Night Children: Dark Birth
Chapter One; Arrival
Annabelle
watched Mother give Father a quick hug.
Her parents were nearly as excited as they were, she realized.
She
felt a surge of joy. Despite their crammed, stuffy spot below deck, her mother
always seemed to make their long trip at sea seem almost like home. Happiness shone through her long, gentle face
like the warm sun. Her beautiful red
hair rested on her slender shoulders.
Some might’ve seen it as unkempt due to the rigors of traveling at sea,
but Annabelle thought its beauty still glowed.
“They’re
excited again, I see.”
“Yes,”
he chuckled. “Can you blame them?”
“No. I believe there’s excitement enough for
everyone.” She kissed him. “In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you
this happy.”
“I
don’t think I’ve ever been this
happy. Back in London, our lives were so
constrained. Out here in the New World,
there are so many possibilities.”
Roland
shouted, “Father, Mother, we’ve stopped.
We’re docking. Let’s go! Let’s go!
Let’s go!”
The
excited boy led his family up on deck where they watched the sailors toss heavy
ropes over to the wooden jetty. The boatswain
shouted for the crew to furl the sails.
Annabelle jumped as the heavy anchor chain splashed into the water. She couldn’t believe it. They were finally here.
