The next day, father presents me with a sword. I am ecstatic, and I turn the sword over in my hands, not believing that its mine.
The blade is made of fine steel, and the sword itself is light as a feather. I hardly notice it strapped to my waist.
John and I came close to kissing-- But I think we're both to afraid to do so.
How wonderful it would be to kiss him, though!
Last night, I confided my wish to Caddie. She laughed, but also thinks that john wants to kiss me.
I'm quite happy. Everyone regarded my mood with relief; I have been quite cranky because of the mirage.
I Parry with father on the deck 'till it is supper time. We grin and wipe our faces. Mother Parries with father, then the cap'n.
We all stop whatever we are doing ot watch; The cap'n and my father are evenly matched, and their fights usually end up with someone falling overbaord.
That person is father today. After we help him out of the sea, He goes to change, but mother lips are pursed. she worries about my father and his headstrong ways.
Sometimes too much.
I watch the sun go down, surrounded by those whom I love and care about.
