"She is beautiful, you must be very proud" she says to Phil, handing back his wallet sized picture.
"Thank you, yes, she's really good to me" he says smiling fully unable to contain his joy.
Jane looks looks off into the ocean, eyes concentrated. The sun is blinding, especially reflecting off the restaruant's white patio. Their luggage beside their table waiting to be taken from under their watchful eyes. phil orders some rice and bean dishes while Jane remains silent looking off into the ocean. Jane returns her gaze on Phil, "Its very bright out here"
Phil replies while gesturing for the waiter, "Yes it is, may we have two rum and cokes please?" The waiter nods and returns to what he was doing prior.
Jane figits with her fork and then returns her gaze out to the beach, watching all the beautiful people walk by. Phil looks into the bright sun and then rubs his eyes, "Janey, you do know everything is gonna be fine? Nothing bad is going to happen?" Her attention returns to Phil, "Yeah I know"
"It won't be but for a day... tops, you now that right"
"The sea is so peaceful today"
"It's an ocean" Phil says in subtle frustration. The waiter comes from the kitchen with the food and drinks.
"Excuse me Senor, donde... donde es.. esta... y Miguel?" The waiter laughs a little at Phil's poor spanish, "Gringo, this is a nice hotel, I speak English and Miguel returns tommorrow." Jane laughs at Phil, "Phil haha i don;t think these people like you butchering their langauge hahha." Phil laughs sarcastically at Jane, "Thats funny, thats funny"

I awaken to a single beam of sunshine beckoning me to start the day. I roll over ignoring its plea and fall back into my dream. Then jolted awake by the alarm yelling at me to get the hell up. wiping the sands from my eyes the day has started. while the shower water runs searching for hot water i step out onto the porch and have a smoke contemplating what was expected of me today. This mundane day seen by all the same. Maybe i should go eat something filling? Maybe i should read that book i've been trying to start? Maybe I should began that book I've been trying to write? Maybe I should finish that story i already wrote? I finish my smoke and take my shower. Then i sit down and watch t.v. and end the day in sedation. falling asleep feeling wasted. another day in the mundane.
