The dark waters of the lake rest before you – a mirror of the night sky. The engine of your father’s Sea Ray hums in the silence, your mother’s favorite music playing from the speakers. You sit there in peace looking around the lake, the little houses lit with warm lights and families laughing at the fire pits outside with their happy stories. You look over to your brother and ask your father to go up top. You’re walking is wobbly, while the wind is blowing through your hair causing your brother to smile and chuckle. You glide through the warm wind with the boat until you arrive at the dock. Rushing to help your parents, leaving the night for bonfires and blue cozy blankets in the cabin.
Awesome.
