The next morning when Luna awoke, she noticed that Derick wasn't sitting by the bed, like he had been for the past couple of mornings. She shrugged it off for his not liking to stay indoors.Luna got out of bed and freshened up. After she was done, she went above deck to see if Derick was there. As she turned a corner, she saw the Al Bhed boy from the day before. She ducked back behind the corner and waited for her heart to stop racing.
They were speaking in low tones, but were close enough to still be heard.
"We'll bide our time," the boy said to his friend.
"When will we give the signal?" the friend asked.
"We'll wait a while and then do it. I want to follow the summoner on this ship for a while."
"But isn't that risky, Braba?" The friend asked. His name is Braba, Luna said. "What if she figures out what we're up to?"
"She won't. We've planned this too well. Let's go get something to eat." Braba said. Luna quickly acted as if she had just come from around the corner.
"Kuut sunhehk." Luna said, trying to sound casual.
"Good morning." Luna heard back. She rounded the next corner to see Derick. She smiled when he turned and looked at her.
"Good morning. Did you sleep well?" Derick asked as he kissed her.
"Good morning. Yes, I did slep well. Did you not want to stay below deck this morning?"
"No. It's so nice out here that I htought that I'd stay out here this morning. Does that bother you?"
"Not at all. I was just wondering. I know how much you love to be outside." Luna said.
"As long as it doesn't bother you. Are you hungry?"
"Not really, but I should eat something. I haven't eaten since breakfast yesterday."
"Are you sure you're not getting sick?" Derick asked.
"I'm sure." Luna answered, knowing the exact reason she wasn't hungry. She was still a little shaken up about what Braba had said.
