Epilogue
*-*-*-*-*
-a couple of months later –
A beach, some palmtrees. Some people had gathered against the tree-trunk, cosy close to each other, catching the last rays of sun, enjoying the warmth of the past day, loving the view; a beautiful sunset. The sun drew a golden shine on the water with her last strength before dying, leaving the world behind in darkness. An orange horizon, golden water; it was a beautiful sight, a wonderful ending of a marvellous day. They had wandered around the land, leaving the ship and the crew behind. In the back, large mountains, tops covered with eternal snow. They'd followed a river, ending up at a waterfall, and a meadow. Hours had passed and they'd enjoyed every second, enjoying the peace and quiet, and the solitude. Just the three of them. He smiled as he looked at his wife and their baby, swimming in the water, playing in the field. She was four months old now, and happy, eager to explore the world. She looked just like her mother, so beautiful, so sweet. A little angel.
It got colder and she got closer to him. He put his arms around hem, gently, not wanting to wake the child in her arms, which seemed to be asleep, finally. They had started a fire on the beach and had settled against a tree-trunk, looking over the water and the sun setting in the sky.
'Is she asleep?' he asked, whispering in her ear, then placed a soft kiss on her hair, inhaling her sweet scent.
'Almost'
'Finally some rest, huh?'
She laughed, 'You've never complained before.'
'No, I didn't, but I've never spent an entire day alone with you girls either!'
She poked him between his ribs. Laughter, then silence as the baby started to cry. Laughter again. He took the baby form her and got up, gently rocking his child back to sleep, softly singing a little lullaby.
She looked at them, amused and touched by the view. He's a good father, and a loving husband. And her mind drifted off…. Him being around all the time during the pregnancy, worried as she sighed, afraid if she glared surprised at him when she felt the baby kick, watching over her as she slept...then when the baby came… he'd knew it would be a girl. 'Amazing' she thought, and that's what it was.
He looked down on the little miracle in his arms, silent again, and to it's mother, and back to her girl. He loved them, and he knew he would never want to loose it.
A loving family, a warm summersday…A bit different then in her dreams, but still a dream comes true…
