Jo-anne looked out of the ocean who was flat calm. Johnathan walked up to her and massaged her shoulders. She teared up, turned around and hugged John, she cried long and heartbreaking, all John knows to do is holding her close to him. He knew why she was so upset, the whole thing with Luna and Jake scared her. They had left port right after Jake was brought to the hospital, she was nervous because she hadn't talked to Luna after that, and she had to call Siebe to, telling him what happened.
" Who do you want to call first, the Cm or the NW? "
" I wanted to know how Luna and Jake are doing before I call Siebe "
" Well let's call Phil than. "
Jo-ann walked up to the phone but was nervous to call, John picked up the phone, dialed the number and pressed it against Jo-ann's ear. She took a deep breath while the phone was connecting.
" Cornelia Marie, Luna speaking "
" Luna it's me " Jo-anne said threw the tears " Are you oke, please tell me everything is ok with you and Jake. I couldn't come down by the boat 'cause we had to leave "
" Jo-jo calm down, Jake and I are fine, we have some bruises but nothing major "
" You don't know how happy I'm to hear that, did you call Siebe and tell him "
" No I didn't, you are going to call him and tell him aren't you? "
" Yeah I want to hear his voice and know if he is ok, I let you know, Bye Luna "
" Bye Jo - Jo "
Jo-ann hung up the phone and called the Northwestern. Norman picked up.
" Northwestern... "
" Um this is Jo-ann of the TB, I'm looking for Siebe "
" Hey Jo-ann its Norman, Give me a sec I'll grab him for ya "
Jo-ann waited when she heard a scruffy voice pick up the phone, she could imagine that Norman had walked down to wake Siebe up, how had put on a pair of sweats and walked bare feet, with his hair in a messy up tp the wheelhouse, to answer the phone.
" Hello "
" Hello Sieb, did Norman wake you up "
" Jo-Jo how are you haven't spoke to you for a while "
" I know, that's why I'm calling. So sit down and I tell you what happened to me and Luna and you can tell me everything that happened with Sig and his daughter "
And so Siebe did, he sat down and listend to the whole story Jo-ann was telling him. She told him everything, that Joey had arrived in town, the plan they made in the bar, the accident. Siebe just listened and asked some questions but was silence most of the time, Norman sat in the captains chair. They were on there way to to offload, every one was sleeping. Norman looked over to the young cameraman and saw the emotions run across his face when he told about Sig and his daughter. After that Siebe hung up and watched into the darkness, Jo-ann had told him what happened and he felt so guilty, he always promised Luna and Jo-ann that he would be there when they needed him. And now when Luna needed him the most he wasn't there. Jo-ann was upset about it all and he couldn't wrap an arm around her shoulders or Luna's. He felt worthless to, not because all that happened with Luna and Jo-ann but also what happened with Sig's daughter Mindy, he liked the girl when he met her and didn't know that she was his daughter until Sig went captain on him. Since than Siebe felt out of place, in Sig's eyes he couldn't do anything right.
" Don't worry so much boy, it will all be ok, you have to give it some time " Norman said out of the blue
" But what if it is not going to be ok? "
" It will be ok and don't worry about Sig, he will come around "
" He won't, he hates me "
" My brother doesn't hate you, he is stubborn and he can't stand it when his daugthers are dating. In his eyes there still his little girls, when a guy comes to close to them he goes captain on them "
" Yeah, I found out the hard way "
" Go back to bed, take some rest and remember all these things happen for a reason, but don't feel guilty "
" Stay Siebe, Norman wake up the others " Sig walked up the steps of the wheelhouse, they where close to St. Paul and Sig was going to take the boat in.
" Sig..."
" Not a word Norm, go " and after that said Norman left, Siebe turned his face back to the window and didn't look at Sig.
Sig took the boat in and after 2 hours they where securd to the dock, ready to offload. Siebe hadn't stayed long in the wheel house after Sig arrived and he wasn;t in the mood to stay around him for long, so he had walked up on deck to film the offload. Ralph the camera man Siebe works with had made a box full of tapes that had to be brought over to the Discovery office, so Siebe grabbed the tapes and brought them to the office. It was cold and windy outside but Siebe didn't care, after he dropped off the tapes he walked back to the boat and got the tape recorders and everything ready for a new round of filming. Norman walked down to him and told him to get up to the wheelhouse because there was another call for him from a other girl. Siebe walked straight up thinking that it was Luna.
" Hello this is Siebe "
" Hey you, so is my dad driving you crazy already?"
" Mindy... I...You.."
" Well it's great talking to you to "
" I'm, sorry I didn't know your we're going to call, your dad is going to kill me for this "
" No he won't uncle Norman made sure he is busy, so you and I could take, uncle Norman told me how he is treating you, I'm sorry Sieb"
" He is your father, he just wants to keep you save and I understand it "
" But still... "
" But still I understand it and maybe someday he will give me permission to take you out "
" You don't have to ask his permission "
" Yes I do Mindy, my dad raised me the old fashion way and I won't take a girl out without her father's permission "
" You are one weird guy, you know that "
" Hahaha, I know, I'm sorry "
All light conversation followed and both Mindy and Siebe had a great time, they learned more about each other, they laughed allot and after a couple of minutes they decided to end it. After Siebe hung up he felled a bit better, Mindy had cheered him up. But what both Siebe and Mindy didn't know is that a certain captain had followed the whole conversation
