Chapter 4-An echoing mind
They continued to sail for several uneventful days, but Nicola dined with the crew instead of Jack. Finally, they arrived at Tortuga. They didn't have to sail through a storm, much to Nicola's relief. However, all the spare time she had on her hands had given her the chance to think about Jack's words.
"I wouldn't be so sure, love. As much as your sister loves you, Tortuga has a strange way of changing people. She may not be as willing to help you as you think."
What if he was right? What if her sister didn't want to help?
Do not be idiotic. Of course she will want to help you, you are her sister. She has to help you.
She kept repeating this in her head to reassure herself, but his words continued to echo in her mind. It had been a long time since she had seen her sister...and Jack had a voice that stayed with you, no matter what it was he said.
As Nicola got off the ship, Jack ran up to her. "Listen, ignore what I said before. Your sister will help you out."
Nicola gave a loud "Ha!" before continuing to walk along the pier. "Why the sudden change of mind?"
"Well, one o' me crew mates said that you had been depressed and when I said what I said before they told me that was probably why."
"Excuse me? I'm English, talk to me in that language." She snapped.
"Apparently what I said to you upset you, so I came to put it right."
"Oh." She paused for a moment. "But if you still believe she will not help, then you are not helping me at all."
They were both silent.
"I should just go. It will not help just standing here wondering if she will help me, I have to see for myself. Thank you for the ride, Mr. Sparrow." "Your welcome, love." Jack answered automatically. "Wait, how do you know my last name...?"
But Nicola had run off before he could ask.
