A Boat Called Moon Goddess: Chapter 12
A small cloud of dust left the box as it squeaked open.
Serenity's fingers trembled slightly as she reached in and pulled out a folded piece of paper.
When she opened the paper, a small picture fell out. Serenity caught it and looked at it.
The picture was of her father, mother, Travis and herself. Slowly she handed the picture to Travis, then glanced down at the paper.
It was a letter written by her father, Serenity knew the handwriting.
Slowly she began to read aloud.
My Dearest Serenity,
I'm positive that you will be the one to read this, but I fear that I will no longer be there with you. I know there are people after this money but I was saving it for the family. Ever since your mother's death so many years ago, I feared for yours and Travis' safety if the same should happen to me. So I saved as much money as I could just incase. I can only pray that nothing will happen and that you will never have to read this letter.
A few tears fell from Serenity's eyes. It took her some time before she could clear her vision to read again. Darien put his hand on her shoulder and squeezed it gently. Travis' eyes were glued on his father's face in the picture. Serenity took a deep breath and continued reading.
I want so much to see you and Travis grow up. I have dreams off seeing you happy in life and one day walking you down the aisle. And to see Travis succeed in school. I have always been very proud of both of you, and I love you both with all my heart. If the sad truth is that I am not by your side. I want you to remember that I am watching over you and I always will. I love you both so much.
Your Loving Father
Serenity slowly lowered the letter, tears were streaming down her face. She turned to look at Travis who glanced up at her. Suddenly Travis wrapped his arms tight around Serenity embracing her. Serenity cried into his shoulder while Travis shed a few tears of his own.
After a minute or so, the two pulled apart wiping their eyes.
Darien wrapped one arm around her should gently rubbing trying to comfort her. All three of them stared at the box full of money.
"He really was a great man," Travis whispered.
"He sure was…." A new deep voice said.
The three quickly looked up to see a gun pointing right at them.
