“If you’ve seen all that, maybe you owe me a story afterward.”
Nodding, I giggle and sit on the ground in front of him so I can watch him tell his story. I'll tell him mine too if he's got time. I've never gotten to tell anyone a story! I hope I'm as good as Daddy is.
My eyes widen when he talks about Angels. They're tattletales? No wonder Daddy got in trouble!
“When the sailors woke up, they went to the man and told him what the angel had said, and even though he cried and begged them not to, they bundled him up and threw him over the side of the boat into the deep water. And what do you think happened then?”
Ohh, I know! I know! "Uhmmm," I say, pretending I'm guessing, "A Sea Serpent shows up and eats the man and then wraps around the boat and breaks it into a million pieces!" I spread my arms out cos a million pieces is a lot, "Then it eats up all the other sailors before they drown and it lives happily ever after with sailors squirming in its belly waiting for the next boat of sailors to come?" I smile big and hope that's right. A Sea Serpent wouldn't just let a boat full of sailors go.
