Chapter 12: Day 2.

The water was really an enjoyable one, I played with a lot of the kids, I made friends with Ryan, and Williams and Caro were also enjoying themselves together, having a couples play together. The happiness on their faces is something one shouldn't mess up with, the fact Williams is into smoking and avoiding Caro seeing him, is it really worth the risk in their relationship?, I don't know how good he feels smoking, like he said, it helps keep his mind off things, but is it really worth it risking this happiness before me?.
We stayed in the water for an hour or two, I surprisingly become so close to Ryan the little man. I took time teaching him moves I know about swimming, he's definitely not a fast learner, and I am not a good teacher, either way, it was just nothing but fun, having a great time with whoever I can.
“ Ember!.... Time to go!”, Williams shouted out to my hearing as I watch him begin to help Caro out of the pool, I turned around to see Ryan now sitting at the corner staring, I don't know if doing this is of any use, but maybe I just should because we've really become friends.
“ I am about to go, so I just came to say goodbye....”, I turned to leave when he ran to me, “ Can I see you again?....”, he asked, looking into my eyes, I don't know whether that would ever be possible, not when I don't know what my future here is all about, can't even predict what would be happening next, maybe I will just wake up only to find myself somewhere else next time.
“ I don't know Ryan, but if we ever got to see one another next time, then I will call it fate...”, I said, waving at him as I walked away, probably leaving him curious. He's still a little kid to me, but there's this weird connection I just have with him that I can't seem to explain, it looks like despite his age and little size, he can still protect me when danger strikes, so much charisma for little Ryan here.
“ Just thirty minutes to our next phase of the day, we better hurry before it begins...”, Williams said as we were about driving away. “ What might that be this time darling?....”, Caro asked, looking past me to her husband seated on the driver seat.
“ You know I wouldn't tell you dear, not gonna ruin my surprise and plans so early, hope you have patience until then baby....”, he replied to her, but Caro doesn't seem to be ready to let it go, “ it's not about of me though, I know you like showing me surprises, but this time, I am asking because of Ember here, so she would know.....”, Caro said, trying to pretend to act less concerned, but the curiosity is written all over her face.
“ Don't worry baby, it's a surprise to her too until then....”, Williams replied. What Caro is doing is really familiar, something I know and it's quite funny right now, she's trying to manipulate Williams to spill whatever he was hiding as the surprise, she's having that feeling like she's desperate to know but acting like it's none of her business.
“ Thanks for your patience baby....”, Williams said, now releasing the lioness from her bondage, “ Please tell me honey, I can't seem to relax right now, I feel like I really have to know ”, Caro begged, signalling me to come seat at her position while staying on mine as we swapped seat.
She was gently holding Williams sleeve, trying to persuade him gently and romantically, Williams turned his face, my eyes recording every beautiful moment happening, Williams kissed her forehead and looked back on the road as she continues driving.
“ You're bad Williams, I can't even get you to tell me secrets.....”, she said, acting like a child about to cry, I just don't know how love happens to turn mature people into kids automatically, I can't seem to hide my laughter anymore as they slipped my mouth, Caro looked back at me and smiled, knowing that I knew what she was doing.
Williams turned again, kissed her forehead and looks back on the road, as if he too was taunting Caro who's curiosity is taking the best of her. It was just a funny sight, one which I can't believe would make me laugh out so loud, between the three of us, Caro is now the one who looks like she's been toyed.
Williams stopped the Van when we got to an area where many people are gathered, staring at something, he came down from the van, taking Caro's hand after he was down on the floor as I followed behind. Williams was holding Caro so close while I walked behind them.
“ Excuse us.... A Queen passing through!”, Williams was saying out loud, people adjusting and letting us through, Caro wearing a smile on her face for Williams gestures towards her, we went through the crowd and came to a barrier crossed as a boundary to keep people away.
Caro immediately turned to Williams as they shared an emotional hug, really emotional to the point I saw tears on Caro's cheek, what might've moved her this much?, I looked past them and saw there was a bull, it was a bull fight with a man in there, holding a pink material and showing it to the bull with both his hands placed away from his body.
It's a confusing sight for me, I don't see anything special here, just a dangerous stunt the man inside is pulling off, one that could get him killed. Many were enjoying the show like it was something to be reconned, I don't get it, I don't get anything here.
