Chapter 242
Sometime later, Rose woke in the middle of the night after she heard yelling coming from up top of the ship. They had been sailing for a little over three days which Rose knew from keeping track of the nights. They were soon to reach Zayne’s home and Rose couldn’t be more grateful.
While the night skies were beautiful, Rose couldn’t take any more of the ship swaying so much and looking down at the water made her want to throw up. She couldn’t understand how fishermen or even everyone else on the ship could put up with this feeling that came upon her after three days.
Zayne was sound asleep like they were on land in the comfort of their home. The rocking was not getting to him and Rose wondered how many times he had been on a ship to be so used to this.
Rose could at least proudly say that she developed a talent for not spilling her food when the sea became rough and everything started to fall on the floor. It was scary how the calm sea could turn to scary in the blink of an eye.
Rose faced Zayne as he slept not knowing that she was wide awake. Normally, it was Rose waking up to Zayne already tidying the room, bringing her food or looking at his map to give an idea of how much longer they had before they reached land.
She stayed as still as she could to not disturb his slumber since Zayne was constantly on the move around the ship and when he wasn’t, he found her to spend a bit of time with her.
The sea had its good moments for their relationship but Rose wanted to be on land soon. She wanted to see where Zayne had grown up and what their new home was like.
She was ready to make him proud as his wife.
Rose eventually drifted back to sleep to help with time move faster.
