Escape

While we went back to our cabin, I put the twins to sleep while Starlight was with Daniel.

"Daddy, are you feeling okay?" Starlight was concerned since Daniel's energy was pretty low this evening.

"I'm okay, Starlight. Come, sit close to me." Starlight held on Daniel's hand as she moved closer to him. Starlight stayed quiet for a while. Daniel asked, "Starlight, were you afraid that I was in pain?" She shook her head.

"Daddy, I was worried you were hurt. I don't like you being hurt. It makes me sad." Starlight said. Daniel weakly smiled, "Starlight, you've already helped daddy a lot. Daddy's leg pain is getting better but still it's bit hurting." Starlight nodded.

"Daddy, I love you." Starlight hugged Daniel while he lied on bed. Daniel smiled.

"Daddy, can I sing you a song? I learned it from my friend." Starlight said. Daniel smiled and said yes.

"The wheels on the bus go round n round, round n round, round n round... the wheels on the bus go round n round.. all through the town... " Starlight sang happily. Daniel held onto Starlight's hand a bit tighter.

"Thank you, Starlight. I feel so much better now." Daniel said.

"Daddy, I am here. Go to sleep." Starlight held onto Daniel's hand while Daniel quickly fell asleep. Starlight kissed Daniel on the forehead. Starlight turned off the desk light and went to me.

"Mommy, I put daddy to sleep. Daddy was very tired." I smiled, "Thank you, Starlight. Daddy really need us right now. Daddy is going through hard time." Starlight hugged me and said, "Will daddy get better?" I kissed her forehead and said, "Daddy is going to get better okay? Just make sure he is happy. Okay? Hold onto his hand like you did just now." I told Starlight as she understood.

"Okay, mommy. Goodnight." As she kissed me, I said goodnight to her.

As I went to our room, Daniel was already fast asleep, as I fixed his covers a bit, I went to sleep as well.

In the middle of the night, Daniel's leg pain started again, worse than before. I hugged Daniel and kept him warm since cold will make it worse.

"It's okay, Daniel. I'm here." I said as put his hed against my chest. He fell asleep like a baby, I smiled.

Next morning came, David and James told us the news that Jack escaped from the police and was never found again. We hope can catch him... right now." We all nodded and discussed about possible safety places we can be in.

Jack is one hard man to catch. Since we are still on the ship for 3 more days... we need to find him and lock him up.
