterrupted. Except this isn’t a vacation. She is here to find out about her father.
Nell turns the boat around and faces it in the direction of Deacon Island, then she reverses the boat and parks it along the shore. The boat slowly backs up until it bumps against the sand. The engine is now off.
“You should be able to get out without getting wet now.” The current washes against the beach with more strength than either of them expected and Melody almost loses her balance as she steps out. “I’ll pass you your bag.”
Melody catches her bag and holds it above the water until she is far up the shore and safe from the current washing up and wetting her clothes.
Nell quickly powers the boat up and sails away shouting, “I’m sorry Melody!”.
Melody is left on the sandy beach, deserted. “Nell!” She runs after the boat, shouting, “Come back!” to beckon her back to the shore, but Nell has sped off and now turned her body around to look towards Deacon Island.
Her anxiety is on the rise. Realizing she has been betrayed, Melody falls back and sits on the beach with her hands on her head. She doesn’t even know the name of the island she is on.
She looks up to the sky, God, what have I gotten myself into now? With nothing else to do, Melody stands up to go and get her bag.
Suddenly, someone reaches from behind her, chloroforms her, knocking her out.
