Chapter 6
After Noah had brought Randylynn back to the Inn, her parents were divested.
They even considered kicking Noah out of the Inn, but they needed the extra money.
Randylynn's illness was caused by the cold and she was still sick, after 2 days.
The first time Randylynn woke up and saw Noah at her side. "Noah," cough, "weren't we just at the lighthouse?" She asked unknowingly of what happened.
Noah told her about what happened and she was pretty calm.
He was surprised that she didn't get mad at him for being in her room, but she was drugged up on pain relievers and cough medicine.
"Randylynn, today's your parents' anniversary." Noah told her.
Randylynn didn't seem to care, she was half asleep anyways. "Just give them the box...under my bed... I didn't wrap it..." And off she snoozed.
Noah tried to wake her, but she just grunted and turned to her left.
I can't just give her parents a gift she stole, am I? Noah asked himself.
He refused himself to give it to them and walked back to his own room.
About five hours later, Randylynn woke up and was still drowsy.
She walked tiredly to her parents room and saw her mom sitting on the bed reading the newspaper.
"Honey, your up. Are you feeling better?" Asked Mrs. Dauwn.
"Sort of. Where's dad, I want to give you guys something." She asked.
"He'll be up soon. So, dear. Who was that boy you were out on your date with? Isn't he one of our guests?" Mrs. Dauwn asked, eyeing her contagious daughter.
"Yea, but I don't think we'll be going out again." Randylynn sniffed and her mom gave her a tissue.
Up came Mr. Dauwn, holding a wet towel.
He gave it to Randylynn and she said 'happy anniversary' to both of them.
She went to her room and grabbed the box under her bed.
She took a deep breath while listening to her heart that kept telling her "don't give it to them" but her brain was persuading in the opposite direction.
She walked into her parent's room and handed the box to them, apologizing that it wasn't wrapped.
Mr. Dauwn traded the towel for the box and Randylynn promptly placed it on her forehead.
They opened it up and were very delighted by what they received.
Even though Randylynn stole the present, she still liked the look of a happiness on her parent's face's.
"Thank you sweety!" Her mom and dad said at almost the same time.
Her dad also added, "We'd hug you, but you're still sick." Randylynn just nodded with agreement.
Truly in her heart she knew that if her parent's found out what she did they'd probably never want to see their daughter again.
