Stephen even before he could press another button on the chrovonic was interrupted by the house phone. He walked over to the phone saw it was his mother calling and answered.
" Hey Stephen I hoped your ready for the vacation. I'm Ten minutes away. All my stuff Is placed near the door along with your brother's and father's. "
" Yeah all my stuff is there next to yours(He lied). I'll see you soon. Bye mom."
" Bye sweety"
Stephen had completely forgotten about his Christmas vacation to Cuba. He raced down to his room and shoved a fistful of shirts, a clump of swimsuits, a heap of socks and underwear, crammed in his bathroom stuff. Grabbed his phone and the charger snatched his headphones and shoved them into his pocket. As he was leaving his room he grabbed his sunglasses. But he nearly forgot to bring shoes so he unpacked his case and packed in shoes and night clothes in there as well. He had just put his luggage next to his mothers when she popped in the door and helped her load up the car. And they traveled to the airport.
It wasn't until he had made it past the TSA security check that he had forgotten the chrovonic. He was saddened about his loss and fell asleep on the plane. After landing in Havana and checking into the hotel Stephen fell asleep dreaming of having the chrovonic with him.
Stephen woke up from the warm sheets and walked out into the terrace of his hotel room. It was a nice view. The terrace overlooked the harbor and it was an endless view of palm trees waving in the sun and 1950s cars bustling in the streets. Anthony his brother was already dressed for the beach and had ordered room service he observed. He was breaking his fast on eggs and steak swallong cup after cup of orange juice. He helped him self to a few berry tarts, bacon and some milk. After breakfast the the two boys Ubred to a beach a little ways away from the hotel thier parents having great trust in Abthoney since he was 17 years old let them go.
The drive was breathtaking hundreds of palm trees danced in the warm breeze and a perfect blue ocean matched the perfect cloudless sky. They got out of the car and set thier stuff in the shade of the tree line. Anthony stripped of his shirt reveling an athletic torso and suggested that they should race to the water. Stephen after taking off his tank top agreed although knowing he would lose. They sprinted across the warm sand into the cool Caribbean water. There was hardly anyone else on the beach. The nearest person was a couple hundred yards away laying on a towel sun bathing. A distant sailboat was visible steadily venturing on the breeze. The boys played for a couple hours in the water only coming back to the beach to reapply sunscreen.
Stephen could already feel his back starting to take heat.
" I see a food cart over there a little ways away down the road. I'' getting a little famished. I'll go over to it but stay put don't wander off okay and keep your phone close. Do you want anything from the cart?" Said Anthony
" something cool to drink would be better, I'll stay right here. "Answered Stephen.
Anthony left him by the tree line and walked down the road. Stephen sat himself up on the Palm tree base but soon found himself falling fast asleep.
