[ WP ] The ocean is a scary thing to you . But you made a promise to a friend .

It was so big and vast, a seagull's cry shakes my from my stupor. 
 
 `` It's time to go.'' I grunt and push for raft, one I painstakingly made filled with food, water, clothes, a bag and a small wooden boat replica. 
 
 As the boat splashes into the water, and I climb on to it voices from afar reaches my ears. 
 
 `` Crap.'' I murmur and starts moving the boat, as fast as possible. 
 
 Once the boat moves further into the ocean a voices yells for me, I ca n't make it out but I ignore it. 
 
 If I turn i might go back and break my promise. 
 
.................................................................................................................... 
 
 After a while I sigh and lie down, looking at the sky. 
 
 It was peaceful and beautiful. 
 I grunt and sit up, it was time. 
 
 Grabbing the small wooden boat replica and rummaging through my bag I bring out two felt dolls, one male and one female, look alikes of two connected people. 
 
 My eyes tear up as I hug both dolls close to me. 
 
 
 I have to fulfill my promise. 
 
 Putting and properly securing the dolls to the small boat replica I put it on the ocean. 
 
 Closing my eyes I let a voice of the past, drift to my mind. 
 
 [ Hey **** can you make a promise for me? ] 
 
 A weak croak, a beep of a monitor 
 
 [ `` What is it?'' ] 
 
 Hesitation, fear, determination 
 
 [ Promise me, that you and I will visit the sea? ] 
 
 Hope, unsurety, quietness. 
 
 [ `` Yes, of course! You have to get better then, you promise me that too!'' ] 
 
 Promise, negotiation 
 
 [ Of course. ] 
 
 A smile, softness 
 
 A lie and a promise broken. 
 
.................................................................................................................... 
 
 I open my eyes and sigh, `` I have to keep my promise, even if you did n't.'' 
 Putting the boat on the ocean and I push it, watching the boat drift through the ocean I close my eyes and lie down. 
 
 [ Thank you, for keeping your promise. ] 
 
 I smile as sleep overtakes me.
