Kinsley. That gave Debbie too much time alone with Carlos.


    “I’m good. I don’t Like to get wet,” she said, turning him down.


    On the other hand, Kinsley stood up from his chair. Ignoring her refusal, he grabbed her wrist and


    insisted, “It’ll be fun. Let’s go.”


    Then he turned to Carlos.


    “You don’t mind, do you?” he asked.


    “No,” Carlos replied indifferently.

    Since her man had agreed, Stephanie was out of excuses and walked into the water with Kinsley.


    Debbie was aware that Kinsley hade up with this idea for her to do just what Stephanie feared.


    She was grateful and decided not to let him down. Cabin cruisers in different sizes were anchored


    nearby. Pointing at them, she asked, “I want to go sailing. Anyone else?”


    Carlos sat up from his lounge chair and looked at Niles.


    “Niles, didn’t you say you wanted to be out on the water?”


    ‘When?’ Niles wondered. But the threatening look in Carlos’ eyes made him nod.


    “Yeah,” he said resignedly.


    “Let’s go sailing!”


    Carlos got to his feet and walked towards one of the cruisers.


    Debbie turned around to invite Ivan and Kasie as well.

    Kasie shook her head.

    “No, I get seasick. You don’t?”


    “I never get seasick,” Debbie said. Close by, Wesley was mad about something. ir was trying to


    appease him. Debbie decided to leave them be.


    Ivan didn’t intend to go either.


    “I have a video conference soon.


    Sorry, I can’t go.”


    “Alright. Kasie. It won’t be the same without you. Ivan, keep an eye on her, okay?” Debbie patted Ivan


    on the shoulder.


    “Don’t worry. Have fun.”


    “Thanks, bye.” Debbie waved goodbye to her friends who elected to stay behind, and walked towards


    the boat Carlos and Niles had boarded.
