The message

" Good morning ",  Alfred woke up me and said.

 

" It's  cold outside ", I croaked

 

" Hey,  don't  miss the sunrise "

 

" O you are so annoying  ",

 

" I know. The sun is gonna rise kick off the blanket. Come on!", he makes me get up from the sacks.

 

We went outside of the room, the air was cold but it was amazing, it blew away my sleep,

 

" Woah! I am feeling damn fresh ", I breathed the fresh dawn air.

 

" I told you, just a little effort and you get it ", he smirked.

 " Well, do you get up at this same time? ", I asked.

 

" Yeah, don't you?",

" No, I loved sack! but you had ruined our relationship. We broke up ", I joked

" Yeah, of course. Nobody can steal your heart, accept me ",

 

We walked downstairs to my room.

" Hey, I think your granny had woken up, please asked her. I will wait here, but please be clever don't reveal the plan! ",

 

" Ok, see you later ", I said and I step into my room. Granny was making tea.

 

" Good morning ",

 

" Good morning, why didn't  Alfred come? ",

 

" He had urgent  work ",

 

" O, What kind of work? ",

 

" Em... Eh... How should I know ", I said and sat on the chair.

 

" Well, anyway did Queen Blood come last night? ", she asked

 

" Yeah, she throw me a diary ",

 

" Though you are lucky, or else you would have already turned into stone!",

 

" How? ",

 

" I told you that if cursed persons are on a voyage on the same day then, they will turn into stone  ",

 

"Then, how are we safe? ",

 

" The curse hadn't started yet it will take  7 days more.... we are saved from hell ",

 

 

" Sorry granny...", I cried.

 

" Oh, please don't cry, don't build bad memories. It was not your fault, it was just your curiosity ",

 

" Granny, can you show me your diary... Just the cover, I have a very important  reason to ask ",

 

" Oh, well yeah... I wanted to show you a magic",

 

" Magic? ",

 

" Yeah!", she said by opening the lockers and give me the diary. My eyes were just for the cover, I look it carefully and yes, same pattern, seven leaves with a white bottom leaf, and a sun on the exact spot.

 

 

" Why are you staring at the cover ",

 

" Yes! we found the key! ", I mumbled.

 

"What key? ",

 

" Em...Eh... no nothing special. I was talking about...Em ",

 

"Talking about what? ",

 

" Em... pee... I need to pee ", I stammered and run away.

 

" Are you going to pee on the deck, the bathroom is inside the room ", she yelled.

 

I didn't stop and straight toward Alfred, " Alfred! Alfred! ", I shouted.

 

" She is hiding me an important thing ", my granny thought and she sneaked.

 

" You messed it up? ", Alfred fretted

" Messed What? ",

 

" You act terribly ",

 

" Leave the nonsense! You are right, granny's diary's pattern is similar too. We got the key for sure! ",

 

" Ok, then we must not waste any time and send Andrew to my Canadian sailor ", he rushed.

 

" Andrew, you mean your pigeon ",

 

" Yeah, come on ", he pull me into the room and started to write a message, he roll the letter and put it in a small container and tie the container with Andrews' leg and tell him to go, " Good luck, Andrew!", he shouted.

 

 

" How long will it take to reach St John's? ",

 

" He will come back tonight, he is a well-trained pigeon. My friend is way faster than this dump ship ",

 

" Shut your mouth, the captain is coming. He will throw you from this ship ",

 

The sailor giggled. Alfred also giggled.

 

" Why you both are laughing? ",

 

" Mrs. Anna, nobody can kick him out ", beamed the captain.

 

" Why? ",

 

" He is the owner of the ship and that's why this ship name is named Alfred ",

 

" You know my name? ",

 

" Yeah of course. You are one of the most famous people on this ship for your amazing painting ", said the sailor and went downstairs.

 

" How many ships do you have? ", I asked.

 

" Four ships, Alfred, Commodious, Pacific House, and Érable, the ship which is the fastest and which is in St. John's ",

 

" But I think you should also need to call some extra man because it's going to be a long and a hard journey. They might help us to find the island ",

 

" I knew it and I did it ", he pats himself

 

Granny was still listening by leaning on the adjacent wall. She went back to her room.

 

After an hour both came to granny to eat breakfast.

 

" Granny! I am starving ", Alfred croaked. " Wait a minute, I am almost done ", They eat breakfast.

 

" Granny, I am sorry, I misunderstood you, you must leave for the US ", I said and gestured to granny, that I was lying to him but who knows that we were lying to her instead.  Simultaneously, granny thought, " Oh, really! ",

 

" Yeah, granny. You shouldn't give up what you want to do just because of Someone's word... I know it will be hard to convince her parents, especially her fiancé, but I will manage ",

 

" Oh, my kids ",

they pat on both of us,

" Congratulations, you saved a napkin ",  I said.

 

" Oops sorry ", granny apologized and we all laugh.

 

" Granny, we will go back home, the day after tomorrow ", I said

 

" But how? We will not be able to reach St John's",

 

" Actually a ship is on the way to GBR which will pass near to us and on there we will get transferred to that coming ship... the captain of that ship is my friend ", Alfred explained.

 

" Oh, but I heard that you own that ship ", she schoked both of us.

 

" You see, I am not going to be fooled by your hilarious acting, I know you are in search of that island ",

 

" H... How did you know that? ", he gasped.

 

" Yeah, I acknowledge that my face has wrinkles but I have no wrinkle in my brain ",

 

" I am sorry granny. We just didn't tell you because, I want you to meet grandfather, for whom you have been waiting. I thought if I tell you about this you will come along with us and miss your most wanted days... Please, granny, go to the US ", Alfred requests

 

She hugged us and said, " I will miss you ",

 

The pigeon came back. Alfred checks the pigeon's legs and opens the message box. There was a message it was written, " Ok, sir. We are on the way. We will reach tomorrow evening ",
