It was finally the day Ceylan has been waiting for. It was now time to go to the mystery location for the family trip. He was all packed with probably more stuff then needed, all his friends knew he would be gone, the only thing he does not have is sleep. He was so excited his could barely sleep at all. The funny thing was that he was still not tired.
"Can we go now?" He said to his parents early the next morning.
His mother and father laughed and his father said, "At least eat your breakfast."
Ceylan was a little disappointed but he was hungry so he went and ate his breakfast anyway.
Over to Violet. She has just woken up and was getting her breakfast ready. Her mother and father are normally gone by the time she wakes up she he had to get everything ready herself. This didn't bother her that much since she was use to it and it was not like her parents are always gone. They normally returned after work and they have their family time before bed, so everything was fine.
While preparing her breakfast she heard a loud knock at the door. At first she didn't answer because she didn't know who it was but then she heard the familiar voice. "I know you are in there Violet! Let me in!"
Violet got up and went to the door to let her friend Melody in. "Sorry Melody. I didn't think it would be you since it was so early."
Melody was a little offended by this. "Come on Violet. It's not like I sleep in all the time." Right when Violet was about to respond Melody corrected herself. "OK I do most of the time but still not 'all' the time."
"Right." Violet said chuckling.
"Either way. I got the whole day planned for today." Melody said super excited by her own activities plan. "First is a movie. Then to the park. After maybe some lunch. Then…"
Before she could say anything else Violet said, "Can I get ready first?"
Melody looked at her and saw she was still in her pajamas. "Sure but hurry up."
Violet giggled and went back to her room. "Right."
Violet put on her normal rose pink shirt with a thin purple jacket. She then but on her blue jeans and purple boots. After she brushed her hair then put it up in her normal up and down ponytail. Once she thought she was ready she took one final check then went down stairs to meet her over energetic friend.
"About time. You ready?" Melody said obviously impatient.
"Yep. Can the first thing we do is get breakfast?" Violet asked.
Melody looked in the kitchen that was next to the front door and saw her breakfast items out just not made or eaten. "Sure. Why not." With that they eat their breakfast.
Back to Ceylan. His family just got in the car and they began to drive to the still mysterious location.
"Where are we going?" Ceylan said really wanting to know.
"You will have to wait and see." His father said with a huge grin.
"Come on! The suspense is killing me." Ceylan said nearly pleading for them to answer.
"I will give you a hint." He mother said which caused Ceylan to pay full attention to her. "It is a popular tourist spot near the ocean."
Ceylan didn't know the place but now he was even more excited. "Why did you do that? I don't know that place but it sure sounds fun. Please tell me."
"Nope. Either wait till we are there or guess where it is." His father said giving him the option.
Ceylan began to think of all the places he knew that were fun. After words he narrowed it down to the places that were near the ocean. The problem was that he couldn't think of any but he kept thinking. His parents watched as he was trying to figure out where it was but then they figured it was time.
"OK. We will tell you." Ceylan brightened up and looked at them with sparkles in his eyes. "It is Seaside City."
Ceylan was confused. He never heard of this place. "What is Seaside City?"
"It is a huge city by the ocean. It is not as big as Benham City but it has many attractions and it is supposed to be a popular tourist spot." His father explained.
Ceylan's eyes sparkled. "Awesome! I can't wait."
"Well, you're going to have to. It takes all day to get there. We might not get there until tomorrow." His father explained.
"Ah man." Ceylan said not really happy that he has to wait that long.
"Don't worry. It will be worth the wait." His mother said trying to cheer him up.
"I hope so." With that he looked out the window and began thinking about this new place he will be going to.
Over to Violet and Melody. They have just finished eating and where already heading to the movie. There was a new comedy movie that Melody wanted to see and was able to get tickets for. Violet really didn't care about the movie. All she cared about was getting an edge sit. She never did like crowded places, so a movie theater was a bit out of her comfort zone. But she wanted to have fun will Melody and a good majority of the time Violet would forget about her discomfort once the movie starts.
When the movie was finally done they both went to the park, and then they went to eat. Once all of that was done Melody wanted to do more but Violet was too tired to continue. "Hey Melody, can we stop for today?" She said sitting down to rest.
Melody looked at her tired friend and said, "Sure. We will continue tomorrow." She gave Violet a hug as a sorry for tiring her out and then she also sat down to rest.
Once Violet was well rested they got up and since it was still daylight and Melody had things to do they parted ways. Before they left Melody told Violet to call her once she was home. In times like that Violet felt like she was talking to her mom. She laughed at the thought and went straight home.
Once she was home she did call Melody but she did not answer. "Come on Melody. You tell me to call then you don't pick up." Violet was a little annoyed since Melody did this often but she had to accept it.
Once she was done leaving the message on the answering machine Violet walked to her room to rest. She had a TV in her room but really she didn't feel like watching it right then. She also had many books but she was too tired to read. Instead she just sat on her bed and looked around her room and did some thinking.
Eventually she came across her photo album and decided to look through it. She saw picture of when she was a baby all the way up through her years. She liked looking back at all the memories. Then she came to pictures of her and Melody. She enjoyed seeing her friend and how much fun they had but at the same time she wished she had more friends. That was when she remembered the boys from Benham c ity. She then reached into her bag and took out the picture with her and Ceylan. She couldn't help but laugh at Ceylan again. Now she really wanted to see him again but she knew it would most likely be awhile before she would be able to see them and him again.
"I wish we could meet again." She whispered to herself while she shed a tear from feeling a little lonely.
Meanwhile Ceylan was napping in the car while heading to Seaside City. He was dreaming about all the fun he would have and in the middle of his dreaming he sneezed again which woke him up. "Ok. Is someone talking about me?"
Back to Violet. The doorbell rang and she heard Melody's voice again. "Violet, let's hang out at your house tell the day is done."
Violet liked that idea and went with it. "Sure but please don't make a mess."
"Well do." Melody said walking straight to Violet's room.
"OH better idea. How about I sleep over?" Melody said with much excitement.
Violet had to smile at the idea. "That sounds great." With that Violet got permission for her parents and they ended up chatting and playing until lights out.
"Better get some sleep. We have an early day tomorrow." Melody said getting ready to go to sleep.
"Alright." With that they both went to sleep excited for the next day.
