Wish
Beth jokes, but her voice is filled with fear.
“I doubt it,” I try to reassure her, but my free hand curls around the cold and damp steel railing. Just in case.
The fog is thick as the ferry moves through it. I don’t know how much time passed, but Beth’s presence is a comfort, strangely enough. I don’t let go of her hand.
This might be the first time I allowed myself to depend on anyone, even if just for peace of mind.
However, whatever terrifying sight I thought awaited us—perhaps the appearance of the prehistoric dinosaurs—my jaw still drops when the ferry finally moves past the thick wall of fog.
