Voyage Novels & Stories

I’ve already downed half of the bottle, saving the other half for the journey back. We reach a lake and continue jogging past, not paying it any mind. I stop, slightly mesmerized by the sight of the wide lake. The sun’s rays reflect on the surface of the lake, making it shine, almost glitter even. An old boardwalk leads up to the lake, the banks covered in different beautiful flowers, each exuding its own unique scent. I take a detour and slowly make my way to the lake. “Onda where are you going?” Thea calls after me, she and Joey slow down.

"Is it just me, or did that guy earlier... wasn’t he going in our direction?" The driver kept his eyes on the road. "Definitely not," he said firmly. "Plus, the name he was calling was different. It had nothing to do with us." Anne, the woman in the front seat, nodded slowly. "Right. This is Vespera's first visit to City F, after all."

“Oh my god, the bride is coming! She is absolutely stunning!” Sarah followed their gaze, only to see that the bride standing at the bow of the incoming boat was Hannah. What a coincidence. Meanwhile, the groom stood at the bow of his own wedding vessel, with his back to Sarah. His boat was sailing forward, heading out to welcome the boat carrying his bride. Ten meters, eight meters, two meters… Just as the bows of the two boats were about to meet, the groom’s vessel rocked slightly from the current. The groom turned his face to the side, and Sarah somehow found that side profile familiar.

I really didn’t want to see anyone else at that moment except Freya and, by coincidence or plan, Aaliyah. “The journey ahead is long. You are strong. You’ll be fine.” Aaliyah tried encouraging me but I didn’t want it from her. “Take this…” She removed the back and gave it to me. “Inside it are what you need for your journey. There’s a compass that glows when you get closer to your destination.” I took the bag and hung it around my neck. The sun completely set. My ride had arrived. It was time to go. We walked together to the car the was waiting for me. My luggage was in the car already.

The sun-kissed deck, the sound of waves, and the promise of adventure create a perfect setting for their journey on the Belladonna, a tribute to his beloved daughter.

Henry slightly shook his head, clearly missing the point of what he had just said-as if he had any intention of making Daniel feel better. "Did you know that a normal bus would take twenty-two hours and twenty minutes to get to New York? But this one that we're in, thanks to Carter•Labs and their invention of the life cell, we will reach there six hours earlier," added Henry, completely ignoring what Daniel was saying, "now that's what I call excellent thinking!" "Never mind," Daniel resorted, sighing. It was already past noon when Mr. Gilbert notified everybody that they would be making a stop at Washington DC after almost seven hours of travel.

If he did not come quickly, she would fall asleep right there. Wan stood on the crossroads, waiting for a taxi. He saw a few pass by but they were all filled with passengers. He hit himself when he saw an Uber. He should have just call an Uber instead of wasting his time there. He was about to pull out his phone when someone interrupted him.

But then her mind replayed his statement and she came to her senses at the word family emergency. "Family emergency? I hope it's nothing serious." She stated with concern. "It actually is. My mum suffered a stroke. So I have to travel to Italy. She needs me." "I understand. I hope she's doing okay though?" "Oh yeah yeah she is." He assured her. "Thanks for showing concern."
