The Bird Island
Chapter 19
TRISTAN REMOVED the mooring lines from the cleats, the stern-lines and the bow-lines,
He started the engine, it was an easy key start. And he gently reverse manoeuvred the boat out of the pylons.
When the boat was clear out he shifted the gear to forward and eased the boat onwards, he throttled the engine and the boat picked up speed:
“I’m sorry I forgot, there’s life jackets in that hatch,” Tristan said pointing.
Lillian stooped down and fiddled with the latch opening it, Tristan was standing waiting calmly behind the steer for the duo to put on the life jackets, even Rudolf had one on, that done; Tristan revved forward the throttle and picked up speed.
Lillian’s adrenaline pumped faster as the boat went faster, the wind hitting her face, feeling slightly dizzy she sat down on the long faded brown leather lounge seat.
The Bird Island was a speck on the horizon, soon

Chapter 20A DEEP SADNESS was felt automatically, as the pair wordlessly contemplated the massive loss of animal lives: the birds, the Galapagos tortoises, the plants that they fed on, the insects and of course the other lizards all gone now, lost forever.Tristan carefully concealed a deep seated anger he now felt for the person responsible for all these, but he felt helpless as he thought of how justice for the evil crime will never be meted out to the perpetrator.“Is it poisonous or can it bite?” Tristan asked breaking the awfully painful sad silence.“No,” Lillian replied. “I don’t think it bites, or it’s poisonous, I mean that’s from what I have researched about, I wrote an essay composition in school.”Tristan had reached out of the boat’s starboard side to haul the small creature in.“Wait–” Lillian said, but she was late, Trista

But—Still it was unsettling, Willy couldn’t let that one pass; he had to make sure—Willy left the balcony and went towards Lillian’s room, he knocked again and waited, no reply.He switched on the phantom effect and he went through the door like a ghost.They were gone!

Chapter 228:30PM, LILLIAN was in her room in the resort:She was so tired, she went to bed early, after a warm healthy dinner of salad niçoise and tuna, and spaghetti pie casserole for comfort, Rudolf had bacon and milk. She had a shower and she went early to bed, Rudolf was also eager to retire early and he slept at his usual place and that was at the foot of her bed. Lillian’s mind was slowly replaying the entire events of the day as she laid on her bed, breathing softly:After Tristan had jumped off into the sea, Eureka and Lillian had circled around the whole sea area near the jetty calling his name frantically, but it was of no use, Tristan had totally disappeared. When they had returned to the jetty and carefully strapped the boat securely with the mooring lines, they went and alerted the resort’s staff who further alerted the responsible authorities who organised a massive search and rescue attempt for Trist

He looked at his wife, Mrs Lucy Cole:“I’m sorry hun Tristan was not found yet,” he said shaking his head slowly, fighting back the urge to cry.Lucy Cole sat there with tears in her eyes: her eyes were accusing,Mr Cole knew what her eyes were saying,He finally nodded and began softly at first, “Okay, maybe I was wrong to buy him that stupid boat, you were right, you happy now? You were right and I was wrong!”“He wouldn’t be dead now would he? If he was in college now, Jason,” Mrs Cole said softly; accusingly.“How do you know that?

His face was scaly and ugly like the rest of his body? He had to go back to his parents: Mr and Mrs Cole, he had to go and see them, they’ll know what to do, they always knew what to do when he encountered problems.. . . . .Lillian slowly pushed her left over pancake and bacon towards Willy who graciously received it, it was coated in maple syrup.

I had everyone play along just to fool you.”“Even Orea,” Eureka said under her breath. She was beginning
